Fears Alberta’s fourth wave may worsen strain put on hospitals
Description
October 12, 2021
Despite signs COVID-19 cases may be peaking in Alberta, hospitals and health workers are still being pushed to their limits by the Delta variant-driven fourth wave. The concern now is that Thanksgiving gatherings and loose restrictions may still fuel a bigger surge amid low vaccinations in parts of the province. Heather Yourex-West looks at how one Alberta family is grieving and how vaccine misinformation was a factor.
