The HKPR District Health Unit is now is now offering walk-in times at its mass immunization clinics for people ages 50 years and older, as well as individuals who are immunocompromised.
Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Natalie Bocking, is hopeful the availability of walk ins will encourage more people 70 years of age and older to get their booster dose.
As of Monday, 50.5% of eligible residents ages 18 years and older in the Health Unit region have received a booster.
Eligible people can walk in for a COVID-19 vaccine dose from 1-4:30 pm on days the Health Unit is running its clinics in Cobourg, Colborne, Brighton and Campbellford.
