Another country began to massively vaccinate citizens
Following Great Britain and the United States, Canadian authorities began vaccinating the most vulnerable populations against COVID-19.
In Canada, the COVID-19 vaccination campaign began on Monday, December 14. This was reported by Reuters.
It is noted that, first, the Canadian authorities intend to vaccinate frontline medical workers and residents of nursing homes. To do this, use the drug Pfizer-BioNTech, the first batch of which arrived in the country the day before.
For example, Anita Quidangen, a personal support worker at a nursing home in Toronto, received the first COVID-19 vaccine in Canada.

According to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, “this may just be the beginning of the end, but we still feel that this pandemic will come to an end.” At the same time, Trudeau himself also vaccinates when the opportunity arises.
“As soon as I have the opportunity, like all healthy adults, I will do it publicly and with enthusiasm,” the agency quotes the minister.
According to the latest data, 468.9 thousand cases of coronavirus were registered in Canada, of which 379.5 thousand ended in recovery and 13,553 – in death.
