A group of three health researchers from Nova Scotia will take part in Canada’s COVID-19 Immunity Task Force Leadership Group.
The task force will be conducting serological research, trying to understand exposure, how to safely open up the economy, identify the most vulnerable populations and how to protect them.
They will also be researching ways to prepare for immunization, once it’s available. PM Justin Trudeau announced the establishment of the task force on April 23.
Dr. Gail Tomblin Murphy, vice-president of research and innovation for the Nova Scotia Health Authority (NSHA), said she was impressed by the federal investment.
