Shoppers Drug Mart opens 24-hour COVID-19 vaccination sites in Ontario


20 locations in provincial 'hot spots' will provide appointment-based and walk-in vaccinations

TORONTO, April 20, 2021 /CNW/ - Shoppers Drug Mart announced today that 20 stores will provide 24-hour COVID vaccinations, starting as early as April 21. The initial roll-out of stores will primarily focus on hot spots in the Greater Toronto Area, including north Toronto, Peel and Scarborough. Residents aged 40 and older can book appointments online (https://covid-19.shoppersdrugmart.ca) or by phone. These locations will also accept walk-ins wherever possible.

"As Ontario continues to battle the third wave of COVID-19, our stores and pharmacy teams are stepping up to support our patients and communities," said Jeff Leger, President, Shoppers Drug Mart. "With the Ontario government's recent announcement making more Ontarians eligible for vaccines, we believe 24-hour sites, particularly focused on the communities hardest hit in this wave, will help protect more people, quickly."
