Full list of participating pharmacies is below
Islanders still looking to book their first COVID-19 vaccine shot now have 26 pharmacies across P.E.I. from which to choose, according to a government news release.
A release Wednesday morning said that because vaccine supplies have increased, an additional 14 pharmacies can offer the Moderna vaccine to anyone aged 18 and over who has not already received a first dose of vaccine.
"Pharmacists are thrilled to be part of this important vaccination effort in our province," Erin MacKenzie, executive director of the P.E.I. Pharmacists Association, said in the release.
"With additional opportunities to receive the vaccine in our communities, we will be able to get more Islanders protected in a shorter period of time."
As of June 19, the provincial COVID-19 website shows, 77.5 per cent of Islanders aged 12 and up had received at least one shot of a vaccine. That amounts to 108,974 people, and 20,080 of those had gotten both required shots.
