Lethbridge and other small communities, pharmacies doing vaccine

Posted on March 24, 2021 by 40 Mile Commentator

From March 15 more than 250 pharmacies across the province began providing COVID-19 immunizations with either Moderna or Pfizer vaccines, the government announced.
The was the first opportunity for Albertans not located in Red Deer, Calgary or Edmonton to choose a pharmacy for the vaccine.
A reporting system between the government and the pharmacy keeps track on a daily basis of appointments made and doses administered.
Anyone between the ages of 65 and 75 currently qualifies for the vaccine.
The government booking system or telephone option through Health Link 811, on March 15, was only taking bookings for people born in 1947 with other birth years to be announced in the coming days.
Pharmacies however are taking appointments for people in all those birth years as long as you are between the ages of 65 and 75, born between 1956 and 1947.
Below are community pharmacies that are participating. You can phone to book an appointment and in some cases book the appointment online.
