The chilly air of fall is here, and with it comes the perfect time to think about your health! We know that staying healthy is important for everyone, especially as respiratory illnesses can be a concern during this season.
Starting October 7, 2025, residents of Saskatchewan can book their appointments for this year's respiratory illness vaccinations, including both the Influenza and COVID-19 vaccines. These vaccines are available at public health clinics, many local pharmacies, and selected doctor's offices.
As Health Minister Jeremy Cockrill reminds us, getting vaccinated is one of the best ways we can protect not just ourselves, but also our family, friends, and community. With high-risk groups in mind—like seniors, kids under five, pregnant women, and those with chronic health conditions—it's essential to get vaccinated early!
Good news! If you’re 65 and older, enhanced influenza vaccines are available to you at no cost. It’s a great opportunity to safeguard your health.
Children aged six months to five years can receive their vaccines at designated public health clinics or through their healthcare providers. And, you can easily book a walk-in appointment or schedule your vaccinations online at www.4flu.ca. You can also call 1-833-727-5829 for assistance.
Remember, getting immunized is a voluntary choice, but it’s a smart move to help protect yourself and those around you this fall. Let’s work together to keep our community healthy!
