Manitobans are reminded to fill out a second consent form for their second-dose appointment. This will ensure any changes in your health status can be reviewed before your second dose. Providers will have the most up-to-date information in case you are getting a different vaccine and can review any updates on allergic reactions to vaccines. To fill out and print the consent forms before your appointment, visit manitoba.ca.

Eligibility 

Eligibility for second doses has been expanded to include individuals who received their first dose on or before May 1. Manitobans are strongly reminded that only those eligible to book appointments based on the date of their first dose or other provincial criteria should book second-dose appointments at this time.

Additionally, all Indigenous people in Manitoba and individuals with specific health conditions are also eligible to book their second dose, as long as they meet the minimum time interval between doses. For more information, visit manitoba.ca.

All people aged 12 and up are eligible to book their first-dose appointments.

Individuals can book online at protectmb.ca or by calling (toll-free) 1-844-MAN-VACC (1-844-626-8222). People will need to know the date they received their first dose and the type of vaccine received. This information can continue to be accessed at sharedhealthmb.ca or by calling a local public health office. A directory can be found at gov.mb.ca. Note that vaccine appointments cannot be booked through public health offices.

Vaccine Administration 

A total of 946,611 vaccinations have been administered in Manitoba.

Appointments 

Eligible people can book appointments at super sites in Gimli, Dauphin, Steinbach, Winnipeg (RBC Convention Centre, Leila), Brandon, Thompson, Selkirk, Morden and The Pas. Pop-up clinics have been scheduled throughout the province in June. Indigenous people can also attend an urban Indigenous clinic led by community organizations in Winnipeg, Brandon, Thompson and Portage la Prairie.

A complete listing and searchable map is available online at protectmb.ca. Eligible individuals can book their appointments at these sites online or by calling (toll-free) 1-844-626-8222 (1-844-MAN-VACC).

Clients of the Community Living disABILITY Services (CLDS) program and Children’s disABILITY Services (CDS) programs who have not been able to be vaccinated in one of the existing clinics and may require additional accommodations around vaccination should contact their community service worker to discuss other options.

Appointments at the Leila super site in Winnipeg have been dedicated for CLDS and CDS participants today and June 9.

Vaccine Supply and Distribution

To date, 1,041,040 doses of vaccine have been delivered to Manitoba. This includes:

  • 741,780 doses of Pfizer vaccine;
  • 215,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine; and
  • 84,260 doses of the AstraZeneca/Covishield vaccine.

Manitoba is expecting delivery of 87,750 doses of Pfizer vaccine this week.

Additional Information 

When attending a vaccine appointment, people are reminded to bring their completed consent form (available online at protectmb.ca), wear a short-sleeved shirt, wear a mask, and bring their health card or other form of identification. To help support good physical distancing on site, people should arrive no more than 15 minutes before their scheduled appointment time.

Young people aged 12 to 15 can attend their appointment with a parent, guardian or caregiver, or bring a signed consent form at the time of their appointment. If the youth attends without a guardian and without a signed consent form, they will go through an informed consent process to assess their ability to consent on their own and proceed with the vaccine. Young people aged 16 and 17 can sign their own consent form.

More information about the vaccine campaign in Manitoba is available at manitoba.ca and protectmb.ca. For regular updates, visit protectmb.ca and sign up for the weekly e-newsletter.
