Government of Canada

  • Canada has now committed more than $1 billion to buy doses of COVID-19 vaccines from five different companies. Most of the money will get refunded if the vaccines do not get approved. None of the companies involved have completed all of the required clinical trials yet or been approved for use in Canada yet.
  • Teresa Tam states Canada is at a crossroads in the fight against COVID-19. There has been a significant demographic shift since June, instead of the virus disproportionately affecting elderly Canadians, most infections are now being reported in those 20 – 39.
