AB has highest measles cases in 40 yrs. Each of those cases will infect another 12-18 people.
On its way now... a new Covid variant that has Asian countries on their knees.
But sure. Make masks illegal and kill thousands.

Smith has become a one-note loop tape. O&G, O&G, O&G, energy, energy, energy. Does she ever talk about anything else anymore? Does she realize she is a PUBLIC servant? For all Albertans? (The people, I mean). I guess not.

Deaths.Of ABs.In Canada.Preventable deaths. Of the most vulnerable (kids,pregnant,seniors)&the most dedicated (HCW incl docs,nurses,LPNs,unit clerks,food svc, laundry). Anyone in HC. Smith&LaGrange are OK with that. I'm not. @mark-carney.bsky.social @naheednenshi.bsky.social @shoffmanab.bsky.social

She will try to blame "AHS" but:
- it doesn't call the shots anymore, and is a fragment of what it used to be
- PH is completely controlled by AH (= govt) and has been muzzled and decimated
- all of her personally handpicked people (who she hasn't fired) are running the show

Someone needs to remind the Premier that she's running the province and ALL of this HC money being wasted is on her watch and because of her decisions.
The worsening HC outcomes and access metrics are because of her policy.
Her handpicked people are running the show!

ABs should be very aware: The Premier actively and directly created this problem… and there’s no end in sight. She continues to ignore expert input, and things will only get worse. HC Access will degrade further, and ABs will pay more for worse care.

11- Not covering HCWs and seniors in independent living will have HUGE impacts on staffing absenteeism and hosp admissions - the costs here for overtime and hosp admissions will overwhelm any savings from charging for the vaccine in these groups!

9- set conditions for severe influenza season w inc Hosp admissions, and now the worse Measles outbreak in over HALF A CENTURY
10- PH currently run by non-expert bureaucrats - to the point where I can't find a single PH expert who advised on govt's new COVID vaccine policy

7- Dismantled active vaccine education and campaigns, and pushed disseminated distribution of vaccines out into pharmacies (so disrupted coordinated vaccine delivery programs in AB)
8- set stage for lowest vaccine uptake numbers: not just Covid but Influenza, Measles...

4- Moved PH into Alberta Health (recall that = bureaucrats and GOVT), and muzzled any active leadership or public presence of PH
5- AH oversees all PH comms, and her govt directly ordered the supression of vaccine education/info: buff.ly/l8I9PMd

1- She has actively dismantled Public Health in AB
2- She was directly involved in the firing of our previous CMOH, not once but TWICE - sending a chill in PH to the point where AB cannot recruit expert leadership to the position
3- Blew up and disintegrated HC system

Again, we are not making any claims other than this is a fascinating set of coincidences that could potentially be what AHS was hoping to sort out.
But still, the UCP refuses to call a public inquiry to give Albertans clarity.
