Current Events > Vaccinated in Canada

(+) Yeah! (+)

Living in a wealth country pays off. We have the vaccine (kind of). Canada lowered the age to 40. (already 16 in Illinois). Canadian friend filled out 30 online vaccine forms before he found a location with 2 vacancies.

I am guessing that he used the browser fill function and the Canadian locations use a standardized form but still. I am impressed.

I think the problem in Detroit and Chicago is that the fed distribution by population does not count students, tourists and tourists who never left. I do not even think that the acknowledged undocumented resident percentage of 10% was taken into account.

You can register even under 40. I did just yesterday.

Although I assume you're kinda bottom of the list.

I registered on Tuesday when 35+ was eligible, but have yet to receive an appointment booking e-mail.

Those as young as 18 can registered in BC as of today.

Canada's vaccine roll out feels slow compared to the US but how are other countries doing?

A big part of stuff like the 40+ limit is also on Doug Ford ****ing up Ontario as much as he possibly can before he leaves next year.

I dont know about other countries but slow is a very kind way of saying it. Canada has been absolutely trash at the roll out. Its improving but still a joke.

And the whole bringing telus into it debacle. At least in bc and Alberta. It may not have been nation wide for all I know but wtf was that even about?

Not too mention needing to beg for doses from the US when we apparently had a ton of money paid out up front to be at the front of the line... I dont even know how it got ficked up so bad.
