VACCINATIONS

To date, 54 per cent of residents are fully vaccinated.

The health unit offers several immunization clinics across the region, including walk-in centres for residents who don't have an appointment or want their dose sooner.

The walk-in clinics are open to eligible residents 12 and older who wish to have an mRNA vaccine (Pfizer or Moderna).

Residents who received Pfizer or Moderna for their first shot can get their second dose at least 28 days later.

Those who received AstraZeneca first need to wait eight to 12 weeks before getting their second dose of either the same or another shot.
