The governments of Canada really need to hire a PR agency to manage the messaging around COVID19 & what to do because this interview with a NACI doctor was an absolute disaster.
The sooner we can get everyone in Canada vaccinated, the quicker we can get out of this nightmare but now people are going to think it’s ok to wait because this doctor said to get the mRNA ones. Most of Canada is in the midst of a hard 3rd wave and how is it possible for people to individually make an informed choice if doctors are saying different things, we rely on their advice because they are the experts in the field.
I’m glad I’m not the only one upset at this, it sows confusion and if anything will prolong the pain.
I have been doing some research and so far I have not seen Canada’s position on what to do for people who received AstraZeneca for Dose 1. Do you have any information on this that I might have missed?
At the moment, the levels of government are doing a wait and see approach, they want to see how mixing vaccines has turned out in the UK. They got some new AZ shots, if I had a choice I’d prefer to take a second AZ shot than mix & match however if the government rules that out, I certainly hope they ship it to a place like India to help vaccinate their population, it looks like a nightmare there. 🙁
