The recommendation depends on age and health. Under current ATAGI advice, adults aged 75 and over are recommended a dose every 6 months. Adults aged 65 to 74 without severe immunocompromise are recommended a dose every 12 months. Adults aged 18 to 64 with severe immunocompromise are recommended a dose every 12 months and are eligible for one every 6 months based on their situation. COVID-19 vaccination is recommended for all adults, and for children with medical conditions that raise their risk. Your pharmacist or doctor can tell you what fits your circumstances, and the government has an eligibility checker.
