Dr. John Nkengasong is calling on Canada, the U.S. and European countries to distribute their excess vaccines equitably to the countries that need it most. We would really like to see, also, planeloads of vaccines arrive in the continent of Africa. I think when Canada and other countries were procuring these vaccines, there was really no guarantee which of the vaccines would work. Otherwise, history will not judge us properly if we have all these vaccines and then Africa continues to be challenged with this pandemic. The prime minister has said an excess of vaccines will be distributed to countries that need the most.
