Canada’s public health agency may have violated its own rules on the sale of licensed medical devices by selling ventilators costing $22,600 each for scrap metal last February, documents say.
The ventilators were sold despite Health Canada’s own directives forbidding the sale of licensed medical devices for scrap, according to documents obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter. The licences for the ventilators were not revoked until around a month after the agency began auctioning units off, the report notes.
