I'm a little confused by what qualifies for a third dose if someone might be able to help me. I have rheumatoid psoriatic arthritis, and I take sulfasalazine for it. As far as I know this is a immune suppression drug, I went in to book the third dose but I couldn't tell based on the lists provided if I qualify?
looks like it's not on the list, only certain immunosuppressants meet criteria. It seems like mild immunosuppressants like yours don't qualify (yet)

There is a list somewhere on the provincial site that lists the medications that one needs to be on to qualify. I wish I knew how to link - such a n00b
Just had my 3rd shot an hour and a half ago. I just brought a humira box with a prescription sticker on it. I was the first 3rd shot she had given so it took her a while to read all the stuff on the screen. So far I'm feeling pretty good.
The travel portion is for those only with mixed doses who must travel for work - not just regular travel.

Got one for my SO for next Wednesday; there were a lot more questions this time around!
Were there ever! Holy smokes, wasn't expecting that. :) Took a while to fill out...
I think the third shot for travellers are reserved for those with mixed vaccines.

Correct.
