#COVID19AB Balanced Scorecard
Thu 23 Sep

Sorry for late start on this - was watching today's @PopAlberta broadcast for a third time. So many good shows there πŸ‘€

youtube.com/channel/UCXWbl… ImageImageImage
Last night between 4.16pm and 10.12pm, I assembled a monster Balanced Scorecard thread (rope?) of 31 tweets.

I wanted to give extra attention:
β€’ We're becoming 2 different Albertas with COVID-19
β€’ Non-ICU Wards have become ICU to prevent triage

πŸ‘€

Finished reading ALL of it?

I'm going to build on it a bit. Remember my analogy that covid-19 under bad government is like riding a canoe on a rollercoaster?

We have two canoes now.
β€’ Calgary and Edmonton, leading/front going down
β€’ Rest of Alberta, leading/front going up.
Example: Test Positivity

AB average going down, now 10.33%
β€’ dominated by Calgary Zone down to 6.95% and Edmonton Zone 8.35%
β€’ while rest of Alberta goes up
β€’ Central 16.3%, North 19.37%, 14.24% and rising

Despite the divergence:
β€’ which is both an outcome of divide-and-conquer strategy by our Premier
β€’ and also enables more
β€’ we still all share the same hospitals
β€’ and deaths outside Calgary & Edmonton are rising Image
We have an entire province glued to social media and news for the point ICU overload triggers triage.

IMHO (see last night's thread) we would have reached it on weekend if not for non-ICU Wards like Internal Medicine saying to ICU:give us as many of your patients as possible. Image
And @AHS_media media Dr Verna Yiu put it bluntly: we would have triggered triage already if not for people dying in roughly same quantity as new admissions.

Life-and-death "equilibrium". For now.

People are still arriving in exponential numbers.

Even though today was part of the "Chief Medical Officer Updates" many people have tuned her out.
β€’ sticking to her model and stories about the UK despite the actual evidence from Alberta
β€’ keeping June model secret until too late
β€’ "Endemic"

They are there for Dr Yiu. Image
We're supposed to be getting province-wide wastewater testing results published on Alberta Health stats page soon, right?

@ucalgaryCHI is still publishing. While R for Calgary is slowing...

Trend since 1 July: Number of infected people in Calgary shedding virus still rising. ImageImage
So between the two threads, we're just about through the whole scorecard.

You're ready for the pop quiz now, right?

Deaths & Vax left.

I'll do Vax another day. Want to give it a deeper dive.
Deaths. What we are all trying to avoid.*

New graph, just on this. I don't want to extrapolate the trend out further, and I have already increased the vertical axis more than I want.

Many wonderful people are knocking themselves out to stop this.*

* Notable exceptions. ImageImage
Love and care for each other.

These are tough days now, and ahead.

We're making history - in realtime - that people in all sorts of disciplines will study later.

Influence that for the better, however you can.

SNEAKY, Premier Smith. You restricted mandate of Judge Wyant's "third-party investigation" to eliminate over $500m of AHS purchases alone from MHCare Medical.

No rapid tests
No PPE (Vanch masks, BYD KN95, fast food masks).

No Education (BYD Kids masks)

alberta.ca/release.cfm?xI…Paragraph in press release limiting scope to just AHS, and just pharmaceuticals and chartered surgical facilities (CSFs).

@alanna_smithh @DuaneBratt @JenLeeCBC @kim_siever @ByMatthewBlack @TimmCTV @Lorian_H @BarryHunt008 @JMeddings @PfParks Premier, I know the "Proposed Audit Scope" I hastily drew up isn't very neat, yet, but I was planning to put it into nice PDF for Auditor General (with footnotes to my source material) very soon.

Why don't you work from that?

Premier @ABDanielleSmith maybe Health Min @AdrianaLaGrange hasn't told you yet, but former AHS CEO alleges:

"AHS bought ~$614m supplies + services from MHCare and other companies affiliated with Sam Mraiche, incl 2022/2023 contract for children’s ibuprofen/ acetaminophen." Image

Starting on πŸ¦‹ this time, with Charles Rusnell's excellent work on MHCare Medical & Sam Mraiche v @NatePike and @TheBreakdownAB, I did some analysis on several kinds of journalism in this story:
β€’ 2 mainstream
β€’ 1 independent
β€’ 1 new media
β€’ 1 blogger

thetyee.ca/News/2025/03/0…
@NatePike @TheBreakdownAB Here's my analysis ~ 1.30am,

on a story Charles posted at 11.30pm,

which included same-day analysis, by same veteran defamation lawyer as before.

