Peel residents 65 and over can now book COVID-19 vaccine appointments at select vaccine clinics
Brampton, ON. (March 31, 2021) – Starting immediately, Peel residents 65 years and older can book COVID-19 vaccine appointments at select vaccine clinics in the region.
Clinics located at William Osler’s Chinguacousy Wellness Centre and Brampton Civic Hospital, and Trillium Health Partners’ Mississauga Hospital and University of Toronto, Mississauga (UTM) sites are taking bookings today. Appointments will be available as soon as next week.
Booking for this age group will be available at Peel Public Health’s six vaccine clinics once the Province releases this age group broadly. Vaccinations for residents aged 70 and older continue at Peel Public Health clinics.
Information on how to prepare for an appointment and what to expect at a clinic is available on our vaccination page. This is a one-stop spot for all residents of Peel to book an appointment to get vaccinated at the clinic of their choice when it’s their turn.
Seniors who have challenges getting to and from the vaccine clinic can use TransHelp. Call 905-791-1015 at least 48 hours before your appointment to make your booking. You don't need to be a TransHelp client to use this service.
