If there is sufficient vaccine supply, it is anticipated that the majority of Ontario residents who choose to receive the vaccine will be able to be fully vaccinated by the end of summer.

To support this, the province has developed an anticipated schedule for eligibility to book a second dose appointment based on confirmed supply.

The government is also continuing to expand access to the vaccine, with an additional 300 pharmacies across the province.  Eligible individuals can book their second dose appointment at participating pharmacies and some select primary care settings. Individuals may choose to return to the same place they received their first dose or book an appointment at a different site or channel. Second doses can be booked without a first appointment using the provincial booking system.
