Similar to other pop-ups, the initiative is meant to make first and second doses more accessible for people throughout the summer, and to provide immunization without people necessarily having to travel to a vaccination clinic.

The clinic will be located at the šxʷƛ̓ənəq Xwtl’e7énḵ Square in front of the VAG and will operate from 10 am to 7 pm.
