COVID-19 vaccination clinics head outdoors to reach small children across Ontario
Family physician Dr. Nili Kaplan-Mirth has organized dozens of outdoor clinics over the last year in Ottawa, including most recently two "Junior Jabapolooza" events featuring live music in that city's Glebe neighbourhood.
To date, Kaplan-Mirth and her team of Ottawa Jabapalooza volunteers have administered more than 300 doses of the child-sized Moderna vaccine to little ones in the nation's capital. To keep things light, organizers distract the kids with bubbles and give each person vaccinated a little certificate. Oliver said it’s a good idea to get children vaccinated against COVID-19 before school starts as masking in schools is optional and there’s a “long way to go in terms of improving the ventilation” in these facilities.
