Vaccines for Kids under 5
Health Canada has approved the use of the pediatric Moderna COVID-19 vaccine for children 6 months to under 5 years of age. This is the only COVID-19 vaccine authorized in Canada for this age group. It is half of the dosage of the Moderna vaccine (50 mcg) offered to children 6 to 11 years of age. Parents/caregivers will be able to book appointment as of July 28.

We are pleased to invite families to bring their young children who are ages 6 months to 4 years old to get the COVID-19 vaccine at our clinics.
