Another shipment of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Rapid Antigen Tests is on the way for licensed child care workers in Thunder Bay.
Officials with the District of Thunder Bay Social Services Administration Board (TBDSSAB) confirmed this Monday following the provincial announcement Saturday that the workers and educators would receive priority status for COVID-19 vaccination.
The Ministry of Education will be sending tests and PPE to service system managers to distribute to community-based licensed child care centres.
Centres located in schools will be provided with tests by their school board.
The shipment of rapid tests is expected to arrive in the middle of January, with distribution sites in Thunder Bay, Marathon, and Greenstone.
