Drive-thru clinics in the Battlefords, Lloydminster, Mayor gets COVID shot

Residents in the Battlefords have a few hours to get to the drive-thru immunization at 391 Yellowhead Highway, while those in the border city will now have the weekend and more.

Lloydminster’s clinic at 5521 49 Avenue, the Exhibition Grounds, will take in recipients from 9:00 a.m.–7:30 p.m., today through April 27. The Battlefords clinic closes at 5:30 p.m. this evening.

As per information from the Saskatchewan Health Authority, drive-thru clinics remain on a first come, first served basis with no appointment necessary, while those with booked appointments already are encouraged to cancel those if attending the drive-thru.

Vaccine supply remains limited, which means the clinics may close early if they have administered all product available. Recipients should also note that all of the three approved vaccines will be in use.
