Ontario's chief medical officer of health Dr. Kieran Moore announced Thursday that as of Feb. 18 at 8 a.m., COVID-19 vaccination booster shots will be available for people aged 12 to 17.

Premier Doug Ford announced Monday the province would be lifting more measures first on Feb. 17, including increasing social gathering limits to 50 indoors and 100 outdoors, removing capacity limits where proof of vaccination is required on restaurants, bars, cinemas, casinos and other indoor venues. They will also expand capacity for sports arenas and concert venues to 50 per cent.

Ford also announced that the province will be dropping its proof of vaccination requirements for all settings as of March 1, if public health and health system indicators continue to improve. Masking will remain in place, but a timeline for lifting that measure will be announced at a later date.

On March 1, in addition to eliminating the proof of vaccine requirement, Ford also announced capacity limits on all remaining indoor public settings would be lifted.
