Walk-ins for first and second COVID-19 vaccinations are available at several venues across York Region starting July 21.

The Region of York says walk-in vaccinations for all eligible people who live, work or attend school in York Region will help to improve access to COVID-19 vaccines.

Due to an increase in vaccine supply, York Region COVID-19 vaccination clinics are now offering both Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna mRNA vaccines.

Appointments are still available for those who prefer to book one in advance.
