New rule goes into effect today
A reminder, if you have a doctors' note saying you have a COVID vaccine medical exemption, that note is no longer valid.
Under new Ontario government rules that kick in today, you will need an official certificate containing a QR code to enter any businesses or organizations that require proof of vaccination.
The province says anyone with a medical exemption must now ask a physician or registered nurse in the extended class to submit your exemption request directly to the public health unit where the issuer’s practice is located.
Once your exemption is accepted and entered into COVaxON by the public health unit, you’ll be able to access your enhanced vaccine certificate with QR code through the COVID-19 vaccination portal.
