TORONTO -- In a couple weeks, a potential COVID-19 vaccine developed in Quebec will become the first Canadian-made vaccine candidate to enter human trials.

Nathalie Landry, executive vice president of Scientific and Medical Affairs with Medicago, the biopharmaceutical company behind the vaccine, told CTV News that they “have completed preclinical development for this vaccine,” and are only “a few weeks away [from] initiating our first clinical trials in humans.”

“If we get approval in time, we will be enrolling subjects and beginning this study by mid-July,” she said. “That is a commercial facility that can produce a higher volume of doses,” Landry said. “So, production will go in both places.”She said that, in later trials, after the safety of the vaccine has been assured, they would want to have a “global study” of the vaccine in order to properly test how effective it is.

PM JustinTrudeau production of COVID10 vaccine MUST take place in Canada. We CANNOT trust Americans. The will steal the vaccine produced for American consumption leaving Canadians out in the cold. We have manufacturing capacity in Canada. Tap into it. This will also create jobs.

Are there any unpaid real non-bot accounts anymore on Twitter?

You can tell when the tweets come from American Bots. The level to which they dumb down their comments is geographical now. If you read it on the internet and it sounds like it was said by an idiot in 2020 more than likely that person is American

we don't want it

CTV employees go first

I don't trust new vaccines personally. I rather there be a treatment - which there is with Gilead.

Can mine make me glow in the dark so I can see the toilet at night?

I have concerns moving the production to the larger facility in North Carolina for mass development as it will be seized by US officials before it ever gets back to be used by Canadians. Please rethink production to a retrofit facility in Canada for mass production.

For God’s sake..the way Health Canada works, we’ll all be dead by the time we get it! Should have been on this months ago!😡

It had better not be a bio-metric type vaccine. If so then many will not take it. Many don't want to be tracked.
