NACI also strongly recommends a second booster for people between 70 and 79 years of age. In general, the group says a second booster dose should be given 6 months after the patients got their first booster shots factoring in a recent COVID-19 infection.
The bill, designed to support Canada's independent media, is modelled on an Australian law making tech companies such as Google and Meta pay for news content on their platforms.
Health Minister Adrian Dix says the possibility of a second booster dose is on the agenda for today's COVID-19 briefing with provincial health officer Dr. Bonne Henry.
There are 321 individuals hospitalized with COVID-19 and 36 are in intensive care. An update on number of deaths related to COVID-19 will be provided on Thursday, April 7, 2022.
