  • Fully vaccinated : In Nova Scotia, you're considered fully vaccinated 14 days after you have any 2 doses of a COVID-19 vaccine or 2 doses of a combination of COVID-19 vaccines accepted by the Government of Canada, 1 dose of Janssen/Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine or a complete series of a COVID-19 vaccine authorized by the World Health Organization.
  • Anyone who has 1 or 2 doses of a COVID-19 vaccine that's not approved by Health Canada and the World Health Organization can book an appointment to get 2 doses of the Pfizer-BioNtech or Moderna vaccine to be considered fully vaccinated in Nova Scotia.
  • Optimal vaccine protection: People who have 2 doses of Pfizer-BioNtech, Moderna or AstraZeneca or 2 doses of a combination of Pfizer, Moderna or AstraZeneca are considered optimally protected.

  • Anyone who has 3 doses of any COVID-19 vaccine doesnā€™t need an additional vaccine dose for optimal protection. They canā€™t book an appointment for an additional dose of COVID-19 vaccine.
  • Additional (third) doses: Starting 15 October 2021, 1 additional dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer or Moderna) is available to:
