Over the past few months, vaccination suppliers experienced shortages and delays in Canada.
Mahmoud Khodaveisi, medical officer of health with PMH, says Manitoba isn’t the only province to experience shortages and delays and that all provinces and territories had the same experience.
Manitoba Health has received its full order.
Khodaveisi thinks, because the full order has been received, there will be enough flu vaccines until the end of the flu shot campaign.
Khodaveisi says Manitoba Health and Health Canada are working to make sure next year is a lot smoother.
The last day to get the flu shot in Dauphin is on Friday, November 29th from 9 am to noon at the Dauphin Community Health Office. Call 1-877-646-3888 to book an appointment.
