A construction company in Mississauga is currently hosting a COVID-19 vaccine pop-up clinic open to residents 12+.
EllisDon along with a few corporate partners had initially planned to offer the shots only to workers and their families.
After realizing their vaccine supply far outpaced demand, they opened it up to the broader community aged 12 and up, said Steve Chaplin, vice-president of health, safety and environmental. Getting through this pandemic is a shared responsibility, Chaplin said. We are proud to do our part in helping to get our Peel essential workers, employees, partners, and their families vaccinated to continue to keep our communities safe.
