On the first day all Nova Scotians age 80 and up could book their COVID-19 vaccination appointments, the province's booking webpage struggled to keep up with high traffic and had to be disabled for several hours. Within two hours, the department gave an update, again on Twitter, saying the booking page had been disabled as a precautionary measure. UPDATE: The online vaccination booking site is back to normal now. (Nova Scotia Health)So far, 20,011 Nova Scotians have received at least one dose of vaccine and 12,845, or a little over one per cent of Nova Scotians, are fully vaccinated. The online booking portal can be found at novascotia.ca/vaccination, and the phone line for booking is 1-833-797-7772.
