london ont morgue Bodies stored in refrigerated trailer after morgue in London, Ont., reaches capacity Southwestern Ontario's largest morgue has the capacity for 28 bodies As the pandemic's deadly second wave continues, southwestern Ontario's largest morgue has reached capacity in recent days, forcing the London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC) to bring in a refrigerated trailer to store bodies. This weekend, the forensic pathology unit for the London network of hospitals reached its 28-bed capacity and officials brought in a mobile unit to store bodies until the backlog can be dealt with. "New processes due to the pandemic have resulted in increases in the time needed for securing appropriate arrangements, and have necessitated additional interim body holding solutions," Glen Kearns, the hospital's chief information officer and integrated vice president of diagnostic services, said in a statement. "The use of an alternative body holding solution by LHSC is a temporary measure that has been implemented specifically to allow for continued support of the needs of our patients and their families, the regional coroner's office and Ontario's death investigation system," ont-high-rate Hospital figures reach pandemic highs as Ontario reveals more details about vaccine rollout 245 currently sick enough to require the use of a ventilator in the province The announcement comes amid mounting criticism around the pace of Ontario's rollout of vaccines and on a day when the province saw more than 3,000 new cases of COVID-19 and hospitalizations reached pandemic highs.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he's troubled by the slow pace of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout and is vowing to raise the lacklustre vaccination numbers with premiers during a conference call later this week. Canada already has received more than 424,050 doses of the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines — but only 35 per cent of those doses have been administered by the provinces, with roughly 148,000 Canadians having received a shot so far. Ontario's vaccination program has been particularly slow: just 50,000 doses have been administered in the province since the inoculation campaign began on Dec. 15. If the province continues to administer an average of just 2,500 shots a day, it will take over a decade to vaccinate all adults in the province.
