The province recently announced that on Thurs- day, July 28 parents and caregivers of children aged six months to five years will be able to book ap- pointments for the pediat- ric COVID-19 vaccine. Immunocompromised youth aged 12 to 17 will also become eligible to schedule their second booster (fifth dose) if at least six months have passed since their first booster (fourth dose). On July 14, Health Cana- da authorized the use of the Moderna Spikevax CO- VID-19 vaccine in children who are six months to five years of age. Appointments are avail- able through the COVID-19 vaccination portal and the Provincial Vaccine Con- tact Centre, directly through public health units using their own book- ing system, participating primary care providers and pediatricians, as well as at participating pharma- cies and Indigenous-led vaccination clinics. Meanwhile in Halton the local public health agency reported an in- crease in COVID-19 infec- tions, with 217 cases con- firmed between July 19 and July 21. This is more than dou- ble the 101 infections re- ported during the previous three days (July 16 to July 18). Due to changes in CO- VID-19 testing, these case counts may be lower than the actual numbers. Burlington had the most new cases with 86, followed by Oakville with 78, Milton with 39 and Halton Hills with 14. As of press time, no new COVID-19-related deaths had been reported in Hal- ton since July 17. There have been a total of 386 COVID-19-related deaths in Halton since the pandemic began. As of July 20, there were 32 people in Halton hospi- tals with COVID-19.
