For members of Black communities
Scarborough Health Network’s VaxFacts Clinic, in collaboration with the Black Physicians’ Association of Ontario (BPAO), is pleased to offer a separate stream for Black communities to access culturally-safe vaccine information. This VaxFacts service is meant for members of Black communities to have a safe space to discuss vaccines with a trusted healthcare provider who is also from the Black community.

Learn more about BPAO and COVID's impact on Black communities
The Black Physicians’ Association of Ontario is a not-for profit organization that established the Black Health Vaccine Initiative (built in partnership with the Black Health Alliance and community partners) to address Black health inequities related to the pandemic.
Black communities are disproportionately impacted by the burden of COVID-19. Because of experiences in anti-Black racism, vaccine distrust is higher in Black communities than any other group. It is imperative that Black communities have access to health resources meeting their diverse needs, including access to Black culturally-safe care and resources regarding COVID-19.
