As Canada braces for delays in receiving more Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines for COVID-19, the country is currently falling behind countries like Italy and Romania when it comes to its vaccination rates.

But a member of cabinet and close confidante of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is hinting that 2 other vaccines might be approved in the near future, though it’s not yet understood if it will make up for the delay. Abigail Bimman reports.

As the world continues to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic and new variations have emerged, nations are trying to step up vaccinations as much as they can, as quick as they can.

More than six million in the United Kingdom have actually received their vaccine. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s federal government is intending to vaccinate around 15 million in the over 70 and high-risk group by mid-February.

Crystal Goomansingh has a look at the race to vaccinate versus COVID-19 worldwide.
