RNAO is calling for the Ontario government to mandate COVID-19 vaccination for all health-care workers. To increase vaccination rates, the provincial government must make it easier and faster for health-care workers to get fully vaccinated by:
On July 20, 2021, RNAO sent an open letter to Ontario’s premier regarding the importance of mandatory vaccination for all health-care workers. We drew on the research of experts to identify the issues and challenges, and to pave the way forward.

Together, Ontarians have faced some of the toughest obstacles of this pandemic. But our work is not over. RNAO has launched a new #FullyVaccinated social media campaign to encourage everyone to receive both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. View our Fully Vaccinated Hall of Fame submissions.
How to participate: Tag @RNAO in your photos on Twitter or @registerednurses on Instagram of you and your loved ones before, during or after receiving your COVID-19 vaccine. Include the hashtag #FullyVaccinated along with your reason for receiving the vaccine. Participants have a chance to be featured in RNAO’s fully vaccinated hall of fame on social media.

In the face of a stubborn fourth wave and the threat of more COVID-19 variants to come, it is paramount that Ontario mandate vaccinations - subject to strict medical exemption - for all health-care and education workers and immediately establish safe zones around all health-care settings, vaccination clinics, schools and child-care centres.
