Hu is the CEO of 19 to Zero, made up of doctors, nurses, economists and other professionals, who aim to help governments, companies and communities across Canada build trust in vaccines. “One thing that allowed us to have higher vaccine uptake rates in the 30 range was the vaccine orders, because I do not think there is any hesitation in this population (about the vaccines themselves),” says Hu. “In this age group, people are less worried about COVID causing serious illness. “Their commands let them live life again.” The story goes on under the ad Hassan’s partner, Humam Yahya, 28, acknowledges the benefits that vaccines provide in reducing serious illness, but disputes the need to continue receiving vaccines.

I fully understand that he has to do this because his health is a little more at risk.

He says that while the intake of souvenirs in young adults is very low, he does not believe that young people aged 18 to 29 with COVID-19 will flood hospitals.
