Clinic Updates

Bowmanville Clinic Relocating
Effective November 23. See below for details.

Effective November 18, all Health Department H1N1 vaccination clinics will be open to the general population

In addition to receiving the H1N1 vaccine at Health Department community clinics, area residents may be able to access H1N1 vaccine through their health care provider or local walk-in clinic. Community clinics and local health care providers will offer both adjuvanted and unadjuvanted versions of the vaccine.

Individuals recommended to receive the adjuvanted version of the H1N1 vaccine include:

• children six-months to nine-years old;
• all persons over six-months old with chronic medical conditions; and
• all persons 65 and older.

All children six-months to under three-years old are to continue to receive two doses of adjuvanted vaccine at least 21 days apart, as are children six-months to nine-years old with weaker immune systems and chronic medical conditions. Healthy children between three and nine-years old require only one dose of adjuvanted vaccine.

Healthy people between 10 and 64-years old may receive either the adjuvanted or unadjuvanted version of the vaccine. It is recommended that pregnant women received an unadjuvanted version of the H1N1 vaccine, where available
