68 residents and 31 staff have tested positive at Copernicus Lodge. My grandparents (101 & 94) are tenants in the apartments, meaning they have a kitchen & are more independent than LTC residents. Because of this distinction they aren't being offered the vaccine. #COVID19Ontario https://twitter.com/StarGTANews/status/1345532209474592769
2. Every day, a staff slides a piece of paper under their door, outlining how many more of their friends have been transferred to hospital, or died.

I just got off the phone w my grandma, who is just basically waiting to develop symptoms at this point.
3. The vaccine can’t come fast enough. I don’t have the heart to explain to my grandma that they don’t currently qualify. @TOPublicHealth pls address this technicality and get them in line ASAP.

They have a new great-grandkid to meet. #COVID19Ontario #ltc
To be clear, there are outbreaks in both the #ltc and apartment sides of @copernicuslodge. My grandparents - ages 94 & 101 - basically can’t get in line for the vaccine because they have a unit w a kitchen. Copernicus says technicality rests w @TOPublicHealth #COVID19Ontario
