Oct 28, 2022 | 11:52 AM

The Saskatchewan Health Authority is warning people of a scam text.

The text says the SHA is sending people $100 for getting a COVID-19 vaccination.

“The only text messages directly from the SHA are for confirmation of booked PCR test or vaccine app’t OR auto-notification of PCR COVID test results,” the health authority said in a tweet Friday. “The SHA does not offer money to residents for receiving vaccination.”
