Brantford Today – CanAge report on vaccinating seniors gives Canada a failing grade
Laura Tamblyn Watts is the CEO of CanAge and said current levels of vaccine adoption in our nation’s seniors outside of COVID-19 is “nowhere near” where it needs to be to keep seniors safe. Speaking to national statistics, Tamblyn Watts said we should have anywhere between 80 to 90 per cent of seniors vaccinated for illnesses like influenza, pneumonia and shingles. Right now, that percentage sits around ten per cent.
