 COVID-19 vaccination in Canada


The COVID-19 vaccination programme in Canada is an ongoing, intergovernmental effort coordinated between the bodies responsible in the Government of Canada to acquire and distribute vaccines to individual Provincial and Territorial governments who in turn administer approved COVID-19 vaccines during the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada. Some provinces have asked local Municipal governments and hospital systems to aid in part, or in full with vaccination rollout. The vaccination effort in full is the largest such immunization effort in the nation's history. With Health Canada approving the Pfizer–BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on December 9, 2020, mass vaccination efforts began across the country on December 14, 2020. The agency later approved the mRNA-1273 vaccine developed by Moderna on December 23 2020.

Unvaccinated population: ~32,807,288 people (86.32%)

 Population who has one dose of the vaccine: 4,504,589 people (11.85%)

 Population who has received two doses of the vaccine: 696,128 people (1.83%)
