With more jabs going into arms and the potential of some Canadians choosing between the AstraZeneca-manufactured viral vector COVID-19 vaccine and an mRNA-based shot from companies like Pfizer or Moderna, the advice from the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) that seems to favour one or the other seems to fly in the face of the overall vaccination effort.\n\nOn this episode of This Is Why, we explore what happened with the NACI recommendations and why clear communication about vaccines is vital to fighting any disease.\n\nContact:\n\nAdam Toy - @Adam_Toy on Twitter\n\nDave McIvor - @d_mac1519 on Twitter\n\nThis is Why - @ThisIsWhy on Twitter\n\nEmail us - thisiswhy@globalnews.ca\n\nGuest:\n\nTimothy Caulfield, Canada Research Chair in Health Law and Policy
