24 million syringes and needles are ready to administer a vaccine when we have one. Said Justine Trudeau.
Update on personal protective equipment, vaccines, and therapeutics: Since last week, we’ve sent more than 2.9 million pairs of nitrile gloves to the provinces and territories. We’ve also sent out 4.6 million rapid tests over the past few months, and millions more are coming.
We’re also moving forward when it comes to vaccines. We’ve received more than 24 million syringes and needles, and we’ll use those to administer a vaccine when we have one. On that front, we heard promising news yesterday about yet another potential vaccine - this one from AstraZeneca and Oxford University. We already have an agreement for up to 20 million doses of it.
In terms of therapeutics, we’ve just signed an agreement for up to 26,000 doses of a therapeutic drug from Eli Lilly, and we have options for thousands more doses. This treatment was developed in partnership with Vancouver’s AbCellera Biologics. It’s part of our support for researchers here at home - and part of our plan to keep you safe. - Justine Trudeau
