“The booking was easy and the staff were great,” Facio said in a release. “I will still need to use this mask and social distance for the time being but I feel good knowing that I have an extra layer of defense and am doing my part to protect our community. I encourage everyone to get vaccinated as soon as they are eligible.”

Currently, seniors 77 and older or Indigenous people 55 and older are able to book their COVID-19 vaccine through the Fraser Health website or phone line (1-855-755-2455).

Starting today at noon (Wednesday March 24) seniors 76 and older will be eligible to book their appointments.
