A representative for Loblaw Companies Ltd. told Narcity over email that some of their locations have already run out of doses and others will run out over the coming days.

Over 28,000 Ontarians have been vaccinated at Loblaw and Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacies so far across the 160 participating locations, the representative said. 

They did not specify which pharmacies had run out or which locations would soon run out of the "limited supply."

Over 300 pharmacies are administering doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine in various parts of Ontario to residents between the ages of 60 and 65.
