COVID-19 vaccines will cost most Albertans $100 a shot
August 22, 2025
Albertans who are not eligible for a free COVID-19 vaccine this fall will have to pay $100 to get a shot, the province announced Friday as it outlined another change to its highly scrutinized immunization program.
Alberta will be the only province in the country to make most of its residents pay out of pocket to get immunized against COVID-19 this October. Health care workers, immunocompromised individuals, seniors in care homes or receiving home care, and people on income support will continue to be covered by the province. The $100 administrative fee applies to all other Albertans.
