Flu and COVID-19 shots available in Saskatchewan from Oct. 15

Saskatchewan residents may now book appointments for Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) immunization clinics to receive this year’s influenza and COVID-19 vaccines.

Appointments may be booked through the SHA Patient Booking System found at www.4flu.ca, or by calling 1-833-727-5829.

Immunization clinics will start the week of October 15 at multiple locations across the province.

Children aged six months to five years can only be immunized at a SHA public flu clinic, public health office or by a physician or nurse practitioner.

Seniors, people with chronic health conditions and/or compromised immune systems, children under the age of five, and pregnant women are among those considered most at risk of contracting a respiratory illness. High-risk groups and their caregivers are encouraged to get vaccinated as soon as possible. High-dose influenza vaccine is available for all Saskatchewan residents 65 years of age and older.

Residents may book immunizations for themselves and up to five family members in one appointment through the SHA Patient Booking System at www.4flu.ca or by calling 1-833-727-5829 Monday to Friday.

For further information on influenza and COVID-19 symptoms and when to seek care, call HealthLine 811 or visit www.4flu.ca.
