PROGRESS OF THE COVID-19 VACCINATION IN LAVAL
- Vaccines will become available gradually. Some people will be vaccinated before others.
- As more vaccines become available in Canada, vaccination will be expanded to include more people.
The proposed order of priority of groups for vaccination is preliminary. The order of priority is as follows:
| Vulnerable people and people with a significant loss of autonomy who live in residential and long-term care centres (CHSLDs) or in intermediate and family-type resources (RI‑RTFs). | Completed |
| Workers in the health and social services network who have contact with users. | In progress |
| Autonomous or semi-autonomous people who live in private seniors' homes (RPAs) or in certain closed residential facilities for older adults. | In progress |
| Isolated and remote communities. | N/A |
| People 85 years of age or older | In progress |
| People 80 years of age or older. | In progress |
| People 70 to 79 years of age | In progress |
| People 60 to 69 years of age | To come up |
| Adults under 60 years of age who have a chronic disease or health problem that increases the risk of complications of COVID‑19. | To come up |
| Adults under 60 years of age who do not have a chronic disease or health problem that increases the risk of complications, but who provide essential services and have contact with users. | To come up |
| The rest of the adult population | To come up |
Vaccination of children and pregnant women will be determined based on future studies on vaccine safety and efficacy in these people.
For more details on the criteria used to prioritize people to be vaccinated, consult the document Avis préliminaire sur les groupes prioritaires pour la vaccination contre la COVID‑19 au Québec [Preliminary guidance on priority groups for COVID‑19 vaccination in Québec; French only] on the website of the Institut national de santé publique du Québec. The order of priority may be revised based on various considerations, such as the number of vaccines available.
We invite our population to be patient. All information concerning vaccination will be communicated gradually depending on the arrival of vaccine doses and the groups that will be targeted (places, making appointments, targeted people, etc.).

Maintenance of sanitary measures
The start of vaccination will not mean the end of sanitary measures. Several months will be needed to protect a sufficiently large part of the population with the vaccine. Physical distancing of two meters, wearing a mask or face covering and washing hands are habits to be maintained until further notice.
