The province’s GO-Vaxx mobile vaccination clinic is coming to London, Ontario, again this weekend to hand out the first and second doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, along with the third dose boosters.

The bus will make a stop at the East Lions Community Center on Churchill Avenue on Sunday and distribute the vaccine in the parking lot from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

This is the third time the GO-Vaxx mobile clinic has made a stop in Forest City. The bus stopped in the city’s Pond Mill neighborhood last weekend.

Due to the limited number of doses available, each bus carries around 250 to 300 doses per day — Those seeking to get the prick at the mobile clinic are asked to make an appointment in advance. online or by phone at 1-833-943-3900.

Appointments will be available to book from 8 a.m. Saturday, officials say. The health unit emphasizes that GO-Vaxx appointments cannot be made through the local vaccine reservation portal, but must be made through the Provincial reservation website.

The GO-Vaxx initiative is a partnership between the province and the Crown agency Metrolinx, which operates GO Transit.

The mobile clinic, a converted GO Transit bus, has been criss-crossing Ontario to reach residents who have not yet been vaccinated due to barriers including convenience and limited transportation.

For those outside of London who cannot get to the GO-Vaxx clinic, the Middlesex-London Paramedic Service is also operating a separate mobile clinic. Dates and locations can be found on the Middlesex-London Health Unit website.
