To register, people need their personal health number(found on their CareCard or on the back of their driver’s licence or BC Services Card), their postal code, first and last name, date of birth and an email address that gets checked regularly or a phone number that can receive text messages.

Registration is the first step. Once registered, people will be contacted when it is their turn to book a vaccine appointment. People over 63 have already been invited to book.
