Here it is a 10 minute wait for the same reason (as is the rule for most vaccinations -- in theory at least) I suspect there have been some rare reactions given the vast number of shot given across the country.
It's the same with the flu shot but it isn't really enforced like they've been doing with the COVID shots.
IME it depends where I get the flu shot (AHS site vs a pharmacy for example) how much it is enforced. I got both my COVID shots at the same place so I can't speak to enforcement of waiting times in that comparison
I have been getting my flu shot at the pharmacy in my grocery store before we start shopping, so then I am in the store for probably 20 minutes or more after.
I have not bothered with flu clinics in a while. Ever since they started offering it in pharmacies, it has always been easier to do it that way. I have three pharmacies within a ten minute drive, whereas health unit clinics tend to be further afield and I can't combine it with shopping or other trips.
Despite availability of contraception in todays world, my hunch is this spike in birthrate was not a planned one.
I saw a baby picture on FB. The kid's t shirt said "My parents didn't socially distance".
Not much different than here with the 70% minimum.
I think it's a bad idea but not a huge surprise.
Yeah, that's really the big concern now. The high schools are covered and middle schools/senior public schools in areas that separate them from elementary (like Waterloo Region where I went to school), but the elementary kids still don't have an option.
Yeah, in some areas it's pretty low. Even here, I'm not thrilled with the rate, it's been a few days. Lack of supply seems to be the biggest problem here.
