WINNIPEG The first shipments of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine are on their way to First Nations in Manitoba. According to a joint statement from The Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC) and the Province of Manitoba, in collaboration with Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak (MKO), Keewatinohk Inniniw Minoayawin (KIM) and Southern Chiefs’ Organization (SCO) the first shipments of the shot went out Thursday morning. MKO Grand Chief Garrison Settee said the announcement brings much needed hope to Manitoba s First Nation communities that have been under insurmountable stress since the pandemic started. The majority of the First Nation communities don t have the infrastructure, and also the health systems are not adequate, to be able to address a pandemic, he said. This is not the end yet, we still need to remain vigilant, but certainly it brings a lot of optimism and hope to our First Nation communities.
