Canada: Friday Night Reflections – 18 December 2020 (English)

How are vaccines tested and approved for safety? When might we expect a vaccine to be available for the general public? What’s it like working on the front lines of healthcare during the pandemic? Host Malika Karim-Rajan joins Dr. Shainoor Ismail, Dr. Irfan Dhalla, and Dr. Tasleem Nimjee to tackle these questions and more, on COVID-19 and the promise of hope with the arrival of vaccines. This week, President Ameerally Kassim-Lakha also joins us to provide a retrospective of our Jamati response to the pandemic over the past year and pay tribute to the volunteers behind the scenes who have made it happen.
