Provincial Health Dr.

Henry said the affected woman, who was in her 40s and in the Vancouver Coastal Health region, is now stable, emphasizing the condition is extremely rare and can be treated.

Symptoms to the rare side effect include a persistent severe headache, chest or abdominal pain, shortness of breath and swelling or redness in a limb.

“We can be confident that those who have received an AstraZeneca vaccine here in B.C., it is an excellent vaccine.

The clinic will take place at the Killarney Community Centre from May 8 to 14, May 17 to 21 and again from May 25 to 28.

Interior Health said Thursday that all people aged 18 and above living in the Golden local health area will now be invited to book their first dose of vaccine.

All workers, whether they are unionized or not, will get information from their employers on how to register and book appointments online, as well as an access code.

Henry said about 300,000 people between the ages of 12 and 17 in B.C.

Currently, anyone 18 and older in British Columbia can register for their vaccination now if they have not already done so.
