Some Albertans who already received 1st COVID-19 vaccine dose wonder when they’ll get 2nd shot
Some pharmacies offering the shot are telling patients different information.In the Global Edmonton newsroom alone, three people who received AstraZeneca vaccinations at three different pharmacies were told different information about their second doses.One person booked a tentative second appointment, dependent on supply, four weeks after the first dose. The manufacturer recommends 28 days between doses.In a statement Alberta Health says pharmacies are expected to follow provincial guidance.“Pharmacies should not currently be offering second doses unless they are for individuals who booked those appointments prior to March 10, when Alberta changed its approach.
