Canada is securing more COVID-19 vaccine doses for the next two years.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is tweeting that the country has an agreement with Moderna for 40-million more doses for 2022 and 2023.
It also includes the option to extend that deal into 2024, along with providing access to up to 65-million more shots.
The federal government previously secured a similar deal with Pfizer to provide booster doses for the next two years.
