In Ontario, COVID-19 vaccines are available at no cost to everyone aged six months and older, regardless of citizenship or immigration status. You do not need to have an Ontario health card.
Getting vaccinated and staying up-to-date with your COVID-19 vaccinations is the best way to remain protected against the most severe outcomes of COVID-19 infection, including hospitalization and death.
Vaccination may not always prevent symptomatic infection, but it will help reduce severity if a person does contract the virus. It also decreases the risk of developing post COVID-19 condition, also known as long COVID.
