According to reporting by the Calgary Herald, as of November 30th, 26 844, or 6.9%, of all children aged 5-11 in Alberta have gotten their first dose. 57 200 children have appointments booked for over the next four weeks, meaning that about 20% of children in this age group will have gotten one dose of COVID vaccine by the end of December.
