Another Doses after Dark COVID-19 vaccination clinic is being held today (Saturday, Feb. 12) in Mississauga.
Starting at 1 p.m. and running until midnight, Peel Public Health is hosting the vaccine clinic that increases access to Peel residents who are unable to get vaccinated during regular clinic hours at Rockwood Mall, 4141 Dixie Rd.
The extended clinic hours will offer all eligible residents the flexibility to get their first, second or booster dose during hours that fit their schedule.
Walk-ins only, no appointment needed and the clinics will provide first and second doses to children ages 5 to 11.
To ensure a spot, residents can still book an appointment through the Provincial booking site.
“Vaccination remains the cornerstone of protection for our residents against severe outcomes related to COVID-19,” said Dr. Lawrence Loh, Peel’s medical officer of health.

“With our community starting to reopen as the Omicron wave resolves, it’s critical for everyone who is eligible to get their best protection: two doses and a booster.
“We recognize many Peel residents work in jobs where traditional clinic hours don’t align with their personal schedules. Doses after Dark aims to address this situation by extending hours to make it easier to get protected.
“I encourage all eligible residents to get vaccinated and boosted as quickly as possible.”
