Flu Shot (Saskatchewan)
Make the most of your health and wellness.
Saskatchewan update:
The Saskatchewan public flu campaign will begin on Tuesday October 15, 2024
Flu and COVID-19 vaccine appointments are now open for booking
Canada’s National Advisory Committee for Immunization (NACI) recommends that the influenza vaccine should be offered annually to anyone 6 months of age and older who does not have a contradiction to the vaccine.
To receive a free (public) flu vaccine at the pharmacy you must be:
5 years of age and older
If you do not have a valid Saskatchewan Health Card, please contact the pharmacy for help booking your appointment. Non-residents are eligible for free public flu vaccines.
The flu vaccine is usually given as 1 dose per flu season starting in October of each year. Children under 9 years of age who have never had a seasonal influenza vaccine need 2 doses. The second dose of vaccine is important to raise their level of protection and should be given 4 weeks after the first dose.
Appointments may be booked online through the London Drugs booking system, or calling or visiting the pharmacy if you need help booking your appointment.
**Walk-in requests may be accommodated subject to availability.
