FIVE THINGS TO KNOW
 
1
  Side effects
Both Pfizer and Moderna say their vaccines can induce side effects similar to the symptoms of COVID-19 infection, including fatigue, chills, headaches, muscle aches and joint pain, but that the effects are temporary and no cause for concern.
 
2
  Case modelling
As health officials continue to project a grim winter of surging COVID-19 infections, CTVNews.ca analyzed the Public Health Agency of Canada's previous forecasts and found that they are mostly accurate, but sometimes lowball what actually happens.
 
3
  Masks on
While the leading vaccines developed by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna appear to be highly protective against COVID-19, it's still unclear how effective they will be at curbing the spread of the virus and, therefore, how long people will have to wear masks.
 
4
  Christmas plans
Despite a second wave of COVID-19 infections that threatens to climb to 20,000 daily cases across Canada, a new poll has found that about one-third of Canadians plan to visit friends and family for the holidays anyway.
 
5
  Allergic reaction
