Question:
Can I get a non-mRNA COVID-19 vaccine?
Answer:
The COVID-19 mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are the best choice because they provide the most effective protection against COVID-19.
Although the mRNA vaccines are recommended, you can request the Janssen or Novavax vaccine through the provincial system. If you want to get a non-mRNA vaccine, you can be added to a waitlist. Please register with the Get Vaccinated system and then call 1-833-838-2323 and tell the agent that you prefer to receive Janssen or Novavax.
