Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
In the PM's press conference on Friday, he shared that he spoke with Albert Bourla, CEO of Pfizer, to further discuss vaccine shipments to Canada as well as the delays.
According to the PM, Bourla assured him that hundreds of thousands of doses would arrive the week of February 15, with more following.
"He also confirmed that we will receive all of our 4 million doses from Pfizer before March 31," Trudeau said.
He explained that the delay was due to the company working to "increase their production overall going forward."
Additionally, Canada can also expect half a million Moderna doses in February, too.
The PM went on to say that the country is working around the clock to ensure more vaccines for Canadians and that it's the only thing he can think about right now.
