Health minister says vaccine boosters will be required every nine months
Canadians will be required to get a COVID shot every nine months for the foreseeable future, says Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos. He told reporters that previous definitions of “fully vaccinated” made no sense.
“Nine months is very clear and will help people understand why ‘up-to-date’ is the right way to think about vaccination now,” said Duclos. “‘Fully vaccinated’ makes no sense now. It’s about ‘up-to-date.’ So am I up-to-date in my vaccination? Have I received a vaccination in the last nine months?”
According to Blacklock's Reporter, when a reporter asked Duclos if he was setting the stage for vaccine mandates to return in the fall, he replied, “We must continue to fight against COVID."
