Questions!

What's the deal with mall?

Hinshaw says it's too early to say if there was transmission at Chinook mall.

Province does publicly report outbreaks.

Public health could issue an alert as well.

#yeg #yyc #ableg #covid19ab
Malls can operate safely if everyone follows the rules (ya know, social distancing, wearing masks, etc)

Hinshaw adds that it's safer to try to visit during off hours or using curbside pickup.

#yeg #yyc #ableg #covid19ab
Hinshaw says they only calculate R-value once a week, so they don't have a new number today, but that it is still above one.

Questions!

Kenney says Alberta's plan is based on vaccine approvals, but that feds have assured AB that first doses could come by Jan 5 )Maybe some before, but no assurances)

#yeG #yyc #ableg #covid19ab
What about field hospital request?

Shandro says they're always planning for contingencies.

Says field hospitals are not in the current plans.

Officials did reach out to Red Cross, there is a tent near Lougheed hospital- but again, not part of current plan, just conversations
When will we return to normal?

Kenney says based on current planning and vaccines, he hopes we can return to some sort of normal by summer.

But says we still don't know for sure, will likely be health measures in place until most are vaccinated.
