While Canadians raced to get vaccinated against COVID-19 early in the pandemic, only 15 per cent of the population had their updated shot this fall. But the virus is still spreading.

Weird. I live in Ottawa and it was literally just walking into my local SDM. I got it and my annual flu shot at the same time.

Sadly unsurprising that this sort of thing is not consistent across the country.

Alberta here. I had no problem walking in to the local pharmacy and getting my COVID booster and flu shot.

Of course, my province probably has the lowest vaccination rate in the country so there is that.
