The Urban and Away from Home Indigenous Vaccination Clinic opened its doors with an opening ceremony this morning (Tuesday).
The clinic will be available on May 11th, 13th, 14th, 18th, and 19th to provide first-dose vaccinations to First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people living in the Prince George area.
Local Drum Circle, Thundering Eagles performed at the ceremony, and band member Robert Goats from Ulkatcho First Nations was the first to receive his shot at the clinic.
He says the experience was a little nerve-racking at first, but once he entered the clinic his nerves were eased.
