Special vaccination event for children 4-7 

Marie-Eve Turpin

The CISSS de l'Outaouais is organizing a special vaccination event for children aged 4 to 7 years on Saturday, September 14, from 9 am to 5 pm, at the service point in Gatineau located at 75 de la Gappe Boulevard. 

This event aims to update vaccination records for booster shots that are part of the regular immunization schedule so that young children receive the protection they need for a healthy start to the new school year.

Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect children from multiple diseases and reduce the transmission of these diseases within the general population.

In order to welcome children and make their visit as pleasant as possible, the premises will be adapted to suit this young clientele. Fun activities and educational workshops are also planned throughout the day.

Parents wanting to get their child vaccinated at the September 14 event are asked to make an appointment via clicsanté.ca (select “Youth vaccination event”).

More information on childhood immunization is available on the Government of Quebec website.
