TORONTO -- Canada has begun its largest mass vaccination program in history with COVID-19 inoculations getting underway across the provinces and territories.
The country has secured more than 400 million vaccine doses from multiple manufacturers, including Pfizer and Moderna. These are the only two COVID-19 vaccines currently approved in Canada.
As the country enters this new phase of the ongoing fight against COVID-19, CTVNews.ca is tracking the daily and cumulative vaccine doses administered in Canada, and across the provinces and territories, by surveying the data from public health units. The interactive map outlines the number of COVID-19 doses distributed as a percentage of the country's population.
Note: Vaccine distribution numbers are currently based on this federal government source, which was last updated on Jan. 22. Distribution numbers are currently accurate "as of January 21, 2021".

CTVNews.ca is tallying vaccination doses across the country based on statements from public health agencies. The map will be updated as agencies release their dosages.
The interactive chart breaks down the percentage of the population that has been vaccinated, the total number of first and second doses administered, as well as how many shots Canada has received from manufacturers.
The chart also outlines the number of inoculations in each province and territory, including first and second doses, in addition to the number of vaccines allotted to each province.
HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE ADMINISTERED SHOTS AROUND THE WORLD
CTVNews.ca is also tracking the number of COVID-19 doses administered for other countries, comparing where Canada lands. The interactive chart shows the total number of vaccines administered as a single dose in countries around the world. The chart does not measure the number of people vaccinated, which usually requires two doses.
