The health unit is aiming to ramp up its vaccination efficiency in the coming weeks through several channels.
Southwestern Public Health medical officer of health, Dr. Joyce Lock, says arrival of the Moderna vaccine will help with mobility.
In addition to putting more people through the immunization clinic at Memorial Arena in St. Thomas, Dr. Lock adds the health unit will be investing more doses to reach people in several different ways including vaccination at pharmacies.
To assist area residents over the age of 80 in booking a COVID-19 vaccination appointment, Southwestern Public Health is establishing a help list.
These individuals or their caregivers can call and add their name to the list.
Dr. Lock explains what happens next.
