Letter to Ontario government
On Feb. 10, 2021, RNAO sent a letter to Ontario's premier and minister of health regarding nurses' thoughts and priorities on the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
The key points conveyed are as follows:
- prepare for large‐scale immunization starting in March;
- engage public health and community providers;
- prioritize right: focus on the elderly and target vulnerable populations; and
- do not allow vaccines to distract us from a potentially devastating third wave.

Ontario’s vaccination roll-out has stumbled out of the gate. Please take a moment to set things right. Join us in urging Premier Doug Ford to start Phase 2 of the roll-out by putting vaccinations into the hands of the thousands of nurses, physicians and pharmacists working in community care across this province.
