Upcoming Public Health Mobile Unit immunization and testing clinics

To help ensure local access to these important services, PHMU will be holding clinics in communities across the province over the next few days. All upcoming clinics can be found online at www.nshealth.ca/PHMU.  

Public Health Mobile Unit clinics offer COVID-19 and influenza vaccines and tests and pneumococcal vaccines for those who are eligible. Additional vaccines may be offered at select clinics.
