The GO-VAXX bus is making a stop in Oakville.

The Ontario Government’s mobile COVID-19 vaccine clinic will be rolling into the Trafalgar Park Community Centre, located at 133 Rebecca St., on March 7 from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m.

The mobile bus will be administering COVID-19 vaccine, including booster doses, to those aged five and above.

Local residents can book an appointment or walk-in.

The GO-VAXX bus is a partnership between the provincial government and Metrolinx and provides a convenient way for people to receive their COVID-19 vaccine.

A fully functioning vaccine clinic with the necessary staff and supplies, the GO-VAXX buses are travelling to malls, festivals, community hubs and events throughout the summer and fall across the Greater Golden Horseshoe Region.

If you would like to get vaccinated at a GO-VAXX bus mobile clinic, remember to:

• bring your health card — if you do not have a health card or if it’s expired, bring another form of government-issued photo identification such as a driver’s license, passport, status card, or birth certificate
• eat and drink something before you arrive at your appointment to prevent feeling faint or dizzy while being vaccinated
• dress for the weather in case there is a line-up
• wear clothing that allows for easy access to your upper arm, such as a loose-fitting top or a t-shirt
• wear a mask that covers your nose, mouth and chin

Do not visit the GO-VAXXbus if you have symptoms ofCOVID-19.
