Eligibility to Receive the COVID-19 Vaccine
2025 Spring COVID-19 Immunization
- Starting March 31 until June 14, 2025, select Saskatchewan residents will have access to an additional dose of an age-appropriate COVID-19 vaccine. The additional dose of the COVID-19 vaccine is recommended to be given at least two months from the individual’s last COVID-19 vaccine dose. COVID-19 vaccines have been shown to be highly effective in preventing severe illness, including hospitalization and death due to COVID-19, and can also decrease the risk of Long COVID (also known as post-COVID-19 condition).
- The following groups at high risk of severe COVID-19 illness and outcomes are eligible for this free additional dose:
- Adults 80 years of age and older;
- Adult residents of long-term care facilities, personal care homes and other group living settings for seniors;
- Individuals six months of age and older who are moderately to severely immunocompromised due to an underlying condition or treatment; and
- Adults aged 65 to 79 years old who are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 and have been previously vaccinated this year/this fall, may also receive an additional dose.
- Until June 14, 2025, individuals 6 months of age or older who are not yet immunized with a 2024-25 COVID-19 vaccine or those who need to complete a primary series can receive immunization.
Note:
- Children aged 6 months to 4 years may require additional doses, depending on their vaccination history.
- For individuals who are immunocompromised, the recommended number of doses and intervals depends on their vaccination history.
- Refer to the COVID-19 Vaccine pages in Chapter 10 of the Saskatchewan Immunization Manual for more information on the COVID-19 Vaccines and schedules for immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals of all ages.
- For a COVID-19 vaccination appointment, individuals can check the Walk-in Clinic List and the SHA Patient Booking System for availability in their area. If a clinic is not listed in their area, they can call their local Public Health Office. For questions, they may call 1-833-727-5829 between 8:45 a.m. and 4:45 p.m. Monday through Friday.
