Identified as eligible groups under phase 2 of BC’s Immunization Plan, residents will be able to call a toll-free number and schedule their first vaccination appointment.
“We are encouraging family members, friends, and neighbours to help us reach vulnerable seniors in the community and to spread the word that they will soon be invited to book their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine,” Vancouver Coastal Health said.
VCH has identified 25 vaccination clinics within its catchment area, and Fraser Health has designated 22 sites for its immunization efforts.
Both health authorities have designated specific sites that will be focused on vaccinating Indigenous peoples, and will have cultural supports in place.
