Rick Bell "quite bluntly, w the messaging you've had only months, Dr, what is your reaction … to the anger from Albertans over the past couple of days … and just found out Naheed Nenshi has two people in his office who travelled over the holidays"

Min Shandro "w the accountability that occurred this week. It's going to take time … that that humility, that credibility, will earn back the trust of Albertans. Dr Hinshaw?"

Dr Hinshaw "we're all tired. I've asked people to be compassionate w each other. I can absolutely understand that anger. All Albertans are really sick & tired of COVID. I'd just ask that Albertans take a deep breath. … Take a look at the guidelines as a roadmap to get us thru"

Min Shandro "We're all frustrated. All of us have been making sacrifices. The sacrifice my kid(s?) made to not see their grandparent(s?)"

reporter 'Kevin' "when do plan to announce restrictions will be extended?"
Min Shandro "some of the holiday testing has to be looked at in a particular way bec people took a break from getting tested."

#ABpoli #COVID19AB Health presser

Min Shandro talking about "number of doses coming from Pfizer & Moderna is out of our hands"

Shandro let Dr Hinshaw answer number of doses in the shipment.

Dr Hinshaw says they expect about 13,000 doses of Pfizer this week

*over months, not 'only'
(typo in first tweet of this thread)

Min Shandro is asked about line jumping by reporter 'Dillon.' "Those who are most vulnerable who are getting the vaccination"

Shandro blaming feds AGAIN, by saying it depends on if the federal government will get the vaccines to them. There's no reason to question this. 😡

by suggesting there might be delays in the next shipment from the feds, Shandro is implying it WILL happen & that it's the feds' fault for any slowness in inoculations

and that's a wrap
