Queen’s Park is to receive a familiar face as Ontario’s new top doctor.
The Toronto Sun is reporting they have learned from sources that Dr. Kieran Moore, the current medical officer for Kingston, Frontenac and Lennox and Addington Public Health, is to replace Dr. David Williams.
Dr. Williams’ retirement was delayed due to the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario.
Dr. Moore, who has been with KFL&A since 2011, will assume his new role as of June 7, working alongside Dr. Williams until taking over effective June 26.
The move is pending the passing of a motion to be tabled in the legislature. An announcement is expected to come Monday, May 31, 2021, from Ontario Premier Doug Ford.
myFM reached out to KFL&A Public health who say they do not have any comments to share at this time.
