Appointments have been added in Yellowknife for those who received their first dose between January 23rd-30th.

These appointments will take place the week of March 1st at the Centre Square Mall as well as first dose appointments to priority groups.

Anyone who books earlier than their designated week will be turned away and asked to reschedule.

The NWT Health and Social Services Authority has finalized the vaccine schedule for all NWT communities to allow all residents who received a first dose to plan for their second.

This also allows residents in remote communities to get a second chance at a first dose.

A final clinic was added in Fort Good Hope on March 8th and 9th. To date this is the only clinic scheduled for that week.
