OT: Coronavirus Resources - and other things to not worry about

Total supply in Canada by month end (under-promised estimates):

April: 17m + unknown J&J delivery (enough supply for ~75% of those likely to get vaccinated to have 1 dose)
May: 25m (it'll open up to everyone around mid-May)
June: 42m (this is assuming that the final 3.5m AZ all come in June but it'll likely be split into May as well.. Also assuming that 2m AZ doses go unused)

TARGET: around 45m doses for every eligible non antivax dummy to receive 2 doses.

Assumes we will not receive any Novavax by June. Or extra J&J. Or any help from the US.

Roll up your sleeves. By mid May every single one of us will be able to book an appointment. June will be balls to the wall. Hire volunteers, open 24/7 clinics, do whatever you need to do. Supply will no longer be an issue even remotely. It will be all about getting as many people done as quickly as possible. Those July appointments that people are getting now for 2nd doses will need to be rescheduled to June. Ontario will need to be vaccinating at least 175,000 people per day to keep up.
 
Did we have several months to plan this? Absolutely. But I've shit on Dougie enough. He deserves a pat on the back when he does soemthing right, even if he did literally everything wrong up until today. He must have looked at my post discussing our current and expected upcoming supply of vaccines. I am not sure he was aware of the schedule up until today.
 
Thread on P.1 (and probably really really good news):



TLDR:
These data give important insight in the competition between variants and suggest that P.1 is not able to outcompete B.1.1.7.

P.1 might be deadlier but it looks like it is not as transmissive as B.1.1.7 which we know vaccines work GREAT on. Great news.
