Southwestern Public Health, Oxford County, Oxford County EMS, and the Town of Tillsonburg have partnered to open a third mass immunization clinic site.

Today, Southwestern Public Health and its partners announced plans to bring more vaccine to the residents of Oxford County.

The new clinic, which will open on April 27 in the Lions Auditorium of the Tillsonburg Community Centre will serve SWPH area residents who are 60+ weekdays from 9am – 7pm. This announcement is consistent with the health unit’s vaccine playbook which outlined plans for physician, pharmacy, and mobile clinics in addition to several larger, more permanent vaccination sites.

“Southwestern Public Health covers a large geographic region and not everyone is able to travel to our Woodstock or St. Thomas sites. Adding another immunization clinic assists with making vaccine as accessible as possible,” says Jaime Fletcher, Program Manager of the SWPH COVID-19 Vaccine Task Force. “We’re grateful for the strong partnerships making this a reality today.”  

“Our Oxford County Paramedics have played a vital role in supporting the COVID-19 community response, and we are pleased that once again, they are helping to protect our community by leading vaccination efforts at the Tillsonburg COVID-19 vaccine clinic,” says Michael Duben, CAO of Oxford County. “It is important, in order to help protect the safety of our communities, to reduce barriers to getting vaccinated wherever possible.”

“Having a vaccination clinic located in Tillsonburg is welcome news indeed,” says Mayor Stephen Molnar. “I’m relieved that seniors and other individuals who find it difficult to travel outside the community, including the regional population that our community serves on a regular basis, will now be able to access the vaccine locally. I want to thank Southwestern Public Health for working with us to make this clinic a reality.”

To ensure the safety of all who attend by avoiding crowds and line ups, the clinic is available by appointment only. To book an appointment go to www.covidvaccinelm.ca or call 226-289-3560 (Toll Free 1-888-333-2175).

Individuals who are 75+ and having difficulty with the booking system are welcome to add their name to the region’s “Help List.” Southwestern Public Health staff assist those on the list with appointment booking. The Help List can be found at: https://forms.swpublichealth.ca/COVID-19-Help-List
