The interesting part of the spin (by Canadian medical authorities) put on the situation with our American friends coming up and getting essential heath products (they can't seem to get in their own country) and the perception of them displacing Canadians in lineups is that the products Americans are being sold are not from the same inventory as the products allocated to Canadian Medical Services.
They have always assured the public that Canadians having to wait longer than Americans had nothing to do with any shortage of supply, and if anything, the PR this issue has gotten has scared more people into getting vaccinated.
Apparently, in Canada we have already used up as much vaccine as we did in all of last year.
I was wondering when they were going to start reconciling the 'split inventory' story.
