Health Canada has authorized Moderna vaccines that cover influenza, including an mRNA flu shot and a combined flu and COVID-19 vaccine. The approvals focus on a specific group: both products are authorized for Canadians aged 50 and older.
Outlets report the same core development but differ slightly in emphasis and timing. Global News highlights that availability at pharmacies is not yet clear, while City News Toronto frames the authorization as a package of Moderna mRNA options, naming both the standalone flu vaccine and the combined flu–COVID product. Winnipeg Free Press carries the same approval-focused message, without adding separate details in the provided summary.
