Variants and vaccine hesitancy among new COVID-19 concerns
About this episode
After a year of the COVID-19 pandemic, many Canadians are feeling the fatigue, but even as vaccines are rolling out, a third wave is setting in.
Variant strains have cropped up and appear to be affecting younger people, and it has now become a race between the variants and the vaccines.
National Post health reporter Sharon Kirkey walks us through why the variants have changed the face of the pandemic, why it’s crucial to get more vaccines to more Canadians, and what’s driving vaccine hesitancy in this country.
