Organization: Canadian Paediatric Society (CPS)Published: 2019
"The Canadian Paediatric Society continues to encourage annual influenza vaccination for ALL children and youth 6 months of age and older. Recommendations from the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) for the 2019/2020 influenza season are not substantially changed from those of last season. Quadrivalent vaccine, if available, is recommended for children 6 months to 17 years of age. Either inactivated influenza vaccine or live attenuated influenza vaccine may be used for children and youth 2 to 17 years of age who are not immunocompromised. However, LAIV will not be available in Canada for the 2019/2020 season."- Canadian Paediatric Society
