Western Health would like to reassure the public that H1N1 mass immunization clinics will continue throughout our region. Western Health would like to ask for the public’s continued patience as we attempt to get everyone vaccinated.
Western Health will be providing numbers or waitlist tickets just an hour before the clinic starts. In doing this, we hope to make the process of mass vaccination as fair and equitable as possible. Once we run out of vaccine for that particular clinic, we will be asking people to be patient and return again at our next scheduled clinic.
Western Health would also like to remind parents that children between the ages of 6 months and 3 years of age who require a second H1N1 vaccination will be called by their local community health office to arrange for an appointment. Children between the ages of 3 years and 9 years who have a chronic condition (such as asthma) and require a second H1N1 vaccination are asked to contact their local community health office for an appointment.
As part of the H1N1 immunization registration process, persons are required to have their MCP Card with them at the time of registration. People are asked to wear short sleeves or easy roll up sleeves.
All residents will have access to the H1N1 vaccine. Western Health will update the schedule as more information is available. The Provincial Government, working with the Regional Health Authorities, will monitor the mass immunization program as it rolls out and changes may be made to the existing plan.
If people have questions or concerns please call 1-877-632-H1N1 (4161).
