As of Sunday, 39.6 per cent of eligible New Brunswickers — in other words, those aged 12 and older — have had both doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.
Meanwhile, 78.3 per cent of those eligible have received just the first dose of a vaccine.
According to the province’s Path to Green reopening, it’s hoped the third phase will come into effect on New Brunswick Day, Aug. 2, as long as 75 per cent of eligible New Brunswickers are fully vaccinated.
At that point, the province would move to the Green level, and all restrictions would be lifted.
