COVID 19 Vaccinations
What you need to know about getting a COVID-19 vaccination
Getting a COVID-19 vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect against COVID-19 and prevent the spread. Vaccines will be available at no charge over the course of 2021 to everyone in Canada. Health Canada recommends everyone 16 or 18 years and older, depending on the type of COVID-19 vaccine, should get immunized.
We are currently providing COVID-19 vaccines to patients aged 75+ by appointment only.
Walk-ins cannot be accommodated, please book your appointment in advance. The vaccine requires two doses booked 38 to 42 days apart. We recommend you book both appointments at the same time and at the same location.
Due to high demand and limited supply of the vaccine, there may be delays in your ability to book an appointment. Rest assured, we understand the importance and are working hard to accommodate as many people as possible within our capacity.
