Province Offering Fourth Covid-19 Shot

British Columbia is offering a fourth dose of COVID-19 vaccines to seniors, starting with residents of long-term care and assisted-living homes.
Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says those vaccinations have already begun and people over age 70 in the community will be getting invitations in the coming weeks for a second booster shot

She says the province will also be considering a fourth dose for Indigenous people over the age of 55, as well as those who are clinically extremely vulnerable in order to reduce hospitalizations.

Henry also announced that as of 12:01 am on April 8th,  BC residents will no longer have to present a vaccine passport to enter restaurants or other venues.
