During a news conference on Thursday, Health Minister Christian Dubé outlined how and when COVID-19 vaccines will be administered starting later this month for kids aged 12 to 17, calling the initiative “good news” in the fight against the pandemic. He added that the goal is to offer the first dose to teenagers by the end of June and hopefully give the booster before students return to class in the fall.
