The Province of BC is working with various health authorities throughout the province to make it easier than ever to get vaccinated.
As of August 6th, the BC Government has reported 81.8% of eligible people 12 and older in BC have received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, and 68.9% have received their second dose. Although tremendous progress has been made with the vaccine roll out, the push is now for those who are not yet fully vaccinated to take advantage of the Vax for BC opportunities across BC.
Throughout the month of August, community events, vax vans and mobile clinics will be running in numerous communities in an effort to get more people vaccinated with both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Walk-ins are welcome for those who are eligible, however online booking is encouraged.
For anyone 12 years and older still needing their first dose, or for people eligible to receive their second dose, find the nearest Vax for BC event by visiting www.gov.bc.ca/VaxForBC.
