B.C. Pharmacists Ajit Johal and Mark Zhou are the founders of Immunize.io, a not-for profit organization dedicated to improving immunization rates locally, nationally and globally. Since 2018, the pharmacists have been facilitating access to vaccination services through their partner locations and onsite workplace and community immunization clinics. They also provide support for vaccination campaigns in developing countries through their “1 for 1” program. For every vaccine provided here in Canada, immunize.io donates one to the developing world to reduce the number of people dying from vaccine-preventable diseases.
Ajit is most passionate about healthcare education, as he teaches at UBC within the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Science. He is the voice and face behind immunize.io education webinars and media spotlights!
