Second Dose Schedule听

厂迟补谤迟颈苍驳听, June 24, all Saskatchewan residents who have received their first dose of vaccine will now be eligible to receive their second dose following a 28 day interval.

Anyone previously eligible based on age and anyone who received their first dose on or before May 15 are now eligible for their second vaccine.听 Reminder: once eligible to receive your second dose, you are always eligible.

Second doses are also available in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District to all residents 18+, based on the product's recommended interval from their first dose.

Individuals diagnosed with or being treated for cancer and those who have received solid organ transplants will receive a letter of eligibility in the mail that will allow them priority access to a second dose.听

A limited number of first doses of AstraZeneca have been administered since May 5 to those individuals who have contraindication for mRNA vaccines.听 If you received AstraZeneca as recommended by your health care provider after May 5, arrangements will be made to administer your second dose based on current, recommended intervals.

When all persons 12 and older become eligible to receive their second doses starting听June 24, second doses can be completed any time after 28 days.听 With the Delta variant circulating in Saskatchewan, it remains recommended that all residents receive second dose vaccinations as soon as you are eligible.听

Remember that while one dose of COVID-19 vaccine provides good protection against transmission, two doses are required for optimal protection.听 Please receive your second dose as soon as you are eligible and maintain all public health measures until at least two weeks after your second dose.

As advised by National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) on June 17, Pfizer and Moderna (mRNA) vaccines are interchangeable for second doses.听 Residents who received Pfizer or Moderna as their first dose should take whichever of those two vaccines is available to them when they become eligible for their second dose.听 If you received AstraZeneca as a first dose, you may also receive either Pfizer or Moderna for a second dose.听 Both mRNA vaccines have been approved by Health Canada as safe and effective and allow residents to become fully vaccinated as soon as they are eligible.

During your second-dose appointment, the clinic or pharmacy will validate the timing and brand of your first dose to ensure you are receiving your second dose within the recommended timeframe.听 The type of vaccine available at each location will be advertised.听 Additional information on how to book your appointment is available at听.

Limit COVID Transmission in your Community - Get Tested听

Getting tested assists the monitoring of active cases in the province, particularly with variants of concern in Saskatchewan.听 听Even if experiencing mild symptoms, stay home and seek a COVID-19 test.听 听Even if you have been recently vaccinated, it can take up to three weeks for your immune system to respond from a first dose and two weeks after a second dose.听 Vaccines are not a cure preventing all possible transmission and you remain at risk of contracting COVID-19 during that time.听

COVID-19 testing is available to all residents.听 You can still receive a referral for COVID-19 testing through HealthLine 811 or a health care provider, and drive-thru testing sites are available without a referral seven days a week in Regina, Saskatoon, Yorkton and Prince Albert.听 Information on symptoms to watch for and how to get tested is available at听
