Only people who are eligible will get their vaccine dose. You will not receive a vaccine if you are not yet eligible.
A parent/legal guardian must be present to provide verbal, informed consent for a minor. If the parent chooses an adult designate (e.g. grandparent, aunt) to accompany the child for a vaccine, a consent form signed by the parent/guardian must be presented.
Children at least 13 years of age up to and including 17 years of age, who are able to understand the benefits and possible reactions for each vaccine and the risks of not getting immunized, can legally consent to or refuse immunizations in Saskatchewan by providing mature minor informed consent to a healthcare provider.
