Appointments are available at booking-peel.secure.force.com. Appointments are available from 2 to 8 p.m. on Saturday (July 17) and 1 to 8 p.m. on Sunday (July 18).
While it runs contrary to the medical expertise, Peel Public Health is allowing residents who had a Pfizer first dose to specify that they wish to receive it for their second.
Pfizer is currently the only vaccine that it is approved for youths age 12 to 17 to receive.
