COVID-19 vaccine appointments for 50-plus in ‘hot spots’ will fill up fast, city hall warns – Ottawa Citizen
Apr 09, 2021
While the provincial government announced that Ottawa residents born in 1971 and earlier and living in three postal codes will be able to book COVID-19 vaccinations, city hall warned that spots at community clinics will fill up fast.
The provincially-designated “hot spots” include postal codes starting with K1T, K1V and K2V.
“There is not enough vaccine supply to allow everyone aged 50 and older who live in these high-priority neighbourhoods to book an appointment in the provincial booking system today,” the City of Ottawa said in a release Friday.
“As such, appointments at community vaccination clinics are expected temporarily book up quickly following the system’s launch for appointments up until April 30.”
