Register for a COVID-19 Vaccination Appointment - Castlegar, Grand Forks, Kaslo, Nakusp, Nelson, Salmo, Trail

Community Health Message posted: 26-May-2021 1:52 PM PDT

Everyone in B.C. MUST REGISTER with the Get Vaccinated provincial registration system including those WHO BOOKED DOSE 1 BEFORE APRIL 6, 2021 as they will not be in the system and won't be automatically notified for their second dose! Those in this situation may include seniors, Indigenous people and people who are clinically extremely vulnerable.

Those who got dose 1 of AstraZeneca/COVISHIELD at a local pharmacy must also register.

Registration makes sure the provincial system has your current email and phone number so you can be contacted to book dose 1 or dose 2.

Spread the word and help your friends and family complete their registration, book an appointment and get the vaccine.

Register online (see link below) or by phone 1-833-838-2323. You'll need your health card number and an email address or phone number that receives text messages.
