The AstraZeneca vaccines in Canada are not part of the recent blood clot concerns.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is making that assurance after nearly a dozen countries suspended it’s use of that vaccine.
Trudeau has a simple message.
“The best vaccine for you to take is the very first one offered to you,” says Trudeau.
“That’s how we get through this as quickly as possible and as safely as possible.”
Trudeau adds that they have done their due diligence to make sure the vaccines are safe.
“Health Canada and our experts and scientists have spent an awful lot of time making sure that every vaccine approved in Canada is both safe and effective.”
The Prime Minister notes officials are following what has been happening with a specific batch used in Europe.
