Health unit prepares for rollout of children vaccines in North Bay area
CTV
As of July 28, children aged five and under are eligible to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
Moderna's vaccine for young ones was approved last week, and starting Thursday, the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit will roll it out.
The vaccine is being offered through appointments only due to limited supply and so each immunizer can spend a significant amount of time with each child.
When it comes to getting the vaccine, the health unit isn't encouraging or discouraging.
"It will be a case-by-case decision. We are neither recommending for or against in this age group, it will depend on individual circumstances," said Dr. Carol Zimbalatti, public health physician with the North Bay Parry Sound District Health Unit.
