Health Minister, Tyler Shandro makes his weekly appearance on the Trending 55 Hot Seat today.
A major topic we discussed was recruiting physicians to the rural regions of the province and keeping them there.
He tells us the government is investing $6 million to help prospective rural doctors get through university.
We also covered a wide range of topics including:
- the latest announcement about the around 945,000 people eligible to get vaccinated for COVID-19, starting today.
- how pharmacies have been critical in making our province a leader when it comes to vaccine distribution; and,
- much more.
The full conversation with Shandro can be found below.
