Immunization Navigator

Helping navigate Ontario's routine immunization catch-up schedule.

Built from Ontario MOH Publicly Funded Immunization Schedules, June 2022 + Catch-Up Guidance, Jan 2024
The clinical forecast results (the dose cards and their explanations) are provided in English only. Switching this page's language, or using your browser's automatic translation, translates the interface text but is not a clinically reviewed translation of the forecast — machine translation can be inaccurate for medical terms. When in doubt, confirm with a provider or interpreter.
Sources and methodology

This tool uses the Ontario Publicly Funded Immunization Schedules, June 2022, as its main framework. Later guidance is applied only as a targeted update to the vaccines, products, effective dates, or programs it changes.

  • Ontario Ministry of Health, Guidance for Routine and Catch-Up Immunization Services, version 5, January 23, 2024.

  • Ontario Ministry of Health pediatric and adult pneumococcal program guidance, 2025.
  • Ontario Ministry of Health, Respiratory Syncytial Virus Prevention Programs, 2025 to 2026 season.

  • Public Health Ontario, Hepatitis B Vaccines and Schedules: Frequently Asked Questions, August 2022.
  • Public Health Ontario immunization and vaccine-specific technical resources, where they clarify Ontario practice or support an implemented Ontario update.

Toronto-specific guidance

  • Toronto Public Health immunization guidance for health professionals and school immunization programs.
  • Toronto Public Health guidance on meningococcal vaccination, hepatitis B, RSV, vaccine supply, and local implementation.
  • Toronto recommendations are applied only when the output is clearly identified as Toronto-specific.

Supplementary national guidance

The Canadian Immunization Guide is used only where Ontario incorporates it, refers to it, or does not fully define a clinical detail such as dose validity or a minimum interval. It does not replace Ontario policy or determine Ontario public funding.

Clinical source review: July 2026. This tool supports clinical decision-making but does not replace individual assessment of medical conditions, pregnancy, immune status, occupation, travel, or exposure.
What this tool does: Enter a date of birth and vaccination history to see which routine Ontario vaccine doses may be due next. The forecast is based only on age and the doses entered. It does not consider medical conditions, occupation, travel, or other risk factors.

What this tool does not do: It does not assess eligibility for vaccines offered to people with specific medical conditions or other higher-risk factors. Only routine vaccines and schedules available to the general population are included.

For high-risk eligibility or recommendations outside Ontario's routine schedule, check with your local public health unit or healthcare provider.

This tool is meant to support clinical judgment, not replace it.
Vaccines given outside Canada: Results are only accurate if the doses entered are valid and equivalent to products used in Ontario. The tool cannot verify this on its own.

Under Ontario Ministry of Health guidance, Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) given on or after April 1, 2016 is assumed to be bivalent. It does not protect against poliovirus type 2 and should not be counted as a valid dose. OPV given before April 1, 2016 is assumed to be trivalent and may be counted.

Other vaccines given outside Canada, especially unfamiliar products, should be confirmed as equivalent to an Ontario vaccine before being entered.
