MEDICINE HAT, AB – Alberta’s chief medical officer of health has written a letter about the lifting of COVID 19 protocols that has been sent to various media outlets including Pattison Media.
In the letter, Dr. Deena Hinshaw apologizes that her words are causing confusion, fear and anger.
Hinshaw says the decision to lift isolation requirements, stop asymptomatic testing, and eliminate contact tracing is meant to support the whole health of Albertans so the province can focus on other health threats.
