Global News shows that questions seem to be growing about Canada's delayed Coronavirus COVID-19 vaccine deliveries, as concerns grow about more dangerous virus variants.
And as provinces implore the federal government to make its coronavirus vaccine contracts public, Procurement Minister Anita Anand has confirmed that the entirety of the deals are subject to confidentiality clauses.
However, Anand said she’s trying to push back on these clauses in conversations with the pharmaceutical companies.
Abigail Bimman has more about how the feds aren't offering too many answers, and how they're still working on more travel restrictions.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus.
Most people who fall sick with COVID-19 will certainly experience mild to moderate symptoms and recover without special treatment.
The virus that causes COVID-19 is mainly transmitted through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or exhales. These droplets are too heavy to hang in the air, and quickly fall on floors or surfaces.
You can be infected by breathing in the virus if you are within close proximity of someone who has COVID-19, or by touching a contaminated surface and then your eyes, nose or mouth.
Hopefully, the vaccine delays can be minimized. Less delays is better.
