| Eligibility |
|
Peterborough Public Health has created a Vaccine Eligibility Tool to determine which groups are eligible to book a vaccine appointment in Peterborough region and how to book.
"Notify Me" Campaign
Peterborough Public Health has launched its "Notify Me" campaign today to make it easier for residents to find out when they can receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
All residents need to do is visit the Peterborough Public Health website to sign up with their email address and indicate which group(s) they want to be notified about. When local clinics and healthcare providers are ready to serve that group in the coming weeks, Peterborough Public Health will send an email to those on the mailing list explaining how to book a vaccination appointment.
