What you need to know as B.C. opens COVID-19 vaccine bookings for people over 90 on Monday – Global News
Health officials are urging people who are not in the correct age cohort — in this case, anyone born after 1931 — not to call in this week.
B.C. will begin accepting appointments for COVID-19 vaccines for people over the age of 90 and Indigenous people over the age of 65 on Monday.
