Doses administered

This page provides information on the number of COVID-19 vaccine doses that have been administered in Canada by jurisdiction, dose number and vaccine product. The number of vaccine doses administered is not the same as the number of people vaccinated.

We update information on the number of COVID-19 doses administered across Canada at different times:

{Number of doses delivered}

total doses administered
since December 14, 2020

We update this number every weekday. Most provinces and territories do not update their numbers every day (see data sources). Information is subject to change and may differ from provincial and territorial reports (see limitations).

As most jurisdictions have reduced or stopped their regular update on doses administered on their website, we've removed the information on the number of doses administered the previous day.

Vaccination programs

  • COVID-19 vaccination began in Canada on December 14, 2020.
  • You’re currently eligible for COVID-19 vaccination if you’re 6 months of age or older and you don’t have contraindications to the vaccine.
  • The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) issues statements with recommendations on the use of COVID-19 vaccines. Briefly, NACI recommends:
    • a complete primary vaccine series to provide protection against COVID-19
    • booster doses after completing the primary series to restore or improve protection against COVID-19. Please refer to the COVID-19 vaccine chapter of the Canadian Immunization Guide for more details on:
      • booster eligibility
      • timing of a booster dose
      • recommended products
  • As part of the fall 2022 COVID-19 booster program, NACI recommends a COVID-19 vaccine booster 6 months after your last COVID-19 vaccine dose or SARS-CoV-2 infection.
    • A booster dose should be offered to people at increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19, no matter how many booster doses they’ve already had.
