Pallister announced last week his government had reached an agreement to purchase two million doses of a yet-to-be-approved vaccine from Calgary-based Providence Therapeutics.
He acknowledged the vaccine which has yet to be approved by Health Canada may not be available this year. We believe there will be a need for booster shots, Pallister said at a news conference Wednesday.
