HOW TO BOOK YOUR FIRST AND SECOND DOSE IN WDG

This is the link to their website which gives a great summary: https://www.wdgpublichealth.ca/your-health/covid-19-information-public/covid-19-vaccine-information/first-and-second-dose First doses remain priority. Pfizer appointments are currently full. Additional Pfizer spots will open when they have inventory to support. Moderna inventory outweighs Pfizer inventory, so for the next week or two they are offering Moderna only as first dose for 18 plus in order to try and match as many mRNA doses as they can ( exceptions for medical contraindications) They continue to make an attempt to match the 1st and 2nd dose mRNA vaccines where possible Those who are eligible for a second dose mRNA, ( please review the info at the link above to find out if you are eligible for a second dose) may book a Moderna dose if they chose this option, or they can wait for more Pfizer spots to open up Another option for clients is to access the extra doses that become available throughout clinic days from no-shows. These extra doses are advertised daily for all mass clinics via Instagram, Twitter, and sometimes carried by local radio. These are a first come first serve basis All 70 plus without an appointment are getting emails or calls this week with information on how to book second doses. Plan is to have this complete by Friday this week. RESIDENTS WHO RECEIVED A FIRST DOSE WITH ASTRAZENECA and choose to receive an mRNA vaccine for their second dose: 1/They are currently booking second doses for this group at an 8-week interval. If you received your first dose more than eight weeks ago, please pre-register so we can send you an invitation to book an appointment. 2/You may get your second dose at a participating pharmacy that is offering Pfizer or Moderna or from your healthcare provider.
