All clinics offer the Pfizer vaccine customized for children of this age group.
SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO - Southwestern Public Health is opening its doors to children for COVID-19 booster vaccines.
Starting today, children between the ages of 5 and 11 must be accompanied by a legal guardian at the Health Unit’s family friendly clinics. Appointments are by walk-in only.
This expansion in eligibility follows the National Advisory Committee on Immunization’s recommendations on the use of a first booster dose in children of this age range.
Children at this age with underlying medical conditions are at increased risk for severe outcomes and are recommended to receive a booster dose. This may include children who are medical fragile and/or have medical complexities or who have immunocompromising conditions. These conditions include diabetes, heart or lung disorders, neurologic or neurodevelopmental conditions, cancer, obesity, Down Syndrome, anemia, renal disease or hemoglobinopathy.
The full schedule of dates, times, and locations is here.
The schedule includes Mass Immunization Clinics and Mobile Clinics operated by Southwestern Public Health as well as GoVaxx Bus Clinics operated by the province. All clinics offer the Pfizer vaccine customized for children of this age group.
