Note that some provinces report weekly, while others report same day or yesterday’s numbers. The doses of vaccine given do not match the number of people inoculated because some approved vaccines require two doses per person. Vaccines are currently not given to children under 12 and those with certain health problems. In some cases, the number of doses administered may appear to exceed the number of doses dispensed, as some provinces take additional doses per vial.
