Here is a summary of today’s #COVID19AB update. It is important that we support anyone w/COVID-19 & avoid stigmatizing others in our communities. COVID-19 is not restricted to region, race or religion. It does not play favourites & we need to support anyone who gets sick. (1/8)

Over the last 24hrs, we identified 1,854 new cases & completed 19.6K+ tests. Our prov positivity rate sits at about 9.5% & we have 17,743 active cases. There are 511 people in hospital, incl 97 in ICU. These numbers are concerning and I know AHS is watching closely. (2/8)

There were 14 deaths related to COVID-19 reported to us in the past 24 hrs. I know the pain & sadness their death causes for family & friends left behind. They are not just a statistic, they represent ABs who were loved & who meant the world to those closest to them. (3/8)

There are 453 people in hospital, of those, 96 are in the ICU. Sadly, there were 8 deaths related to COVID-19 reported to us in the past 24 hrs. My thoughts are with the family and friends of those individuals as they mourn the passing of their loved one. (2/9)

There are alerts/outbreaks in 376 schools (203 w/outbreaks incl 88 on watch) w/1,405 active cases. With grades 7-12 students at home, we can expect a reduction in cases & outbreaks attributed to schools in the coming days. They will still be reflected in active cases. (3/9)
