PORT ALBERNI — Island Health’s mobile COVID-19 immunization clinic will be in Port Alberni this week on the next leg of a Vancouver Island-wide tour.
In the coming weeks the Vax Van team will visit popular recreation and commercial areas in communities across the Island, making it more convenient that ever for anyone age 12 and over to get their first dose of vaccine without an appointment.
