Alberta is expanding the availability of booster doses to protect Albertans and the health-care system against the highly transmissible Omicron variant of the COVID-19 virus.
Starting December 15, 2021, the following can now book a third dose as long as it’s been at least 6 months since their second dose.
- Albertans 50 to 59
- All health-care workers
Keep in mind that Albertans 60+ and other high-risk groups are already eligible.
All Albertans 18 to 49 will eventually be able to get a third dose at least 6 months after your second dose.
Third doses are the best way to boost your immunity to improve protection against new variants and limit the spread of COVID-19.
Word of the Day
Boost: to increase, to improve
