Vaccination: second dose available for Moderna and AstraZeneca


Vaccination

Quebecers vaccinated with Moderna or AstraZeneca products can start making an appointment for their second dose, depending on their age category.

Thus, those aged 50 and over can go to Clic Santé as of today to plan their second vaccine, as was already the case for people vaccinated with pfizer's product. Eligible groups decline by five years each day, until they reach the age of 18 on June 23. 


Quebec will receive 1.6 million doses from the manufacturer Moderna this week, 500,000 more than expected over the next two weeks. 

Moderna's vaccine is particularly used by pharmacies, due to its ease of storage.

As for AstraZeneca's vaccine, it was already available without an appointment, but will now be available by appointment. Those who wish to do so will then be able to choose another type of vaccine, if they are worried about the risks to their health with the AstraZeneca product.
To date, 700,000 people have advanced their appointment to get a second dose.

THE PRESS BRIEFING IN BRIEF

71% of 12- to 17-year-olds received a dose of vaccine or made an appointment, exceeding other age categories.
Minister Christian Dubé invites the 178,000 Quebecers aged 18-34 who have still not been vaccinated to make an appointment.
A portal to obtain vaccine evidence will be available tomorrow, minister Christian Dubé announced.
"Get vaccinated for your second dose before the end of the summer," insists Dr Horacio Arruda to prevent a fourth wave of the virus.
Changes to the yellow and green alert levels will eventually be announced in connection with the gatherings, says Dr. Horacio Arruda.
