Regulators should reach a decision about whether to approve Canada’s first COVID-19 vaccine for infants and preschoolers in coming weeks, as the United States prepares to roll out tot-sized shots.

The advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention unanimously decided that coronavirus vaccines should be made available to children as young as 6 months, offering protection from hospitalizations, deaths and possible long-term complications that are still not clearly understood.

U.S. regulators on Friday authorized the first COVID-19 shots for infants and preschoolers, paving the way for vaccinations to begin next week.

Will parents be eager to get their youngest vaccinated? By some estimates, three-quarters of all U.S. children have already been infected, and only about 30% of children aged 5 to 11 have gotten vaccinated since Pfizer’s shots opened to them last November.

Canada has yet to authorize a vaccine for its nearly two million children under five.

Borders Call on Trudeau to Drop ArriveCan App to Stop Pushing Tourists Away https://canadianriley.com/borders-call-on-trudeau-to-drop-arrivecan-app-to-stop-pushing-tourists-away/ https://canadianriley.com/borders-call-on-trudeau-to-drop-arrivecan-app-to-stop-pushing-tourists-away/?noamp=mobile#respond Sat, 18 Jun 2022 03:00:22 +0000 https://canadianriley.com/?p=648 Starting on June 20, domestic and outbound international travellers no longer have to show proof of vaccination against COVID-19 in order to enter Canada. However, inbound travellers will still need to enter their health information, quarantine plan and proof of vaccination through the ArriveCAN app.

The ArriveCAN app was introduced during the pandemic to allow travellers to report their trips and vaccination status and COVID-19-related health information before arriving in Canada.

The calls to drop the app come a day after the federal government announced that it is easing a number of restrictions introduced during the pandemic. It did not announce it was eliminating the ArriveCAN app.

A group of mayors and businesses in communities along the Canada-U.S. border is calling on the federal government to end the ArriveCAN app, saying it is discouraging Americans from visiting and shopping in Canada.

Canadian and American border cities, urged that keeping the ArriveCAN app will have a “long lasting” impact on the country’s tourism sector.

What’s happening right now is Americans are showing up in the minivan with their family at the border with no knowledge of the ArriveCAN app. There’s a lineup of cars behind them. They can’t get into the country.

Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Transport Minister Omar Alghabra gave no indication that the federal government is considering scrapping the ArriveCan app for travellers.

The arrive can app is increasingly unnecessary, and it’s hopelessly broken.

“People tried to contact the CBSA to fix the issue that CBSA told them that they didn’t offer support relating to reentering Canada.  The arrive can app is increasingly unnecessary, and it’s hopelessly broken.”

He said there were no metrics to justify these mandates and no metrics that can be met to lift them and well, infectious disease experts and now PHAC are both pointing to politics as the reason for federal mandates.  Conservatives are asking when will the Prime Minister and this government drop the politics and end the mandates.

“I understand how tired everyone is of the pandemic, of the different rules and restrictions that we have to go through but most people understand that this pandemic is not over,” Trudeau said,“Every step of the way, we will continue to be guided by the best science.”