If this is a micro-blogging platform, then I guess I"m the sleepy blogger.

P.S. Thanks @Lorian_H too.

skyview.social/?url=https%3A%…
I wondered why Charles had been quiet on this story all day.
β€’ he takes THOROUGH hand notes
β€’ doesn't try to simultaneously live-tweet
β€’Β not even 3 tweet summary afterwards.

Now I see why. Answering questions on that would have distracted him from this🎁.

🧡Earlier this morning, I received attached chat messages from @KatyET #ABResistance, on BlueSky where I had not thought to block her, claiming they are acting "with the absolute knowledge and complete support of Nate".

I don't believe this is true - not to the extent stated. Start of chat at 5.43 am
first two messages received by 5.49am

@Katyet @alanna_smithh @ByMatthewBlack @DuaneBratt @reportrix @gthomsonink @TimmCTV As someone unaware of the chat replied to my thread yesterday, in Nate's goodbye video on Sun 16 Feb, he said he would follow the rules of society, and not be like the people he criticizes (eg. TBA)

He would not circumvent the court order to criticize Mraiche through others. Unrelated reply to me this morning.
@Katyet @alanna_smithh @ByMatthewBlack @DuaneBratt @reportrix @gthomsonink @TimmCTV Maybe Nate had emotional response to video made with audio clip from his show, and maybe the best rock song warmup ever.

That is NOT an endorsement of #MraicheMob, "ratfucker", tagging police, "Corruption Partnered with Mraiche", and the "rally" now in revisionism.

Very ugly things happening around MHCare Medical v Nate Pike lawsuit, especially approaching hearing Friday afternoon.

Many in #abpoli know ‡️

I feel terrible for my friend Nate:
β€’ Big "allies" like DKGray/ABResistance treating Mraiche like KJJ treated Mohamad Fakih, IMO 4 screenshots of twitter thread better left undescribed
4 screenshots of twitter thread better left undescribed
4 screenshots of twitter thread better left undescribed
4 screenshots of twitter thread better left undescribed
Like Mr Mraiche and Mr Fakih, I am Canadian and Muslim and born overseas. (Kenya, not Lebanon).

I can be those immutable things + CFL fanatic + engineer + father + advocate for ethical government and safe PPE/meds + free press + many other things simultaneously without conflict.
I don't know much about Mr Fakih or Paramount Fine Foods. Unfortunately, mainly through the terrible defamation and harassment he _truly_ suffered.

From KJJ and the mob he incited. Unlike Nate, and the self-appointed mob getting him in serious trouble.

Here's the Procedure Card I obtained this afternoon from Calgary Courts Centre for MHCare Medical v Nate Pike.

I understand from court clerks there is no publication ban and no sealed document.

Not tagging anyone on this because it might blow up your notifications. Bracing myse Image
I understand people want to demonstrate Friday to support Nate.

IMO, TERRIBLE idea. People may put up defamatory signs, and convoy or Coutts people who hate Nate could make things uglier. That will work AGAINST Nate.

The Justice will decide from what's IN Court, not OUTSIDE.
Procedure Card confirms report (CTV Calgary?) that Nate would file for appeal.

Not a lawyer, but IMO, STUPID WASTEFUL IDEA!

🧡 MHCare Medical ISO 13485:2016 Certification

I had always found it odd that the firm that supplied the notorious Vanch masks 😱 to GoA would claim certification under:

ISO 13485:2016
Medical Devices - Quality Management Systems

mhcaremedical.com/who-we-serveScreenshot of "Who we serve" page showing a HCW in a blue flat mask and MHCare Medical's claim "We deliver quality products, competitive pricing..."
screenshot of home page showing ISO 13485:2016 logo from "ORI".
@kim_siever @BarryHunt008 @alanna_smithh @ByMatthewBlack @PfParks @JMeddings @DanielleLarivee @gilmcgowan @reportrix @DuaneBratt But until last week, when they succeeded at muzzling my friend Nate Pike @TheBreakdownAB (I can't even tag them on this!) as part of their $6m suspected SLAPP, I hadn't looked into it the way I sometimes do.

Turns out they are!
🀯

iafcertsearch.org/certification/…
@kim_siever @BarryHunt008 @alanna_smithh @ByMatthewBlack @PfParks @JMeddings @DanielleLarivee @gilmcgowan @reportrix @DuaneBratt @TheBreakdownAB It appears Orion Registrar Inc certified or re-certified MHCare Medical on 25 Nov 2024 for "Distribution of Medical Devices Class I, II, III, IV".

Yes, all 4 Classes of Medical Device.

Here's some background on ISO 13485:
