Quebecers 12–17 can book their second vaccine dose after four weeks

Teens can now get fully vaccinated sooner.

According to Quebec Health Minister Christian Dubé, Quebecers aged 12–17 can now make appointments for their second vaccine doses after only four weeks have passed since they received their first shots.

“Good news. Young people aged 12–17 can now bring their appointment up to four weeks or more on ClicSanté, like all adult Quebecers. Public Health has given its approval. This possibility offers greater flexibility.”

Four weeks between COVID-19 vaccine doses for teens as well as adults in Quebec

As announced on July 5, all Quebecers over 18 are also able to schedule or reschedule their second vaccine doses for four weeks after their first appointment, reducing the mandatory wait time from eight weeks.

Vaccine passports will soon be available to double-dosed Quebecers to allow access to non-essential goods and services should there be another wave of COVID-19. This plan was announced in order to prevent another lockdown.
