Interesting article. Trudeau is appointing former NATO commander Dany Fortin to lead Canada's vaccine distributon efforts.
-from the article:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and health authorities have said that the military will play a key role in getting the vaccines, when they are approved for use, to the country’s most vulnerable.
“Canada is well prepared for large-scale rollouts of vaccines, but this will be the biggest immunization in the history of the country,” he said outside his Rideau Cottage home. “We must reach everyone who wants a vaccine no matter where they live.”
It’s for this reason that he said the country was setting up a new body to stickhandle the complex task.
“We are standing up a National Operations Centre, through the Public Health Agency of Canada, with the support of the Canadian Armed Forces to coordinate logistics and distribution of vaccines,” Trudeau said.
Trudeau reaffirmed that the federal government and provinces will need to work seamlessly to guarantee the success of the National Operations Centre.
“In our meeting, the premiers spoke about the need to work in partnership with the federal government,” he said. “They also brought up the fact that in certain cases, they will need support to ensure that everyone is reached, including vulnerable people and Indigenous people.”
Premiers have said they need more answers around vaccine rollout,
noting they are responsible for the final logistics.
Hmmm, that means Horgan's health minister Adrian Dix would be responsible for final logistics of distributing the Covid vaccine to all B.C. residents.
