Description

Guest: Megan Ogilvie & Kenyon Wallace, Star reporters Last week, Ontario expanded eligibility to testing and antiviral treatments such as Paxlovid for high-risk individuals as the sixth wave of COVID continues to gain momentum. Paxlovid is now also available with a prescription at dozens of pharmacies across the GTA. But questions still remain around how to get a dose of the drug, where to find it and why those who need it the most in the hardest hit areas are still finding it a challenge to get a COVID treatment pill that could keep them out of the hospital. Star reporters Megan Ogilvie and Kenyon Wallace have the answer to your most pressing questions. This episode was produced by Saba Eitizaz, Alexis Green and Matthew Hearn
