Vaccine Eligibility expanded

The Renfrew County and District COVID-19 Vaccination Rollout has expanded to the next priority groups.  

Those eligible to receive a vaccine now include: all seniors in congregate care residences, long-term care and retirement Home essential caregivers, indigenous residents 18 years of age and older, people 80 and over, all health care workers and anyone receiving chronic home care.

This latter group will receive a call notifying them that they are eligible and should book after receiving this call.

As well it is also possible to register ONLY if you are born between 1942 and 1946, are a faith-based leader with an increased risk of exposure to COVID-19 through close contact with persons and families coping with end of life care or burial arrangements, home visits to unwell persons or providing pastoral care in vulnerable settings.

Your vaccination will be forthcoming once the line ahead of you has cleared, and is depended on the number of doses received locally.
