Eligibility Expanding for North Algoma COVID-19 Vaccination Clinics

North Algoma's COVID-19 vaccination clinics are expanding in the region.

Organizers say appointments are now being booked for education workers who provide support to students with special education needs, in line with a move announced by the provincial government last week.

Clinics will further expand over the next couple weeks: adults 65 to 69 years old can start booking an appointment on April 21st, and those 60 to 64 can start May 5th.

Appointments are already open for adults 70 and older, health care workers, faith leaders, adult chronic home care recipients, Indigenous adults and their household members, and staff and caregivers in long-term care, retirement homes, and other congregate care settings.

To book an appointment, call Wawa's central appointment line at 705-914-0464, the Dubreuilville Medical Centre, or White River's Northern Neighbours Nurse Practitioner-Led Clinic.
