The general public can start booking appointments for the updated COVID-19 vaccine, and the annual flu shot at Toronto Public Health clinics starting Oct. 25. Both shots are available in one appointment starting Oct. 31. Toronto Public Health recommends residents get updated vaccines that target the XBB strain of Omicron as soon they are eligible because they are anticipating a “surge” of infections through the fall.
Public health officials say only one appointment is necessary at a city clinic for those who wish to get both shots at the same time. The public health agency recommends eligible residents get the updated Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna Spikevax vaccines that target the XBB strain of the Omicron variant. Starting Oct. 31, Torontonians will be able to get a COVID -19 and a flu vaccine in one appointment at Toronto Public Health vaccine clinics.
