Fall Immunization Program

Early immunization means you are protected sooner. Influenza and COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective ways to help people stay healthy and prevent serious illness.

Influenza and COVID-19 vaccinations are free and available at all Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) influenza and COVID-19 clinics across the province, some physician and nurse practitioner offices, and at participating pharmacies.

All individuals six months and older are eligible to receive free influenza and COVID-19 vaccines. Children aged six months to four years can only be immunized at SHA influenza and COVID-19 clinics, public health offices, or by a physician or nurse practitioner. Influenza vaccine is recommended for all children 6 months to 4 years of age as they are at increased risk of serious illness and complications from influenza illness.

While all eligible individuals are encouraged to receive influenza and COVID-19 vaccines, getting influenza and COVID-19 vaccines is especially important for people most at risk of serious illness, and their caregivers. Those most at risk of contracting COVID-19 illness are: 

  • adults aged 65 or older, 
  • people with chronic health conditions or compromised immune systems, 
  • pregnant individuals,  
  • residents in personal care homes, long-term care, and chronic care facilities, 
  • health care workers and other care providers in facilities and community settings
