The upcoming influenza and COVID Vaccine Clinic is online now and can take appointments. Please use the invitation emailed to you by BC Health. Or, call 1 833 838 2323 to book your appointment.

You may only see Influenza as an option, this is due to the timing of the COVID vaccine clinic last May. Go ahead and book for Influenza, and you will be offered COVID at the Clinic, this has been confirmed by Island Health. Note if you call to book please ask to have the COVID vaccine as well. Either way you will be offered both vaccines if eligible on the day of the clinic.

COVID Vaccine types offered at Clinic: Island health is using two vaccines: Pfizer ComirnatyR Omicron KP.2 for those 12 years and older, and Moderna SpikevaxR KP.2 for those 6 months – 11 years of age. Depending on supply we should have both of these vaccines at the clinic.
