POINT ROBERTS, Wash. — Point Roberts is offering their excess COVID-19 vaccines to their neighbors across the border.
Fire Chief Christopher Carleton says his isolated Whatcom County community is pretty well covered and they’d like to be able to give their extras to American citizens living in British Columbia.
He said it would be a win-win for both countries if people were vaccinated in Point Roberts without having to isolate for 14 days when returning to Canada.
And Carleton says Canadian citizens who have property in Point Roberts could take a “vaccine vacation,” but the decision rests with higher authorities.
