Ontario Expanding RSV Immunization to Protect More Seniors This Fall

August 27, 2025

Our government is ensuring the most vulnerable have access to the tools they need to protect themselves and their family during respiratory illness season.

Starting this fall, RSV immunization will now be available through Ontario’s publicly funded RSV immunization programs to all individuals aged 75 and older, building on last year’s expansion.

Routine and recommended immunizations help prevent the spread of serious diseases throughout communities, reduce medical visits and keep people out of the hospital.

Ontario’s RSV immunization programs for infants, high-risk children, high-risk adults over 60 and everyone aged 75 and older is part of our plan to protect Ontario by preventing severe illness, hospitalizations, and complications, especially among those most vulnerable to respiratory infections.

Through Your Health: A Plan for Connected and Convenient Care, our government is providing people with the tools they need to connect to the care they need to keep themselves and their loved ones safe and healthy.
