TORONTO (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 17th December, 2020) Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday that he will not receive the coronavirus vaccine in order of priority.
"When there's a time for healthy people in their forties to get their vaccine - when it's our turn - I will be as close to the front of that line as I can get," Trudeau said in an interview with a Federal television morning show.
Trudeau also said he is "super enthusiastic" about being immunized against the novel coronavirus.
On Monday, vaccination against the novel coronavirus started in Canada with a personal support worker receiving the first shot. The federal government, acting on advice of the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI), has determined that vaccination will proceed on a priority basis, with the elderly and healthcare workers slated to receive the vaccine first.
