Confirm your eligibility
To confirm that you are eligible for vaccination, please visit Ottawa Public Health’s COVID-19 Vaccine Eligibility Screening Tool. Residents who were eligible in previous weeks remain eligible today and throughout the Citywide vaccination process. If you are unable to book an appointment when your eligibility is first announced, you can still receive the vaccine at a later date.
Book your appointment
If you are eligible, please call 613-691-5505 to book your appointment. Service providers can take your call between 7:30 am and 6 pm, Monday to Friday, and 8:30 am to 4 pm Saturday and Sunday. Service is available in multiple languages.
We know that there is a high demand for these vaccines, so we expect very high call volume for these bookings. If you cannot reach a call agent, you can leave a message and someone will call you back to book an appointment. In addition, more community vaccination clinics will open across the city after a provincial booking system is put into place and vaccine supply increases. Eligible residents will also be able to book at these locations at that time. More information on the clinics and how to book will be available next week.
Walk-ins will not be accepted, so please call in advance to book your appointment.
We are asking residents who are not eligible for these clinics not to call this booking phone line, as it is only for eligible residents. Please help us keep phone lines open for those who are eligible to receive a vaccine.
Bookings for Ottawa residents 90 and older will begin Wednesday, March 10. Residents are asked to not call the booking line before then as agents will not be able to book an appointment in advance of this.
Accommodations will be made for residents who need help with accessibility and all clinic locations are accessible. If you are a Para Transpo user, you can book your ride to the pop-up clinic through the COVID-19 Vaccination Trip Reservation line at 613-842-3600. If a transportation option is not available to you, you can request a ride to and from the clinic when you book your vaccine appointment.
