The covid booster shot clinic on Tuesday was a success, with just shy of 200 persons attending. We had nine Island Health staff and nine TIVFD & TIVFD Auxiliary persons on site, and because it was a Booster Shot Clinic the Province loosened the “social distancing” regulations, which allowed for a better flow and a smoother running clinic.
The Goodings loaned two HEPA Filter air exchange systems to continuously clean the air during the event. Pot of Gold donated the coffee, and the Thetis Island Community Fund supported the juice and snacks for the post-shot waiting period. A special thank-you to Dr. Michelle Sutter for sitting at the intake table to greet people upon entry, and to be on stand-by with our designated clinic First Responder in case of a medical emergency.
Thanks as well to all who attended this Whole Community event, despite the chaos of the Provincial sign-up system.
