    Great news. Will make it much simpler next year. Will also make the flu vaccine significantly more effective.

      I went to my local pharmacy and asked for both, but the pharmacist would only give me the flu shot. He said I was too young to need the Covid shot… Which he gave me last year.

        Depends what province you are in. Different provinces have different recommendations. Here in Ontario they say for everyone over 6 months.

        http://www.ontario.ca/page/covid-19-vaccines

        “Starting on October 26, 2026 anyone 6 months of age and older who lives, works or goes to school in Ontario can get a free COVID-19 and flu vaccine.”

          Yes, I am in Ontario. Hmm, I should just go somewhere else to get the Covid shot. Thanks.
