I talk to my sister ,who lives in Chilliwack BC , every Sunday afternoon via messenger

She has told me several times there was no date at all for her getting the jab ,she is 71

Last Sunday though she said she has finally been asked to register and it’s likely she may get it in April but no specific date as yet

It was announced late last week that over-90s and Indigenous people over 65 could phone beginning last Monday (8th) to book appointments beginning next Monday (15th).

Over 85s could begin phoning next Monday for appointments beginning 22nd March

Over 80s could phone beginning Monday 22nd for appointments beginning 29th March.

Sooo ............

some chaos in phone call centre on Monday in our health region, other 4 regions in the province worked well. Monday problems solved by Tuesday.

People were getting appointments almost immediately ..............


New announcement on Tuesday evening .................. over-85s could begin phoning yesterday (Wednesday) instead of next Monday.

We might be able to get our phone-in date advanced as well

Wouldn't that be super?!!!!!

Then they're talking 4 months before the second dose.


The province is not giving the AstroZeneca to over -65s ............. reserving it instead for vaccinating people working in essential industries but not yet had vaccination, eg farm workers, food production workers who can't spatially distance, etc.
