Canada Ordered 500k Smallpox Vaccines Just Weeks Ahead Of Monkeypox

Canada ordered 500,000 smallpox vaccinations just weeks before an
outbreak of monkeypox started in the country.
Weeks before of the first moneypox monkepox case was reported,
Public Services and Procurement Canada issued a tender for 500,000
smallpox vaccine doses…. which can also be used against monkeypox.
The move has lead many people to doubt the mainstream narrative
however, because in 1972 smallpox was declared to be eradicated in
Canada.
GreatGameIndia reports (https://bit.ly/3t4Yzok): 500,000 doses of
Imvamune, a “third generation” smallpox vaccine, were ordered “on
behalf of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC)” on April 21,
according to a report (https://bit.ly/3PTGWS6) from Public Services
and Procurement Canada, weeks before the first cases of monkeypox
were reported (https://bit.ly/3GEjNyY) to the World Health
Organization on May 13.
“Although smallpox disease is currently considered to be eradicated,
PHAC is procuring a stockpile of the vaccine to immunize Canadians
against smallpox disease should a risk ever arise where smallpox is
intentionally or unintentionally released,” the April 21 tender reads
(https://bit.ly/3PU9qeE).
The contract’s “Evaluation Criteria” state that “prior to contract
award, the vaccine must have Health Canada regulatory approval
for active immunization against smallpox, monkeypox and related
orthopoxvirus infection and disease in adults 18 years of age and
older determined to be at high risk for exposure.”
Despite Canada’s decision to stop routinely administering smallpox
vaccines in 1972 after the disease was declared “eradicated,” the
order for the shots arrives just in time for the sudden onset of
monkeypox, a disease from the same family that, according to the
April tender, can be treated with the same Imvamune vaccine.
Following the “confirmation” (https://bit.ly/3PRRNvT) of five cases
of monkeypox in Quebec last Friday, Canada’s public health chief,
Dr. Theresa Tam, said the country is considering utilizing smallpox
vaccine doses to limit the spread of the rare disease.
