Before You Book
York Region Public Health COVID-19 vaccination clinics offer paediatric and adult COVID-19 vaccines to eligible individuals six months of age and older. COVID-19 vaccination appointments are currently by appointment only. Please refer to the Book an Appointment section for clinics and appointment booking.
People five years of age and older should consider delaying getting a COVID-19 booster until the fall of 2023. This will maximize protection against COVID-19 before the 2023/2024 fall and winter respiratory season.
Masks are not required in COVID-19 vaccination clinics. York Region supports people who wear masks or face coverings in public settings and clinics.
We ask residents to be respectful when interacting with public health staff and members of the community. Any form of harassment or abuse will not be tolerated.
Before you attend a COVID-19 vaccine clinic, it’s important you prepare for your COVID-19 vaccine
Booster doses are recommended for all people aged five and older to maintain their protection against the ongoing risk of COVID-19 infection.
Booster
Consider delaying a COVID-19 booster dose until the fall of 2023. This will maximize protection against COVID-19 before the 2023/2024 Fall and Winter respiratory season.
To get a booster, you must have received a complete primary series of COVID-19 vaccines. For most people, this means two doses of an approved vaccine. For individuals with a weakened immune system, it means three doses of an approved vaccine.
Everyone eligible for a booster dose must wait six months after their previous dose or six months after a confirmed COVID-19 infection before receiving a booster dose. At a six-month interval, the vaccine response tends to be stronger and the protection against COVID-19 disease lasts longer.
In-home vaccination request
York Region Public Health offers in-home vaccinations for York Region residents who are unable to leave their home. Call Access York at 1-877-464-9675 to see if you qualify for an in-home vaccination. In-home vaccination appointments may take a few weeks to arrange.
