Upcoming COVID-19 vaccine clinics
Prairie Mountain Health is hosting COVID-19 vaccine clinics next week for ages six months old and up for first, second, third and fourth doses, if eligible.
All clinics will have walk-in and booked appointments, or walk-in only, as indicated.
- Brandon — Shoppers Mall near Smitty’s (1570 18th St.): Sept. 15, from noon to 5 p.m.
- Carberry — Community Centre — (500 Stickle Ave., walk-in only) Sept. 14, from 6 to 8 p.m.
Children five to 11 can now receive a booster dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. A minimum six-month interval between the last dose and the booster dose is recommended. Health officials also recommend that children who are eligible to get a booster dose but were recently infected with COVID should wait three months to get a booster dose.

Live music will be provided by The Three Berts and Murray McIntyre, and lunch will be served. All ages are welcome to enjoy a night of social time and dancing.

Changes to traffic routes
As part of ongoing construction on the new Daly Overpass, the City of Brandon announced Friday that traffic going through the intersection of 18th Street North (Highway 10) and Parker Boulevard has been reduced to single-lane traffic in each direction, from Maple Avenue to McGregor Avenue.
Motorists can still use Stickney Avenue to access 18th Street North, and for local access to Fred Brown Way and Maple Avenue.
Traffic delays are expected to be in place until Nov. 4.
