About this episode
Despite assurances that Canada would receive millions of COVID-19 vaccine doses in the first quarter of the year, shipment delays have put the country off target.
And every delayed shipment has the potential to further push back the goal of re-opening society, and risks more infections of the virus.
National post reporter Tristin Hopper joins Dave to discuss where Canada’s vaccine plan failed, when we could expect to get back on track, and what the health and economic consequences are of a delay.
