Health Canada approves Moderna flu and flu-COVID vaccines for seniors

Health Canada approved Moderna's mFLUSIVA influenza vaccine and its mCOFLU combined flu-COVID-19 shot for adults aged 50 and older on 5 November, marking the first time a country has authorized both products. According to CBC, the approval positions Canada as the pioneer in granting regulatory clearance for the two vaccines, and the news was reported on 6 November. The approval follows Moderna's submission of data on the safety and efficacy of the mRNA-based flu vaccine and the flu-COVID combination, which regulators reviewed before granting clearance.

There is not enough evidence to confirm that Health Canada authorized Moderna's combined flu-COVID-19 shot for adults aged 50 and older on November 6, 2026. There is also insufficient evidence to verify that Health Canada authorized Moderna's mRNA influenza vaccine for adults aged 50 and older on the same date. It is partially confirmed that Canada is the first country to approve both Moderna's mRNA influenza vaccine and its combined flu-COVID-19 shot for adults 50 and older. The claim that Moderna stated their authorized vaccines will not be available in pharmacies before the upcoming respiratory virus season is refuted.
