The Government of Canada has accelerated approval for the Cepheid and Abbott diagnostic tests, following the issuance of an Interim Order by the Minister of Health on March 18 to expedite access to COVID-19-related medical devices. The COVID-19 Emergency Response Act (Bill C-13) also received royal assent on March 25. Among the sweeping number and scope of measures, the COVID-19 Emergency Response Act amends the Patent Act in order to allow the Government of Canada to issue compulsory licenses to respond to a “public health emergency that is a matter of national concern,” which could apply to diagnostic kits but also personal protective equipment, medical devices and therapeutic products.

With the outbreak expected to spread more widely across the continent over the next two weeks, there are increasing concerns over health care system capacities. Auxiliary health facilities such as the U.S. Navy Hospital Ship Comfort deployed to the port of New York City (which is the largest affected city globally with over 50,000 cases), and field hospitals have been set up in major urban centres, including New York City’s Central Park and in Toronto, Canada.

The pandemic continues to grow exponentially. As of March 25, It took only 6 days for the global case number to double from 200,000 to over 400,000 (and 2 days from 300,000 to 400,000).

At least 650,567 cases and 30,299 deaths have been reported in 199 countries as of March 28 at 2:30pm EST. Europe and the U.S. account for almost two thirds of all cases globally.  There is growing alarm, however, as case reports are increasing in many low- and middle-income countries.
