COVID-19: - Disaster numbers - a province in Canada to close again

The Alberta provincial government in Canada, on Wednesday evening, re-imposed Corona restrictions on the residents.

Meanwhile, the county’s premier, Jason Kenney, lamented that his government had reduced all restrictions and had already reopened the county this summer after 18 months of restrictions.

The decision was made this summer on the advice of county health authorities.

Background Turnaround As of Thursday, intensive care units are overcrowded with COVID-19 patients at the county hospital.

Alberta has a population of 4.3 million. The capital, Edmonton, with a population of one million, is the second largest city after Olympic organizer Calgary.

Patients: 90% are unvaccinated

It was a dire warning from a doctor in the 1960s and a hospital director a few days before that led to the transformation of the county government.

The problem lies in infection with corona with serious health problems among the unvaccinated. About 90 percent of COVID-19 patients in intensive care units have not been vaccinated.

On Wednesday, the initial negative record came with 218 patients in intensive care.

71 percent of all Albertans over the age of 12 have been fully vaccinated. According to the report, a total of 79 percent have received at least one dose of the vaccine Watchman.
