2025 COVID-19 vaccination program update

More details have been shared about the Government of Alberta’s 2025-26 COVID-19 immunization program. The COVID-19 vaccine will be made available in two phases:

• In Phase 1, the COVID-19 vaccine will be made available free of charge to eligible Albertans, including healthcare workers. Eligible populations can access the vaccine from the time this phase starts until the end of the season or as long as the vaccine is available.
• In Phase 2, individuals who are not considered to be at the highest risk of severe illness from COVID-19 may still be able to access the vaccine. An administrative fee of $100 will apply.

Full details on eligibility, including eligible underlying medical conditions and immunocompromising conditions, can be found online.
