I’m sure you’ll see that change as J&J ramps up.
The supply chain around Pfizer is very difficult. Export beyond Canada in volume sounds like a tough proposition (it requires a dry ice cold chain). But.. two dose requirements don’t work for hesitant populations, which is where the US is now.
I would guess that US demand for Pfizer will drop and exports of Pfizer to Canada will happen as J&J is deployed more. (At least until kids can get Pfizer)
