COVID-19 Vaccination Program

Consultation has concluded

Vaccine Hesitancy Research Results 

Vaccine Hesitancy EngageMB Survey Results

One million vaccinations have now been administered in Manitoba. This represents about two-thirds of eligible Manitobans who have received at least one dose of vaccine. That is a significant accomplishment and we thank the many Manitobans who have done their part and already rolled up their sleeve to take part in this historic immunization campaign.

The vaccine is one tool we can use to help reduce the risk of COVID-19. If we all get immunized, we can protect ourselves, protect our families and protect Manitoba.

A Million Thanks

It’s an incredible milestone in the fight against COVID-19: Manitoba has given 1 million doses of vaccine. We could not have done it without the support of our vaccine clinic staff, the Vaccine Implementation Task Force and the hundreds of thousands of Manitobans who rolled up their sleeves to help #ProtectMB

Tell us your #1MThanksMB story - Is there someone who helped encourage you to get vaccinated? An experience at the clinic you want to celebrate? Another reason to say "Thank you!" for vaccines and the Manitoba vaccination program? Share it here, and we'll share it with Manitobans.

Thank you for sharing your #1MThanksMB #ProtectMB story with us.

CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.

    All directions are very clear and folks are around every corner to show you where to go. It was much faster than anticipated, I'm glad I chose this location for my vaccine. Actual vaccine was fast and painless. Thank you!

  • Vaccine for MB

    by Marie87, almost 5 years ago
    I'm so grateful to the people in Leila Soccer Site. They gave us Moderna. Me, my cousin and grandma we're done with the first dose. The site was systematic and the process were great. We stayed for like 20-30 minutes including the wait after vaccine. It's really quick and the workers were very helpful in terms of procedures or where to go next.. I didn't feel anything, the one who vaccinated me tap me on shoulder telling me it's done.. Thank you for your wonderful service.. See you on the second dose 😊

  • Grateful and fully vaxxed!

    by JC1980, almost 5 years ago
    Yesterday I went to the Leila super site for my second dose after getting Astra Zeneca back in April at the local pharmacy. I was so impressed at how well this location set up, the positive energy from everyone on site and the efficiency. I hate needles but came in very excited to get shot number 2 and the lady that did mine was so fast and before I knew it she was done. Thank you to everyone involved, from those controlling the flow, to the cleaners sanitizing chairs as people leave to the medical professionals and vaccinators. You are... Continue reading

You are all amazing and I am eternally grateful for all that you do.

  • Fully Vaxx and Happy!

    by Lara S-G, almost 5 years ago

    Oh the happiness I am feeling today!

    I had my fair share of doubts when the COVID-19 vaccines was first rolled out. It's very new! It's foreign! I am going to admit, the unnecessary and misleading fearmongering contributed with the reasons why I was having second thoughts to get it. But scientists and doctors that are experts in this field knows best. And as time days goes by, I had friends who works in medical field had already taken their first jab and some have completed it. A good proof that we indeed need to be vaccinated not just to... Continue reading

A good proof that we indeed need to be vaccinated not just to only to protect ourselves but to protect our loved ones and as well our community. I am thankful how privilege we are to have access of these vaccines. Being or getting vaccinated may be a little contribution on our part but certainly makes a big difference to our community.

    And now, in accordance with CDC guidelines, I am happy to report that I am now π…π”π‹π‹π˜ π•π€π‚π‚πˆππ€π“π„πƒ!

  • Healthway Clinic staff is fab!

    by MBdesign, almost 5 years ago
    I was one of those AZ 40+ people who raced out to their local clinic. Healthway on Portage answered the phone on the first ring and booked me in 2 days after for April 21. Office manager was welcoming and chatty (I was the only one there) and the lovely gent who gave me the shot sat in the room with me for 15 minutes - more fun chatting, it was real family-style personal service!

  • We are 'ONE FAM' in a Million

    by MissusGee, almost 5 years ago


    Me and my family including my extended one were almost all inoculated with the first dose of Pfizer/Moderna vaccine. Almost because the remaining 4 out of a large family of 20 people are kids below 10 years old. Had these kids been eligible to get the vaccine they would have gotten it too.

    Getting vaccinated is not a decision that our family had to make. For all of us, it is a given. We all believe in the science of vaccination. If a vaccine is out there to protect our health and fight-off a virus - the next step for us to do is to get it. No questions ask nor second thoughts at all.

