Canada is now up to 5.5 million shots given. This is out of a total of 7.0M doses available. Over the past week, 1,380,949 doses have been delivered to provinces!

And so far 679k are fully vaccinated with two shots.

Canada's pace of vaccination:

Today's 169,650 doses today compares to an average of 178,230/day over the past week and 135,995/day the week prior.

- Pace req'd for 2 doses to 75% of Canadians by Sept 30, 2021: 280,115
- At current avg pace, we reach 75% by Jan 2022

Turning to just the share of people with 1 or more doses (a weaker threshold), at Canada's current pace we reach 25% by April, 50% by June, and 75% by August 2021.

For other context, at Canada's current pace of vaccination the share of people with 1 or more doses increases by 0.45% per day. The U.S. increases this share by 0.52% per day. For Canada to reach the current U.S. share would take 36 days.

This is really interesting to see too. With Canada basically at the US pace of vaccination, the question may eventually be: When does hesitancy start to bite? The US may start to plateau (regardless of supply of shots) before Canada does. That'd be interesting.

Turning to individual provinces, here's doses administered over time and the latest share of deliveries used. SK leading with 98.1% of delivered doses administered while NU has administered 54.9%.
