Canadians cheer as vaccination rates climb, but global health advocates ask: At what cost? - Toronto Star, May 31, 2021
Dr. Ananya Tina Banerjee, Assistant Professor at the Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Occupational Health is among the experts quoted by the Toronto Star.
"When Ananya Tina Banerjee, an epidemiologist at McGill University, got her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, she didn’t feel a sense of joy or relief shared by many. She felt guilty to have been offered a life-saving vaccine while so many vulnerable people around the world lack access. She has family in India — where just 11.5 per cent of the population has been vaccinated — and hears of a new relative contracting COVID-19 each week."