    This Covid-19 virus had really given our family a tremendous scare when it started. For one, we were so anxious then about the safety of our senior parents. Thus, when all the health restrictions were put in place by our public health officials – we make it a point that each and everyone of us tried our very best to follow the restrictions strictly for the sake of our senior parents.

    It has been very hard for all of us. Even though we are part of different households – we have all grown up in a culture of a very close-knit family. We are the type of families who love to frequently get together on every occasion there is. New years, Christmas, Birthdays, you name it we celebrate it with parties and more. And even without any special occasion at all we get together just for our kids to bond or just hanging out on weekends just to catch up and unwind. However, this Covid-19 pandemic took all these away from us.

    It’s not only that we are scared for our senior parents but also, we were worried for the safety of half of the member of our family. We have front liners and essential workers in our midst. As some would say they are in the line of fire. All these had made us really hoped and prayed hard for a vaccine that would combat this covid-19 virus the soonest time possible.

    Lo and behold - the Covid-19 vaccine came out. As soon as the first eligibility for the vaccine was announced - my sister, Carol, the front liner was one of the first batch of people who get inoculated with Moderna vaccine and the very first vaccinated person in our family. After her, were my sister-in-laws, Hazel and Model – one is a front liner and the other an essential worker. Next to them, that made us really thankful and glad was the inoculation of our senior parents, Terrie and Maria. Followed by my husband, Alvin, who’s an essential worker himself - together with my younger brother, Randy and my nephew, Leo. The very next after week after my husband’s vaccination was my turn to have mine. At that same time was my brother-in-law, Jason, who’s an essential worker too. A couple of weeks after that was my brother, Allan’s turn to get his. After that it was all the 12 and above young adult in our family – my nieces – Emmarie, Nicole, Kaila and Alliah and my nephew – Lanze. In a span of less than 2 months we all had our first dose vaccination from RBC Supersite.

    We are very thankful to the Manitoba government, public health officials and vaccine task force for making these all happen. Our whole family is now one by one getting our second doses. And we are so looking forward to the 4-3-2-1 Great Summer.

    We are so excited to be all fully vaccinated as a family. Not only for our family’s safety but also for our friends and the people around us - our community.

    For our family, it will mean very wonderful things ahead to look forward to. For one, we can then anticipate a Christmas celebration the same as what we had in 2019 and not the online celebration that we had in 2020 .

    Looking forward to these....

    Christmas Eve 2019 & New Year's Eve 2020

    And no more of this...

    Online Zoom - Christmas Eve 2020

    Our senior parents can get to see and hug their grandkids as much as they would like. Our kids being cousins would now be able to bond with one another again in person. And our family can all go back to being the traditionally close-knit family we all are and celebrate our togetherness again.

    It really pays to get vaccinated.

  • An Emotional Moment as I Thought of My Mom Who Died From COVID-19

    by jthomson, almost 5 years ago

    We lost our mom in December to COVID-19 and when I went for my first vaccination, she was very much on my mind. As they were getting ready to administer my shot all I could think of was that I wished the vaccine was ready just a little earlier and that she was able to be protected instead of succumbing to the virus a week before Christmas. It took everything in me not to break down and cry as they congratulated me on being vaccinated.

    I am grateful that we now do have a vaccine, and that it will save... Continue reading

It took everything in me not to break down and cry as they congratulated me on being vaccinated.

    I am grateful that we now do have a vaccine, and that it will save so many families the heartbreak that we went through losing our mom who was an independent, active woman who loved her children and grandchildren, gardening, cooking, and genuinely cared for those around her. We lost her far too soon.

    Please get vaccinated. For my mom.

    by LumbyT, almost 5 years ago
    On June 20th, my wife and I received our second shot. The first shot had been administered at our local pharmacy. When we arrived at around 8:40am there was a huge line up. Seeing the look in our eyes one of the workers stated the lineup moves quickly. Wow they were right. The whole process has an army of workers that worked so efficiently. From the moment we stepped through the door the sheer numbers of helpers operated like a well oiled machine and we left so impressed. If persons are wondering on whether they should go to one of...

From the moment we stepped through the door the sheer numbers of helpers operated like a well oiled machine and we left so impressed. If persons are wondering on whether they should go to one of the super sites I say do it. Do it for yourself,do it for the health of others and do not let the fear of long lineups scare you. So to all the workers you are amazing and myself and my wife thank you.
