Shoppers Drug Mart: Saskatchewan Enhancing Access to First-Dose Vaccinations

Access to vaccinations is being stepped up this week in order to meet the first dose vaccination threshold of 70 per cent of residents 12 years and older and enable Saskatchewan to reach Step 3 of the Re-opening Roadmap and the removal of public health restrictions.

The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) is creating pop-up clinics in locations around the province to connect with people where they work, live and play.

The SHA is focusing on a dedicated first-dose delivery strategy through a combination of mobile and pop-up clinics in convenient locations like malls, golf courses, parks and some larger workplaces.  There will also be a fast pass lane at some clinics dedicated to people receiving their first dose of vaccine.

The vaccination rates for 12-39 year olds is low compared to those 40 and older.  The first dose initiative aligns with the best opportunities for fast and easy vaccinations for this working age group.

Additional clinics are being considered for recreational areas and work-based locations.  The list of clinics is available at www.saskatchewan.ca/covid19-vaccine and will be updated with dates and times as they become available, including new clinic locations as they are announced.
