Mobile COVID-19 vaccination clinic keeps rolling

The clinic is a joint effort between Alberta Health and the Industry for Vaccination, a broad coalition of businesses, to help extend Alberta’s vaccination campaign.

All Albertans are strongly encouraged to get fully vaccinated as soon as possible.

“The mobile COVID-19 vaccination clinic is part of our ongoing work to vaccinate as many Albertans as possible. Last week alone, 625 vaccines were administered on this bus, with more than half being first doses. Every Albertan who gets vaccinated helps reduce the spread of COVID-19 and the stress on our health system. Thank you to our partners in the Industry for Vaccination Coalition and everyone who is stepping up to get vaccinated.”Tyler Shandro, Minister of Health

The mobile clinic can provide up to 300 vaccinations per day, ensuring all Albertans who want the vaccine have easy access to it.
