First 50,000 doses of Moderna COVID-19 vaccine being transferred to Ontario today whoopee do

[Twister]

Woopee doo, the goverment s doing a terrible job procuring vaccines fast enough. How is that other countries are getting millions of vaccines?


Israel is just nine days into its Covid-19 vaccination drive and already it has inoculated 5.7 per cent of its population –more than five times the 1.2 per cent reached in Britain.

More Israelis have now been vaccinated than have caught the virus and that includes more than 25 per cent of those aged 60 and above.

Such is the power of the world’s fastest vaccination drive, it is predicted that the proportion of over 60s among the critically ill will drop from 70 per cent to just 20 per cent by mid-January.

The chart below shows Israel’s performance relative to Britain and other countries. It is not just ahead of all others but the pace of its rollout is astonishing. It begs the question: how is it being done? And what might other countries learn from it?

“It’s really being treated like a war… and Israel is experienced in battles,” said Professor Allon Moses, Director of the Hadassah Medical Organisation's Department of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases.

“The hospitals are involved, the community clinics are involved, the army enlisted about 700 paramedics to help with the injections of the vaccine… It’s very similar to battle: you have an enemy, you have the right ammunition … and you just have to deliver”.

Most politicians are career politicians and imbeciles in the so called real world, this is why imo.

More power to Israel for being the guinea pig-county of mass inoculation. We will learn a lot about from a highly insular population - especially side effects. At least they will be the most prepared to respond to the vaccine damaged people; that is, because of their constant war experience and militarized population.

It is all academic now because new strain is out and vaccine 1.0 is approaching obsolescence. Any country rushing for version 1.0 of vaccine is foolhardy at best.

Procuring the vaccine is just part of the plan.

U.S. has procured 20M doses but only 2.5M have received the first dose. Procurement is useless without administering it.

Because nice guys always come last, and get stepped on. Canada is the 'nice guy' of the world.

Canada has administered about 77k doses. Given the population difference the U.S. is still doing 3x better than Canada.

I'd bet that when it is all said and done, Canada ends out ahead of the US, although Biden will provide a big "booster" to their situation.

Half a million vaccinations in 9(NINE) days! They did it the right way by utilizing whole healthcare delivery infrastructure and going after the most at risk to smother the mortality rates. We could do exactly the same thing; do we even have 500 000 doses, btw?

I take it you don't read very much. Just the headlines and you make up content based on your deep seated need to live in a world without hope. They had a trial with over 43,000 people so I wouldn't suggest that Israel was a guinea pig as these trials were done and studied by each country's own health researchers before approval. The virus has always been changing and different strains identified since it was first reported. According to the scientists, these changes will not stop the vaccine effectiveness.

You don't want the vaccine don't take it. I don't think disguising your paranoia with false facts is fair to others when their health is at risk.

Despite people trying to get vaccine Ford is failing to deliver

Star Editorial Board: Doug Ford likes to make big promises. On COVID vaccines he needs to deliver

‘Ford should spend less time talking about what Ontario can theoretically do and spend more on what it’s actually doing — and speeding that up.’

Canada should diversify connections with other countries, can't always rely on USA, when you need it they don't want to share. They wouldn't even give the schedule of vaccine shipments, cuz they want only to send the extra they have. That's not equal to sharing or helping your closest ally.

And when they (Canadian health experts) talk about Covid, why don't they comepare to big bro, they don't have those heavy restrictions and don't care of they have 50 or 100 thousands cases, they keep all the businesses working.

Still waiting for their comments on why USA cases dropping without any lockdowns.
