The United States will be sending 1.5 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine to Canada.
Reports indicate it’s part of a plan by the country to send roughly four million doses that it is not using to our country and Mexico in loan deals.
Canada had reached out to the United States earlier in the week for help procuring COVID-19 vaccines.
Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday that the request for assistance was under consideration, but nothing had been agreed upon.
Psaki maintained that priority number one for President Joe Biden is to get every American vaccinated first before helping other nations.
