Guidance on the prioritization of key populations for COVID-19 immunization

Initial supplies of authorized COVID-19 vaccines are not expected to be sufficient to offer vaccination to all Canadians in whom they are authorized for use until the fall of 2021. Therefore, recommendations to prioritize key populations for early immunization are needed in order to meet the pandemic response goal as equitably, ethically and efficiently as possible.
