Sadly, 5 new deaths were reported to Alberta Health in the last 24 hours. My condolences go out to the loved ones and friends who are mourning lives lost, not just today, but since the pandemic began. (3/4)
The vast majority of ABs in ICU continue to be unvaccinated. By getting both COVID-19 doses, we can dramatically reduce the risk of infection and severe illness. This in turn reduces demand on our health care system. Book your vaccine today at https://t.co/NwxWObBwt1. (4/4)
