A fourth dose of the Covid vaccine will be available for more people.
Starting Thursday April 7, 2022 those who are 60 and over as well as First Nation, Inuit and Métis individuals and their non-Indigenous household members aged 18 and over will be able to go and get a fourth dose of the vaccine to help protect against the virus.
