With approximately 56 per cent of KFL&A residents aged 60 to 64 years having received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine through the pharmacy initiative in KFL&A, the Ontario government is expanding this initiative to begin booking appointments for adults 60 years of age and older on Monday, March 22, 2021. There are several pharmacies in KFL&A that still have vaccine appointments available.
To ensure that this vaccine gets into the arms of eligible individuals as quickly as possible, we invite all adults 60 years of age and older in KFL&A to make an appointment at a participating pharmacy in KFL&A. For a full list of participating pharmacies, visit the Government of Ontario's website.
In preparation for your booked vaccine appointment, please do not arrive more than 5 minutes before your appointment, come prepared with your health card, wear a face covering and short-sleeved shirt, and adhere to physical distancing inside and outside the pharmacy or clinic.
We understand that residents are ready and eager to receive their COVID-19 vaccine. If you are not yet eligible, consider assisting family and friends who are eligible, especially adults 75 years of age and older who may not have online access or be comfortable booking online appointments. Please DO NOT contact KFL&A Public Health’s main line to inquire about booking appointments, vaccine information, or to check eligibility requirements.
