The Ministry of Health continues to encourage members of the public who wish to be vaccinated to visit the KEMH Vaccination Centre. Walk-ins appointments are now being accepted. Hours of operation are from Monday – Friday, 4pm – 8pm. And on Saturday and Sunday from 8am to 12 noon.

We have completed the twenty-fifth full week of vaccinations.

Of our most vulnerable group, 87% of those over 80 years old have had one or both vaccine doses, and 80% of those between 65 and 79 years old have had one or two doses.

To date, 64.9% of the total population has been vaccinated (1 dose), and 63.2% of the population has been immunized (2 doses).

The Minister of Health, the Hon. Kim Wilson reminded, “Each of us has a role to play in stopping the spread of the coronavirus. Follow Public Health guidelines, wear a mask, practice good hand hygiene, maintain physical distance and download the WeHealth Bermuda app. Do the research, talk with your doctor and make an informed decision about getting the COVID-19 vaccine. There is a wealth of information about the vaccines online at gov.bm.”
