New malaria vaccines

Has anyone encountered a person who received one of the new malaria vaccines? We were talking about this among the NB and NS teams and could not find any definition or code for Canada. Our current process is as a note on the file with attachment. We were wondering how other jurisdictions would document it. https://www.who.int/news-room/questions-and-answers/item/q-a-on-rts-s-malaria-vaccine TIA, Tom
