Eligibility for a COVID-19 vaccine has been expanded in Manitoba. Starting today, kids six months to four years old can receive a COVID-19 vaccine. To date, Manitoba has received 14-thousand 900 doses of the Moderna pediatric vaccine, while a second shipment of 28-thousand 800 has been delayed but is expected to arrive soon. Health Canada is also reviewing a Pfizer vaccine for children in this age group, and if approved, additional vaccine will be available in the fall.
