Toronto vaccine clinics will be open throughout the Easter weekend to continue to vaccinate all people age 70 and older against COVID-19.
City officials confirmed in statement that the sites have enough COVID-19 vaccine supply and staff to remain open over Easter to get as many people vaccinated as soon as possible. Appointments are still available on Good Friday, Saturday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday. Residents born in 1951 or earlier are encouraged to book now to secure an available appointment.
When attending an appointment, people can bring someone to assist them – whether with transportation, mobility, translation or any other need. The City has information on booking options, clinic maps, accessibility information and transportation options all available on www.toronto.ca/covid-19.

For those not sure which clinic location is most convenient or looking for directions, a map of vaccination options in Toronto is on the City’s COVID-19: Vaccine Clinic Locations webpage: www.toronto.ca/COVID19vaccinemap.
When a person with an appointment arrives at a City-operated clinic and has parked in the free parking or been dropped off, there will be signs leading to the clinic entrance, including to accessible entry options.
Those scheduled for vaccinations are urged to arrive no more than 15 minutes early for an appointment. If there is a line, there will be staff outside and chairs and water available. The City has added clinical and non-clinical staff to all clinics to ensure a speedier intake process. The entire vaccination process should take around 30 minutes.
