Hey @SkGov, am I missing something, or does your new #covid19sk vaccination plans contradict the Canadian NACI recommendations and previous @saskhealth plans by deprioritizing immunizations for healthcare workers?? I'm worried about exposures to #COVID19 in these HCWs :(
I don't seem to be missing anything... @SkGov, why??? Exposures happen in frontline healthcare environments not currently classified as 'high-risk settings' and one COVID+ case can knock a cohort of healthcare workers into isolation. We don't have spare HCWs. Please reconsider.
Initially, I was confused. Now I'm getting angry as I hear from disheartened colleagues seeing #COVID19 patients daily in high-risk contexts. They are lumped in a risk category with others 'their age.' We need to take care of them as they take care of COVID patients for us.
.@PremierScottMoe, they can't stay home. They are exposed to COVID+ patients regularly - often before we even know they are positive. HCPs are lucky to have stable employment right now, but it puts them (and their famlies) at risk. At least plan to protect them!!

Many believe we are overreacting, #COVIDsk is just the flu, only the elderly/those with comorbidities die, we can protect the vulnerable, if you survive it you are fine, your activities can continue safely, and it will not end up being as bad as we are making it out to be. 1/10
The SK Health Minister suggested this week that we could still follow their 'optimistic' modeling scenario and may be able to relax restrictions over Christmas. None of this is true. The optimistic scenario is clearly not happening. 2/10
The realistic models (which have not been clearly presented to the public) show that we are tracking a scenario that leads to cancelled surgeries and overwhelmed emergency departments, wards, and ICUs. A scenario that leads to a lot of unnecessary death. 3/10
