I don't think it has been used at all. The initial shipment that was received was apparently destroyed because there were quality control concerns with the facility where they were manufactured. By the time they could deliver replacements, we already had enough supply of the mRNAs so it was decided they weren't needed.
It is approved however, so it could be used without additional delays if a new shipment could be acquired.
According to what Kenney said yesterday, some people are using that as their newest excuse for not getting vaccinated, and claim they'd get the shot if they could get J&J. So BC, Alberta, and Saskatchewan have sent a request to the federal government for access to some J&J shots.
