Thank you, Madam Chair, and thank you to all the panellists for joining us today.
One of the essential issues for the need for a priority list seems to be the supply of vaccine. I'm wondering about two things. Could one of you explain to me how that supply process works?
I think, Dr. Spika, you called these novel viruses, so I presume vaccines need to be made up in response to a particular virus. I'm wondering what that process looks like, in very brief terms, and whether the pandemic plan has something in place to hurry that supply chain.
Also, there's the issue of jurisdiction and whether the federal government or provinces and territories are in control of that supply chain and getting hold of the vaccine.
Lastly, is there anything such as a geographic prioritization of where the vaccine goes? Do we prioritize places where the virus or flu may be arriving in the country?
