Minister of Public Services and Procurement Anita Anand said on Friday that Canada’s supply of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine has been hit by a temporary delay due to the company scaling up its European manufacturing capacity – a move that will impact the vaccine’s production and Canada’s deliveries for a “short period.” Anand said, however, that this won’t impact Canada’s long-term vaccination timeline.
