COVID-19 booster doses available for Albertans aged 12-17 starting next week
CTV News Edmonton
Updated March 8, 2022 7:08 p.m. EST
Published March 8, 2022 10:50 a.m. EST

The province announced Tuesday that Albertans between the ages of 12 and 17 will soon be able to get a third dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.

The announcement came on the second anniversary of Alberta announcing its first confirmed case of COVID-19 in the province.

Starting March 14, Albertans aged 12 to 17 who have received their second dose of vaccine at least five months ago will be able to get a booster shot.

Pediatric doses for kids between the ages of five and 11 are currently available at a walk-in basis at AHS clinics, according to Health Minister Jason Copping.

The province discovered 467 new COVID-19 cases over the last 24 hours, bringing the current active case total to 7,149. Due to restrictions on who can get a PCR test, the total number of cases is likely much higher.

According to Copping, there is currently no plan to expand PCR testing to the general public.

“We are focusing our efforts on high-risk individuals and high-risk locations, but given that we’re coming down the other side of Omicron and moving to an endemic phase, we don’t see the need to open up PCR testing for right now,” said Copping.

The health minister said that Alberta has seen a steady drop in COVID-19 hospitalizations since the beginning of February.

“New daily admissions have dropped almost every day for over a month since they peaked on Feb. 7,” said Copping.

There are currently 1,106 people in hospital with COVID-19 in Alberta, including 77 people in the ICU, with both figures approaching numbers found in mid-to-late January.

Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Alberta’s chief medical officer of health, also said that seven more people have died due to COVID-19.

The deaths were of individuals ranging in age from in their 60s to more than 80 years old and bring the total number of COVID-19 deaths since the statr of the pandemic up to 3,979...
