Toronto to ramp up COVID-19 vaccine clinic operations in response to Omicron’s COVID-19 vaccine clinic
The National Vaccine Centre (NVC) in Ottawa is also ramping up the number of its vaccine clinic operations and has committed $250,000 to the clinic since the pandemic began.
Vaccine clinic operations at the NVC are ramping up following the COVID-19 pandemic and to continue providing vaccine to Canadian children until the outbreak is over.
“We are at high risk of becoming extinct, and we need to make sure we provide Canadians with vaccines when we have the most need. The NVC is ready to begin providing vaccines again when the time is right,” says Dr. Joanne Gibson, the president and CEO of the National Vaccine Centre (NVC), who has been in charge of the clinic since its opening on June 1, 2020. The NVC is the largest provider of vaccines in Canada.
The NVC has operated vaccine clinics at the NVC’s main facility in Ottawa since the early months of 2020, and the clinic at the NVC’s Toronto location has been fully operational since March 1, 2020.
“Providing vaccines was important given the COVID-19 pandemic, but it’s only possible if there is sufficient capacity,” says Dr. Joanne Gibson, the president and CEO of the National Vaccine Centre (NVC). “The NVC in Ottawa is ramping up so that it has enough capacity to treat children from across the country as the pandemic continues, and the NVC in Toronto is ramping up so that it has enough capacity to treat children from across the country as the pandemic ends. And, of course, we’ll be able to provide more vaccines when we need them.”
Vaccine clinics at the NVC are currently able to accept and treat vaccine requests from all levels of government and to serve children of all ages and genders affected by COVID-19.
More details about the NVC’s vaccine clinic operations in Toronto, Ottawa and the rest of Canada will be available later this year.
