Algoma Public Health's now offering fourth doses of a COVID-19 vaccine for certain groups.
As the provincial government's expanded eligibility to those 60 and older, as well as First Nation, Métis, and Inuit individuals - and their non-Indigenous household members 18 and older - the local health unit says it will offer the second booster dose at an interval of five months or 140 days after the previous dose.
It will be using Moderna's Spikevax for the new dose if recipients are 30 or older, or the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, Comirnaty, for those under the age of 30.
