Ontario wants mixed vaccines internationally recognized after offering residents different doses, notes some European Union countries are using a similar mixed-dose approach

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Vials of both Pfizer-BioNTech and Oxford-AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines sit on a counter at the Junction Chemist Pharmacy in Toronto. Ontario has asked the federal government to ensure Canadians who received mixed COVID-19 vaccines will be recognized for international travel as border measures lift.

“As the federal government opens international travel, we believe these Ontarians should also be considered ‘fully immunized’ by other countries both at international borders and in their activities within those jurisdictions,” they said. Concerns have been raised in recent weeks about potential barriers facing people who mixed their COVID-19 shots.

Ottawa announced last week that fully vaccinated U.S. citizens and permanent residents will be allowed into Canada without a 14-day quarantine as of Aug. 9. Eligible travellers in other parts of the world will be permitted to enter without quarantine on Sept. 7. They also asked for a consistent approach to international travel across land, air and water borders and at all points of entry.Meanwhile, Ontario Premier Doug Ford repeated on Monday that he doesn’t believe in a vaccine certification system in Ontario

A group of experts advising the Ford government on the pandemic last week said a domestic proof-of-vaccination system would help speed up reopening and help prepare for a potential resurgence in cases – something Ontario’s top doctor has said will likely happen in the fall.

Normally, vaccines are vaccines similar to flu shots but in this world where countries use histories of other countries as verbal weapons for revenge to inflict harm, China will never except Western vaccines an have great influence on WHO.

I was just wondering if you are going to cover the fact that CDC is pulling the PCR test because too many false positives and it can’t tell difference between Covid or flu?

No question. I retired to travel before I get to old.

Seems fair since they are the ones who approved it...
