Premier John Horgan got his COVID vaccination today at a pharmacy near the legislature. | There are now six pharmacies in the west shore (5 in Langford, 1 in Colwood) where you can get the AstraZeneca vaccine, as well as one in Sooke.

Pharmacies are selected to provide this service based on capacity (staff and physical layout) and in priority communities identified by Regional Health Authorities, says the BC Pharmacy Association. https://islandsocialtrends.ca/premier-gets-astrazeneca-sho/

And there was a strong push to address mental health concerns in more organic, authentic ways. Here's the longer examination of it: https://islandsocialtrends.ca/sd62-to-protect-mental-healt/
