VACCINE UPDATE As of late August 2021, Canada has become a world leader in vaccination rates. After an initial lack of vaccine supply, Canada’s 70% rate of fully vaccinated individuals now exceeds early leaders such as Israel, the UK and the U.S. This is a remarkable turnaround. There is also minimal variation across the country as the most populous provinces

have all achieved vaccination levels of 60% or higher. 13 The four largest provinces— Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec—account for more than 85% of the country’s population. While momentum has slowed, Canada seems on track to achieve 80%+ vaccination rates within the next two quarters.
