Jane Toller, Prefect of the MRC du Pontiac said, "I encourage all residents of 18 years and older to make an appointment to be vaccinated. I am counting on everyone to ensure that we can protect the Pontiac from the virus and its variants. I am grateful to the CISSS de l'Outaouais and the many residents who work to provide mobile vaccination clinics at 5 locations. Please also encourage your children between the ages of 12 and 18 in the schools to receive the vaccination. When we reach 75%, we can receive the second vaccination and feel some freedom. I am very proud of all Pontiac residents. We can do this! Let's go Pontiac! "
