Waiting to book?

If you are already registered and but have not received your first dose invitation, call 1-833-838-2323.

If you received your first dose before the registration program was in place (before mid-April 2021) OR if you received your first dose through the pharmacy program, you need to register to receive your second dose (mRNA) invitation.

Second dose appointment invites are sent 4 weeks (mRNA)/8 weeks (AZ) after your first dose. Log on to your Health Gateway to view the second dose forecasted date for a rough estimate.

If your forecasted date is overdue or due, you should receive a booking link within the next week.
