COVID-19 Vaccines
Most local clinics will only offer Moderna vaccine with a limited supply of Pfizer vaccine reserved for select populations. There is currently a provincial shortage of Pfizer vaccine supply.
Moderna/Pfizer are mRNA vaccines. Since same technology, they can be safely mixed and provide strong immune response to protect against severe illness. There is no evidence on an increased risk of myocarditis with third dose of Moderna, which is a lower dose compared to the primary series.
Select clinic locations will continue to have Pfizer vaccine available for primary series (first and second dose) for individuals 12 to 17 years of age and Paediatric Pfizer vaccine dose for individuals 5 to 11 years of age.
There is adequate supply of Moderna for 18 years and older third doses. Those under 18 years of age are not yet eligible for a third dose.

Pop-up clinic locations for Children 5 to 11 years of age
- For children 5 to 11 years of age ONLY. Children are eligible to receive the vaccine after their fifth birthday.
- Appointments must be booked
-
Out of an abundance of caution, when receiving COVID-19 or other vaccines children 5 to 11 years of age are recommended to wait:
- 14 days after another vaccine before getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
- 14 days after the COVID-19 vaccine before getting another vaccine.
Note: Vaccine clinics in KFL&A fully endorse The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) recommendation for children 5 to 11 years of age to wait 8 weeks between dose 1 and 2. A longer interval means better vaccine safety and more durable and robust immune response. With informed consent children 5 to 11 years of age may receive their second dose before the 8 week interval
