July 2, 2021

We are pleased that the Province has announced that youth can book their 2nd dose earlier than the planned August date starting Monday, July 5 at 8:00a.m. Youth in Leeds, Grenville and Lanark can book their second dose as early as 21 days after receiving their first dose of Pfizer. Getting youth fully vaccinated before school starts will help to protect our youth and school communities.

What does this mean for youth who attended community clinics in June?

If you received your first dose of COVID-19 vaccine at one of the community clinics listed below, you will be automatically booked into a second dose clinic during the last 2 weeks of July with an appointment at the same time and same location as your first dose.  The Health Unit is in the process of confirming the dates for these second dose clinics; and will notify clients by phone or email of the second dose clinic date and appointment time by Friday, July 9.

If you received your first dose at one of these community clinics, you will be booked into a second dose clinic at the same location and the Health Unit will notify you by phone or email of the date and time of your appointment:

  • Lanark Village – June 11
  • Gananoque – June 14
  • Elgin – June 15
  • Athens – June 17
  • Perth – June 23
  • Prescott – June 24
  • Carleton Place – June 26

NOTE: Other residents who attended these community clinics will also be booked into the new July clinics and will be notified of the date and time of their appointment by email or phone by Friday, July 9.

What about youth and other residents that did not attend one of the community clinics listed above, and would like to book an earlier second dose?
