The question of whether we will get fourth doses of COVID-19 vaccines, and if so when, gets asked often these days. It’s expected as we have entered what many call a sixth wave of the pandemic in Ontario.

Dr. Stewart says she gets the question all the time, which is a good thing.
A growing number of experts believe the province is in a sixth wave thanks to the more transmissible Omicron subvariant BA-2 and easing restrictions like masking rules.
Local COVID hospitalization numbers have gone up this week too with the number of new high-risk cases reported was 55 on Wednesday.
