With Omicron cases on the rise, the Government of Alberta just made a major announcement regarding COVID-19 booster shots for those over the age of 18.
If you’re among the many waiting for the green light to get their third dose of the Pfizer or Moderna mRNA vaccine, today is a big day because starting immediately, adults who have received their first two jabs (with the last one being at least 5 months ago) will be able to book another one at their local pharmacy.
