Phase 2 (March to July 2021): Roughly 8.5 million people in groups such as seniors, those living and working in high-risk congregate settings like shelters, front-line workers, individuals with high-risk chronic conditions and their caregivers and others facing barriers related to the determinants of health across Ontario who are at greater COVID-19.
Phase 3 (August 2021 and beyond, depending on availability of vaccines): Remaining Ontarians in the general population who wish to be vaccinated will receive it.
