Quebec aiming to enable 12-17 year olds to be vaccinated before end of June: Dubé

Quebec is aiming before the end of June to enable adolescents 12 to 17 years old to get a first vaccine, following Health Canada’s approval of the Pfizer vaccine for 12 to 15 year olds, Health Minister Christian Dubé announced.
“Our Public Health have told us that we can go forward with vaccinations for 12 to 17 year olds, and that’s very good news,” Dubé said. “The Comité sur l’immunisation du Québec (CIQ) wil give us an opinion that will come in [the week of May 10] confirming the use of vaccines for this age group. Daniel Paré’s (the direction of Quebec’s COVID vaccination campaign) teams are already preparing to vaccinate 12 to 17 year olds and to give a first dose before the end of June. We are aiming to give a second dose for our young people for the next back-to-school period.”
