To boost or not to boost? Ontario expands fourth shots to all adults

Guest: May Warren, Toronto Star reporter

Fourth COVID-19 vaccine doses are now open to all Ontarians older than 18 years of age. Ontario’s chief medical officer of health Dr. Kieran Moore made the much awaited announcement to expand eligibility on Wednesday, but the tone of the announcement left many confused. Dr. Moore said that healthy, currently vaccinated people continue to have significant protection against the worst effects of COVID, and can, if they want, wait for a new vaccine in the fall that will better target Omicron variants. So, should you get a shot right now or not? Reporter May Warren helps you make that decision.
