The chief medical officer of health said he knows it’s been a challenge to book vaccine appointments for youth between 12 and 17 while Pfizer appointment slots are few and far between. “I want to reassure parents that they're still getting their kids, teens vaccinated well before school,” Strang said. “Initially this age group was anticipated to be vaccinated at the end of September, even into October.”
Sometime soon, Strang said, he expects a Health Canada decision allowing Moderna use for people under 18 years old, which could fix the problem. In the meantime, Strang asked that children and those booking appointments for them be patient, and that adults who can sign up for a Moderna second shot. The top doc said he’s been concerned to hear of people waiting on a preferred vaccine type.
