Distribution Of A New Presentation Of Spikevax (elasomeran) Covid-19 Vaccine (0.10 Mg/ml In 2.5 Ml Multidose Vial) With English-only Vial And Carton Labels

Summary Moderna's SPIKEVAX COVID-19 vaccine in a new formulation (0.10 mg/mL in 2.5 mL multidose vials) is being recalled across Canada because the vial and carton labels are in English only. The vaccine was distributed to healthcare facilities that may serve French-speaking populations, where bilingual labeling is required. This is a labeling issue, not a safety concern with the vaccine itself.
