How will Alberta’s approach to contract tracing and self-isolation impact B.C.’s COVID-19 measures?
Description
July 30, 2021
Health Minister Adrian Dix said on Friday the province won’t follow Alberta’s plans to end COVID-19 contact tracing and self-isolation for people who test positive. Dix says Alberta has "outstanding public health leadership" and "no one needs to take an approach of blame." He says we should be supporting other communities at this time instead.
