Press Release
(Kahnawake – 25, Tsothohrhkó:wa/January 2022) The Kahnawà:ke COVID-19 Task Force wishes to advise Kahnawa’kehró:non that this week will be the final opportunity to get a COVID-19 vaccine at the Mass Vaccination Center, located at Mohawk Bingo on R-138.
“Friday, January 28th, will be the last day for vaccination at the Bingo Hall,” said Lloyd Phillips, Commissioner of Public Safety. “The demand is not high enough at this time to maintain the many human resources that we have on site”.

The Kateri Memorial Hospital Centre will offer limited vaccination appointments starting in March at the hospital.

Please note that this week’s clinics are now open for the following groups:
- Children 5 to 11 years old, for 1st and 2nd doses
