Homebound seniors are not getting COVID-19 vaccines on time, 97-year-old Toronto man says
Dr. Samir Sinha, Director of Health Policy Research at the NIA, who helped developed the rollout for homebound seniors in Toronto, says health officials have identified about 6,000 individuals who will be immunized at home.
“The good news is in the last few weeks we’ve actually vaccinated close to 2,000 homebound individuals,” Sinha said. He adds there are number of logistical challenges and it will take months to vaccinate every homebound senior.
