Matawa Vaccine Clinics On Hold

Vaccination clinics for some northern First Nation members are facing delays.

The Matawa Health Co-operative has immunized nearly 600 people from its nine First Nation communities so far against COVID-19.

However, officials say they don’t know when they will be able to hold another clinic, adding that many people are still waiting for their shot.

They’ve held clinics in Thunder Bay for Matawa members and in Aroland First Nation.

The other eight Matawa communities are Eabametoong, Marten Falls, Neskantaga, Nibinamik, Webequie, Constance Lake, Ginoogaming, and Long Lake #58 First Nations.
