Updated COVID vaccines available in some Ottawa pharmacies (ottawacitizen.com)

New COVID-19 vaccines designed to target current variants are now available at many pharmacies in Ottawa.

...

Several Ottawa pharmacies contacted by the Ottawa Citizen said they were now administering COVID-19 vaccines, which they received earlier this week. At least one said they were still waiting for supply.

The updated vaccines were approved by Health Canada in September. In Ontario and some other provinces, previous versions of COVID vaccines, targeting older variants, were destroyed before the new ones would be made available. That meant no vaccines have been available in the province for weeks of a significant COVID wave.

...

A spokesperson for Ottawa Public Health said it was awaiting shipment of the COVID vaccines so it could begin administering in its clinics, but it expected to have more information next week.
