Ktunaxa Nation Regional Health Centre Hosting Immunization Clinics


It’s October, and that means flu and COVID-19 vaccines are arriving soon!

We will be offering:

  • 2025–26 Influenza (flu) vaccine

  • New COVID-19 vaccine (LP 8.1)

  • Pneumonia vaccine – for adults 65+ or those with certain medical conditions

👉 These vaccines are separate again this year, and it’s safe to receive one or both at the same time.
👉 Ask about routine vaccines such as Tetanus and MMR (measles/mumps/rubella), which will also be available on select days.
