Alberta will administer its first doses of Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine next Wednesday, Dec. 16.
Health Minister Tyler Shandro announced the rollout plan Wednesday, which will begin with 3,900 doses of the vaccine for healthcare workers; including ICU doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists and long-term care staff.
“These staff are exhausted and they’ve put themselves at risk for 10 months,” Shandro said. “Alberta is ready to deliver this vaccine.”
The announcement came Wednesday afternoon, after Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine was officially approved for use in Canada on Wednesday morning.
