Vaccines alone won't be enough. We need a worldwide maximum suppression strategy, and international cooperation to fight spread in hotspots. #COVIDZeroNOW #VaccineEquityNow

Indoor mass vaccine clinics and pharmacies with poor ventilation are not safe to get #COVID19vaccines, especially for vulnerable or #immunocompromised! @francoislegault @cdube_sante à quand les vaccins dehors à air ouverte?
@DeNovo_Fatima 1 ère dose Moderna aujourd'hui en pharmacie 🙌 Maladie chronique moins de 60 ans. Pharmacienne hyper sympatique (pas de N95 !)
J'ai apporté mon capteur de CO 2 : 2980 PPM. J'avoue que ça m'a rendu triste. Je n' arrive pas à comprendre

A reminder from #Israel that we live in a connected world. This isn't a race between countries to "win" the fight. Instead, we only win by tackling this pandemic globally. Until everyone is safe from #COVID19, no-one is safe from #COVID19.

#CHSLD patients need their 2nd dose in a shorter delay! The totally unscientific, unsubstantiated 4 month delay is putting them at risk.
While we're at it, #immunocompromised people need a shorter delay, too.
