  1. Hi,
  2. my name is Rosetta Wrestles.
  3. I am an office administration health services student
  4. at centennial College.
  5. I'm going to talk to you a bit about COVID-19 and the vaccine developed against it.
  6. Here I have the coronavirus.
  7. I should ask when do you think it's over
  8. or when do you think the pandemic is over?
  9. Will it be because of the vaccines
  10. or just generally how the virus has evolved
  11. Since late 2019 or early 2020 or basically the start of the pandemic.
  12. We can evidently see that we have come a long way.
  13. The times have changed and people are now very careful
  14. rightfully. So
  15. sometimes overly protective of themselves.
  16. Which is understandable
  17. considering how many lives COVID-19 has taken.
  18. As Canada's COVID-19 cases curved downward while vaccination rates rise.
  19. The end of the pandemic might seem near
  20. at least when it comes to the virus is worst outcomes.
  21. And the lockdowns that seem endless
  22. and the protocols or safety precautions that
  23. come with it that like wearing cute masks
  24. or
  25. really just wearing masks.
  26. When can we say it's over
  27. experts say
  28. that an equitable global access to vaccines
  29. is necessary among other safety precautions to resume
  30. normal life.
  31. Dr Ashleigh Tuite,
  32. an infectious disease epidemiologist based in Toronto
  33. said that the vaccines are a game changer for
  34. Canada and its path to creating more normalcy.
  35. See
  36. back to normal life,
  37. she said and I quote,
  38. I am confident that we are heading towards the end of the pandemic in a sense that
  39. it's not going to create or it's
  40. the virus will still be with us but it's not
  41. going to be causing the huge disruptions that it's causing.
  42. Now since we are
  43. vaccinating our population and we're building up that immunity.
  44. However,
  45. a small problem arises from vaccination.
  46. Many people do not believe that a vaccine can save them from COVID-19.
  47. While healthcare workers go day in and
  48. day out convincing the population to get vaccinated
  49. just to not be critically hit by the virus.
  50. People are still some people I should say remain unfazed
  51. and I'm convinced
  52. fortunately this is just a small percentage of the population.
  53. A much greater number of people believe that the vaccine
  54. will undoubtedly lesson if not completely eradicate the cases.
  55. We can still see our future barely noticeable with barely
  56. noticeable COVID-19 cases due to herd immunity or the fact the
  57. immunity we're getting from vaccines.
  58. It is important to note that we are not just
  59. here for ourselves but for the future generations as well.
  60. It is essential for us to consider our actions.
  61. Well now, now our actions now will eventually
  62. consider effect or
  63. that of the future.
  64. Sorry,
  65. we should always be on the lookout as to how we can improve the quality of life
  66. as this will affect the lives that will follow
  67. the kids.
  68. This I say as a fully vaccinated individual.
  69. Thank you for being here and listening.
  70. Bye
