COVID-19: Quebec outlines vaccination plan for children aged 12 to 17 | FULL

Quebec unveiled the details of its plan to vaccinate children aged 12 to 17 as the province’s COVID-19 immunization rollout ramps up.

Health Minister Christian Dubé outlined how and when shots will be administered starting later this month, calling the initiative “good news” in the fight against the pandemic.

Children can start getting vaccinated as early as this Friday at Montreal’s two drive-thru vaccination sites at the city’s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve racetrack and the Trudeau International Airport.

The goal is to offer a first dose to teenagers by the end of June and hopefully give the booster before students return to class in the fall.

The province reported 662 new COVID-19 cases and eight more deaths on Thursday.
