Mpox vaccinations

Imvamune, the vaccine used for the prevention of mpox is approved as a TWO-DOSE series by Health Canada. The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) recommends a complete vaccine series of two doses for stronger and longer-lasting protection against mpox infection. The vaccine is not recommended or available (free or private pay) to the general public, including individuals who are travelling if they do not meet current vaccine eligibility criteria. 

People who received a first dose at least 28 days ago can now book an appointment for a second dose.
