The Hamilton healthcare partners continue to make progress in vaccinating members of the community who fall into the Province’s COVID-19 Vaccination Framework. We are pleased to announce that to date, we have administered approximately 346,960 doses of COVD-19 vaccine – with upwards of 65.2% of Hamiltonians over the age of 18 and 21.7% of youth ages 12+ receiving a vaccine to date.
Currently,
youth in Hamilton who are aged 12 and older at the time of vaccination can book
an appointment to receive a Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. In an effort to
increase access to COVID-19 vaccines for youth in Hamilton, the Hamilton Public
Health Services mobile vaccination team will be holding mobile pop-up vaccine
clinics in various locations across the city from June 8 to June 14, 2021.
