Canada set to receive 7.1 million COVID-19 vaccine doses this week

BY , Jul 19, 2021 4:37 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Canada's vaccine supply is on the verge of outstripping demand, with the official overseeing the national distribution saying more than two million doses are being held back because provinces have said they can't use them yet.

Brigadier-General Krista Brodie says in the coming weeks, Canada will surpass 66 million doses -- enough shots to vaccinate every

currently eligible Canadian.

The country will hit the more than 60 million dose milestone this week when about 7.1 million shots arrive from Pfizer-BioNTech and

Moderna.
