Appointments
Appointments are available for adults and youth age 12 and older. The minimum age to get a vaccine is based on the year you were born, per Chief Medical Officer of Health recommendations. You can get the vaccine if you will be turning 12 this calendar year.
Walk-in appointments
The COVID-19 vaccine clinic in Whitehorse accepts walk-ins.

Appointments for youth
Adult vaccinations are not available at these clinics. The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is available to children aged 12 through 17. You can get the vaccine if you were born in 2009 and will be turning 12 anytime in 2021.
We extended youth vaccine clinics in response to the current outbreak of COVID-19. The clinics will continue to offer 1st doses for youth on an ongoing basis.

Before your appointment
Review the information sheet and after-care sheet. Prepare any questions you have for clinic health-care providers.
What to bring to your vaccination appointment
If you have a health-care card, bring it with you to the clinic. If you live in Yukon but do not yet have a Yukon health-care card, you must bring valid photo ID, such as a passport or driver's licence, plus 1 of the following:
- valid Yukon student card;
- proof of employment in Yukon; or
- reasonable proof of Yukon residency (for example, a utility bill).
You should also bring a mask and your immunization record (yellow book) if you have it. Wear a loose-fitting or short-sleeved shirt so that your upper arm can be reached.
2nd dose appointments
If your appointment is for your 2nd dose, you should also bring your COVID-19 immunization record with you.
You can also download the CanImmunize app to keep track of this vaccine and others.
What COVID-19 safety measures will vaccine clinics have in place?
To prevent the spread of COVID-19 you must:
- wear a mask;
- clean or sanitize your hands;
- stay 2 metres (6 feet) away from other people; and
- stay home and rebook your appointment if you're sick or experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms.
Staff at the vaccine clinic will wear masks and clean their hands before and after each client.
