You Can Get The AstraZeneca Vaccine At These Sudbury Locations If You Are 40 Years Of Age Or Older

The Ontario Government has now given the green light to vaccinate its citizens who are 40 years of age and older with the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine. In a statement yesterday the Doug Ford lead conservatives announced it would lower the age limit for people who wish to take the AstraZeneca vaccine to the age of 40 and over.

This comes on the heals of record breaking covid-19 numbers across the province over the past several days. However, these vaccines will only be available in certain locations across Greater Sudbury.

More than 1,400 pharmacies across Ontario offer the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine. Starting April 20, eligible Ontarians aged 40+ can contact a participating pharmacy directly to make an appointment.

Should you want the AstraZeneca vaccine and live in Greater Sudbury than you have a few options depending on what part of the city you live in. However, there hasn’t been any confirmation on the number of doses that were made available to local pharmacies. This may mean you will have to book sooner rather than later if this is something that you want.

There has also been concern in other parts of Ontario with vaccine shopping. This is where an individual is given the opportunity to get a vaccine but has chosen not to because they are waiting for a certain brand.

The Ontario Pharmacists Association tells CP24 there is less demand for the AstraZeneca vaccine specifically in the GTA.

The OPA suggests the same age groups are prioritized for Pfizer, Moderna and AZ, leading to vaccine shopping in the GTA. #onpoli
