Over the last week, Canada has ramped up its COVID-19 vaccine rollout, administering more than 100,000 doses per day.

This is a great start but more needs to be done if the federal government wants to achieve its goal of having most Canadians vaccinated by September, Colin Furness, an infection control epidemiologist at the University of Toronto, said in an email to Global News.

“It’s not even remotely fast enough,” he said.

Canada has a population of about 37.7 million people, approximately 31.5 million of whom are over the age of 16 and eligible for COVID-19 vaccines.

As of Sunday evening, the country had administered 3,973,117 shots, after a daily record of 132,517 doses were injected that day.
