It lacks the ability to adequately track infectious disease outbreaks, efficiently manage vaccine supply chains and storage, quickly administer doses, and monitor immunity and adverse reactions on a national basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though all the shipments of vaccines arriving in Canada come with scannable barcodes, to make tracking and logistics easier\u2014with some manufacturers even barcoding the vials themselves\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/canada\/article-canada-falls-behind-on-barcode-technology-for-covid-19-vaccine\/\">no Canadian province can scan them<\/a>. In many provinces, pharmacies can\u2019t access the provincial vaccine registry. Provinces do not automatically submit reports on COVID-19 cases or vaccines into the federal system, and must submit reports manually. Many crucial reports are still submitted by fax: Where fax has recently been phased out, they have been replaced by emailed PDFs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Court-Painter-receiving-fax.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15716\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Court-Painter-receiving-fax.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Court-Painter-receiving-fax-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Court-Painter-receiving-fax-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ours is a dumb system of pen-and-paper and Excel spreadsheets, in a world quickly heading towards smart systems of big data analytics, machine learning and blockchain.
