North Island residents can now get second dose of COVID-19 vaccine

Invitations are now being sent out to Sayward residents looking to get their second shot of the vaccine.

Island Health says those over 80 who were vaccinated in late March should be eligible to get their final dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. 

The clinics will be held in Sayward before July 1st.

The health authority says once the dates are confirmed, notifications will be sent out to the community at least 48 hours before bookings open.
