New comprehensive research consortium will involve more than 150 researchers from coast to coast to coast
OTTAWA, ON, April 9, 2021 /CNW/ - Science and research play important roles in the continuing fight against COVID-19. The Government of Canada recognizes that when this research is carried out collaboratively by vast teams of experts, we can help protect the health and safety of Canadians today and better prepare for future pandemics.
Today, the Honourable François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry, and the Honourable Patty Hajdu, Minister of Health, launched five multidisciplinary infectious disease modelling networks, with a total investment of $10 million, to strengthen ties between the academic community, industry and the public sector. The results will significantly improve the coordination of infectious disease modelling to help Canada better respond to future public health threats.
The Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) urged local officials to strictly enforce the quarantine restrictions amid the rising cases of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the past days.
Local governments have to enhance their ordinances so the public will still observe health protocols to prevent the spread of COVID-19 as the country will soon mark the first year of restrictions due to the pandemic, the Department of the Interior and Local Government said on Sunday.
