* 65% of Canadians and 45% of Americans think that when an approved COVID-19 vaccine is available in their respective countries, it should be made available to certain groups before others (i.e. on a priority basis).
* If the COVID-19 vaccine is made available on a priority basis, Canadians and Americans think that institutional healthcare workers (doctors, nurses, aides, etc.) and seniors (aged 65+) should receive it first.
