Residents 85 and over, or anyone who received a shot before February 15th is eligible Monday for their second dose of COVID-19 vaccine.
First doses continue to be given to those 20 and older.
Vaccination appointments can still be made online or over the phone.
However Regina’s drive-thru clinic is closed until Wednesday.
To date 66 percent of adults 30 and over have received at least one dose of vaccine in Saskatchewan, a date for phase two of the province’s re-opening plan will be announced once that number reaches 70 percent.
However we’re now less than two weeks away from phase one taking effect, which will be on May 30.
Phase one will include private indoor gatherings of ten people.
Wow! Another record-breaking day for vaccinations, with 18,995 shots administered – our highest one-day total to date
More than 3% of SK’s entire population has been vaccinated in just the past 2 days. That’s actually the fastest pace of vaccination in the world right now. [1/2] pic.twitter.com/la00lHK0CB
