The newly launched “VaxTO” campaign to connect residents with #COVID19 vaccination appointments and info continues to roll out. Starting today, nearly 650,000 broadcast voice message calls from @johnTory will be sent to phones in priority neighbourhoods.
The campaign's first major event, a telephone town hall, is scheduled for Wed, Jun 2 at 6 p.m. The event will provide Torontonians with an opportunity to ask questions related to the #COVID19 vaccination program directly to @epdevilla @JohnTory and @ChiefPeggTFS.
Since the campaign launched on Wed, the City has received 1,000+ texts per day to the text line from #Toronto residents looking to access resources. By texting “VACCINE” to 1-833-750-0888, residents can be connected with appointments & info, with more functionality soon to come.
