The following is from the Saskatchewan Health Authority
Originally published by SHA on Friday, May 28, 2021: Effective 8 a.m., Saturday, May 29, 2021, the Saskatchewan Health Authority has accelerated access to second doses of COVID-19 vaccine to anyone who is 70 years and older or who received their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine on or before March 15. Once an individual is eligible for immunization they remain eligible and can be immunized at any time. For all other residents, eligibility to book for second doses will be announced according to the age-based and priority sequencing of first doses, as detailed on the Government of Saskatchewan's Second Dose Strategy.
Residents will be required to know the date of their first immunization. That information was noted on the card presented at the first dose immunization, or if misplaced can be found by calling 1-833-SASKVAX (1-833-727-5829), or checking Immunization History on the resident's MySaskHealthRecord account.
The brand of the second dose must match the brand of the first dose. National reviews of the safety and efficacy of interchanging the second dose brand are ongoing and the provincial policy on maintaining the same brand for the second dose may be updated following this review.
