Canadian health officials and ministers provided an update on the country's COVID-19 vaccine rollout and case count on Tuesday.

Hospitalizations and COVID-19 cases continue to decline across Canada, but the highly contagious Delta variant stands a chance of unravelling some of the progress Canada has made, health officials warned last week.

Modelling released last Friday offered an updated picture of the current COVID-19 pandemic, showing that the Delta variant could result in a “greater than previously expected resurgence this fall and winter.”

Moderna Inc. also said on Tuesday that its COVID-19 vaccine produced neutralizing antibodies against emerging variants, including the Delta variant first identified in India, in a lab study.
