While Canadians raced to get vaccinated against COVID-19 early in the pandemic, only 15 per cent of the population had their updated shot this fall. But the virus is still spreading.

To be fair, it’s kind of challenging when you’re supposed to wait six months following your last COVID infection…

I thought it was 3 months for infection and 6 for last shot?

In Saskatchewan you should wait 6 months, but it needs to be at least 3 months.

I’m sure it varies across jurisdictions, but I copied and pasted it from the MB website.

That’s what they’re saying in my province, at any rate:

Beginning in the fall of 2023 for those previously vaccinated against COVID-19, individuals aged 6 months and older are recommended to receive one dose of the new XBB.1.5 formulation of COVID-19 vaccine if it has been at least 6 months from the previous COVID-19 vaccine dose or known SARS-CoV-2 infection (which ever is later).
