Booking process open to those aged 80 and over
The provincial vaccination booking system was launched on Monday. Dr. Kit Young Hoon, medical officer of health at the Northwestern Health Unit (NWHU), said there were a few technical glitches, but many residents were able to book dates for vaccinations.
The online booking system is currently only available to those aged 80 and older.
Populations that are currently eligible to receive the vaccine that are not 80 years and older include healthcare providers and Indigenous or Métis adults. These individuals must complete the NWHU survey so that the health unit can send their information to the ministry. The survey can be found on the NWHU’s COVID-19 vaccine booking webpage.
