Booster Doses

Individuals not at high risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes

As of June 2023, if you are not at high risk of severe COVID-19 illness, have not had a booster dose since September 1, 2022, and have not had a COVID-19 infection in the last six months, it is recommended that you get your next booster dose.

If you have had a confirmed COVID-19 infection, you should book your booster dose appointment when at least six months have passed since your confirmed COVID-19 infection.

If you are not at high risk of severe COVID-19 illness and have received a booster dose after September 1, 2022, recommendations for when to receive your next booster dose will be available closer to Fall 2023.

Individuals not at high risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes 

Ontario’s Chief Medical Officer of Health recommended in April 2023 that high-risk individuals receive their next COVID-19 booster dose this spring based on guidance from Health Canada and the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI).Individuals are recommended to book an appointment if it has been at least six months since their last dose or confirmed COVID-19 infection.

Current Public Health Measures

In March 2022 Toronto entered the Roadmap Exit Step of the Province of Ontario’s Roadmap to Reopen, with most temporary public health and workplace safety measures implemented to limit the spread of COVID-19 now lifted.

The following changes came into effect March 1, 2022:

• All indoor and outdoor capacity limits are now lifted, including for all businesses, public gatherings and events.
• Proof of vaccination requirements are lifted, with continuation of such requirements now being the decision of individual businesses (please respect each business' rules).
• Industry-specific public health measures are lifted, subject to conditions.

The city continues to follow local and provincial guidance to limit the spread of COVID-19. Proof of vaccination is no longer required to access city facilities and physical distancing is also no longer required.
