What is the current vaccination rate in Squamish?
Vancouver Coastal Health vaccination clinics continue at Sea to Sky Hotel.
As of Jan. 25, 95% of adults in the Howe Sound region have received their second dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, while 36% have received a booster shot.
Provincially, it is Glacier Media’s calculation that 86.8% of BC’s total population has had at least one dose of vaccine, and 81% of the province’s total population has had two doses. Almost 38% have had their booster doses.
Back in our Howe Sound region, among children aged five to 11 years old, 55% have received a first pediatric vaccine, while according to the BC Center for Disease Control, none in our region have received a second dose.
Other regions, such as in Vancouver, are beginning to clock second pediatric doses.
As of the end of December, Howe Sound has tallied 4,199 cases of COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic.
For the week of Jan. 16 to 22, the region clocked 77 positive cases.
BC Center for Disease Control notes that due to changes in testing strategies in BC driven by the Omicron variant, case counts are likely an underestimate of the true number of COVID-19 cases.
In December, when testing centers across BC — Squamish included — were overwhelmed with patients, provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry told vaccinated people with mild illnesses to self-isolate and not get tested.
On Jan. 26, 949 people were in hospital in BC with COVID-19.
Of those, 136 are in intensive care units (ICUs).
Vancouver Coastal Health vaccination clinics for COVID-19 are being held at the Sea To Sky Hotel on Jan. 31; and through February on Feb. 1, 2, 7 to 9, and 14 to 16. These clinics run from 10 am until 1 pm and again from 2 pm to 6 pm
