June 16, 2021 Oakville Coronavirus Update

This is a coronavirus update on Wednesday, June 16, 2021. Oakville will get two new vaccine clinics later this week. One will open on a daily basis and the other will pop up this weekend. Today, Halton has reduced active cases by nearly 20%.

Hospitalizations in Oakville and Halton are declining again, as are the numbers across Canada. However, the number of inpatients in Ontario has increased for the third consecutive day (although the daily increase is modest).

Ontario also vaccinated 200,000 times a day for the first time yesterday, reopening the border between Manitoba and Quebec. We are on track for Step 2, which may resume on Friday, July 2, 2021.

Vaccination continues to be very successful, with 2 million Ontarians and just under 5.5 million Canadians fully vaccinated. Almost 75% of Haltons receive the first dose, as do almost 75% of eligible Ontarians.

** Vaccine Reservation Renewal: As of June 14, Halton has booked and rebooked a second vaccination for all residents who were first vaccinated with the first vaccination before May 9, 2021. The waiting time (Pfizer and Moderna) between the first and second doses of the mRNA vaccine is as follows: 28th day.

Patients who receive AstraZeneca for the first time cannot be vaccinated within 8 weeks if they have informed consent. Medical findings indicate that AstraZeneca is most effective when the waiting time between the first and second doses is 12 weeks.
