Just saw on Global TV how Seattle was using a stadium to vaccinate 20,000 a day and how all of Prince Rupert was being vaccinated at one time this month. Why not Whistler?
We are a tourist town requiring tourists to feel safe to visit us. It would be a great boost to Tourism Whistler and all employees if we were all vaccinated.
The science is not conclusive but it appears vaccinated Whistlerites are [less likely] to spread COVID-19 to the tourists or get [a serious case of COVID-19] after two weeks post vaccination date.
We could then market Whistler as a safe place to visit and again go back to welcoming the world.
The province could copy this mass-vaccination idea for other small towns dependant on summer tourism such as Tofino, Revelstoke and Nelson.
