The Nunavut government is working to get the Pfizer vaccine to Nunavut, Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Michael Patterson said at a news conference on Wednesday.
There is no timeline yet for when that will happen, but when it does it will be offered to youth aged 12 and up. Nunavut is considering a similar arrangement to the Northwest Territories, which swapped some of its Moderna vaccine doses for Pfizer with British Columbia.
