PHSD Warns COVID-19 2nd Dose Appointment May Need to be Rebooked

A local health unit's warning you may need to rebook your second vaccine appointment.

Following the provincial government's decision to accelerate doses of the mRNA vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna, Public Health Sudbury and Districts is warning that all second dose appointments that had been scheduled for a clinic on or after July 12th in the Sudbury and Manitoulin Districts will be cancelled and need to be rebooked, with limited exceptions.

Those who had their appointment booked for after July 12th based on the 112-day interval will need to rebook, though anyone who's already eligible for an accelerated second dose and has already rebooked their appointment isn't affected by this, nor are appointments booked through primary care or pharmacies.
