Doug Ford government's disastrous performance in vaccinating its citizens so far is totally unacceptable.

They have known for a long time that vaccines were coming and even criticized Federal government for vaccine late arrival but now that vaccines are arriving there is chaos in Ontario. They announced a timetable for vaccinating in Ontario in which 60 year olds and younger have to wait till August for vaccines in Ontario. Doug Ford who used to give an almost daily live interviews has been likely in hiding avoiding tough questions on vaccination delays in Ontario and unacceptable timetable.  

Ontario appears to be behind any other province in Canada. While most provinces are making quick decisions and taking actions Ontario has been giving mixed massages with respect to spacing out doses and AstraZeneca for those older than 65 while the vaccines arrived yesterday.. People are losing their lives and jobs. Every day that we delay in decision making and action more people would sadly die and more businesses will close and economic recovery will be more in distant future. Get your act together, make the right decisions and act quick Ontario.

Is this a troll?  A timetable is chaos?  The reason younger people have to wait until the summer is because there's not sufficient vaccines available.  Talk to the federal government.  Acting "quick" won't change the amount of vaccines.

No you lack understanding of the post or are blind to the facts stated in the post. The other provinces were much quicker to act. For example Quebec ha s started vaccinating general public already vaccinating 75 year olds up and other provinces like BC, Alberta, New Brunswick as well as Quebec announced long time ago that they have decided on spacing out the doses by months and hence getting their citizens vaccinated twice more or twice faster but Ontario always lagging behind and is disorganized  especially in Toronto.. And a quick decision on AstraZeneca which arrived two days ago. If you don't want to give them to 65 and older so give them to 60 to 64 now.

The original timetable as of yesterday was than people younger than 60 to start vaccinating after August not summer as you misstated. That is FIVE months from now for a big majority of population. They are about to make changes now (like deciding on spacing out doses) because we good people pressured them into changing their bad decisions and slow actions.  People are dying and economy is diving so make the right decisions faster and act quicker.

Update!!

I  am pleased to post an update that significant criticisms by various groups and social media of Ontario government's vaccination policies and slow speed worked and today they announced a NEW timetable with new policies (including spacing out the doses by 4 months and offering AstraZeneca to those between 60 to 64). Based on the new timetable all those at highest risk will be vaccinated much sooner than the timetable announced before with wrong policies. All those over the age of 60 will be vaccinated by June not August as was announced before. Every Ontarian who wishes to be vaccinated will be likely vaccinated by end of June.
