Moderna Inc. will supply 12 million doses of its COVID-19 shot adapted to target the Omicron variant of the coronavirus to Canada, the company said on Monday. The Canadian government had entered into a supply deal with the company last year for supply of its COVID vaccine for 2022 and 2023, with the contract allowing access to new vaccine adaptations.

Moderna Inc. will supply 12 million doses of its COVID-19 shot adapted to target the Omicron variant of the coronavirus to Canada, the company said on Monday.

The Canadian government had entered into a supply deal with the company last year for supply of its COVID vaccine for 2022 and 2023, with the contract allowing access to new vaccine adaptations. Moderna and Canada have agreed to convert six million doses of the company's COVID-19 vaccine, which targets the original virus, to an Omicron-containing bivalent vaccine.Canada will also purchase an additional 4.5 million doses of the Omicron-containing candidate, and is moving forward the scheduled delivery of 1.5 million doses of the bivalent vaccine candidate from 2023 to 2022.

While existing COVID-19 vaccines continue to provide protection against hospitalization and death, vaccine effectiveness has taken a hit as the virus has evolved. Moderna in June said trial data showed that when given as a fourth dose, the variant-adapted shot raised virus-neutralizing antibodies by eight-fold against Omicron.

They can keep them

Hey Moderna do us all a favor and destroy your poison.

Headache, runny nose, fever? Take a NyQuil

Perfect! That’s the vaccines I had.

is this a total waste of money given that variant has been superseded? JustinTrudeau cafreeland GovCanHealth who is profiting?

Omicron still around or is this a new fear campaign? Who's paying for this news?

Do you notice the word 'vaccine' is not in the headline? Because it's not a vaccine, as it does not provide immunity.

This one will definitely work 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Far more than half of Canadians have already contracted omicron. Thanks but no thanks. Dig deeper into the variant the vax is designed to fight. You might find the vax is designed to fend off an obsolete variant.

why another taxpayer gift to them by Trudeau?

The experiment continues,,,happy jabbing peoplekinds.

Which is normal cause JT has a contract with them until 2024
