Vaccine 'ramp-up phase': 1.3M Moderna doses in March; more than 10M Pfizer by June

Between two shipments -- during the weeks of March 8 and March 22 -- the company will meet its first-quarter commitment of two million doses to Canada, Maj.-Gen. Dany Fortin said Thursday during a federal press conference.

Most of the vaccines administered so far in Canada have been the Pfizer-BioNTech shot, shipments of which the company delayed drastically in January and February. But officials now expect the company to make its four-million-dose commitment by the end of March, as part of the expected weekly shipments of 444,000 doses next month.

Federal officials also confirmed a virtual meeting between federal, provincial and territorial governments, as well as Indigenous leaders and other “key stakeholders” for March 9. Fortin said that he anticipates participants will “come together and compare notes” about the vaccine rollout so far.
