Ontario recently opened up COVID-19 vaccinations for anyone over the age of 18, which means more people will be getting vaccinated soon. In light of this, the staff at Princeview Dental Group in Etobicoke would like to reassure our patients that we’re doing everything we can to ensure a safe environment for everyone in our clinic. Throughout the pandemic, we’ve been closely following all COVID-19 health and safety measures to ensure the well-being of our staff and patients and minimize the risk of spread of the virus.
Vaccines contain trace amounts of pathogens and viruses. The idea is to introduce these foreign cells into the body so that the immune system can recognize them and produce antibodies that can fight the virus off in the future. Ultimately, the goal with the COVID-19 vaccine is to create herd immunity. When a certain percentage of a population get vaccinated—in this case about 70%—this can effectively stop the spread of a deadly virus. Here are a few reasons why you should consider getting a COVID-19 vaccination as soon as possible.
At Princeview Dental Group, we take the health and well-being of our patients and staff very seriously. For our part we’ve implemented the following health and safety measures to limit the spread of COVID-19:
