I'll try to get this out.
A senior government official recently told the press that the federal government's plans to commence a mass vaccination campaign in April were thrown off when Health Canada approved the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines earlier than expected. According to that official, Canada's contracts with the two companies, which have not been made public, focused on large-scale shipments after April 1 because the federal government believed no large supplies would be available before then.
Can you confirm that the vaccine task force advised the government to structure supply agreements based on that assumption?
