Toronto residents aged 70 and older can start booking COVID-19 vaccinations at city clinics today.
Mayor John Tory announced Friday the city was expanding the eligibility to the age group, urging people to get the vaccine.
He says the number of elderly residents signing up for the shot has been decreasing since bookings opened to those aged 75 and older earlier this week.
Tory says the city has almost 30,000 appointments available over the coming week.
