TORONTO Quality checks held up the delivery of thousands of soon-to-expire Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines in Ontario on Thursday, as pharmacists set to administer the doses expressed frustration over the delay.
A stockpile of 45,000 doses expires Monday, while 10,000 more expire at the end of June. The province said 12,000 doses were expected to pass quality checks on Friday and others were still under review.
A spokeswoman for the health minister said the checks were needed because storage data for some of the doses was incomplete. No dose will be sent that isn t deemed to be safe, said Alexandra Hilkene.
Ontario stopped giving out first doses of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine earlier this month after saying it was linked to an increased risk of a rare but serious blood clotting disorder.
