Thank you for that question.
There was a concern initially, but as leaders, the other day in our province the president of Manitoba Metis Federation, David Chartrand; as well as Dr. Kettner, our public health officer in Manitoba; Dr. Postal; I myself; and another health professional took the flu shots. I believe that at least it gave people some confidence in the vaccine themselves. Therefore, the numbers have actually increased in the last few days.
As I've stated, in the community of Cross Lake there were 2,000 vaccinated yesterday. Cross Lake is a population of, I think, 6,000 people, so they're probably just about done today or, if not, in the next few days.
In the communities where this took place, it has really increased in terms of the people coming out to get vaccinated. So we're encouraged by the response and the turnout in the last 24 hours. We're very grateful and pleased to see the turnout in the communities in Manitoba.
