If the COVID-19 vaccine rollout goes according to plan, British Columbians could be living in a “post pandemic world” by the summer.
During Thursday's COVID-19 press conference, Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said the recently approved AstraZeneca vaccine should start arriving in B.C. by next week, while the Johnson & Johnson vaccine could be approved by Health Canada soon.
And while she said public health has not yet revised their vaccine distribution timeline to account for this increasing supply, she's optimistic that even younger people in their 20s could have their first dose of a vaccine going into the summer months.
When the province's vaccination plan was first released in January, those in their 20s were not expected to receive their vaccine until August or September.
“Our goal absolutely, is to make sure that we – maybe I'm too optimistic – but we're going to be in our post-pandemic world by the summer if things continue to go the way that we want them to,” Dr. Henry said.
