Special to WC Online

DUNROBIN – West Carleton Secondary School (WCSS) will play host to a pop-up Ottawa Public Health (OPH) Immunization clinic Wednesday, be. 7.

The clinic is open to infants and children up to the age of 18 and no appointment is necessary.

“Routine immunizations for children should be kept up to date because any delay or omission in scheduled vaccines puts children at risk for common serious childhood infections, such as pneumococcal disease, measles and pertussis,” OPH staff released in a statement.

The clinic is for children who are:

  • A newcomer to Canada
  • Without an OHIP card
