WINNIPEG Lanette Siragusa has become a familiar face in Manitoba. In the first few months of the pandemic, Shared Health’s Chief Nursing Officer provided daily COVID-19 updates alongside Dr. Brent Roussin, the Chief Provincial Public Health Officer. Siragusa even returned to the frontlines during the pandemic taking a shift at a personal care home dealing with an outbreak. A year after the first case was identified in Manitoba, life has been anything but normal for Siragusa, who now gets recognized out in public. “We’re not a small town, but the fact that people can come up and talk to you, and you know, sometimes there’s constructive criticism. Sometimes there’s encouragement, and I accept it all with gratitude,” Siragusa told CTV News.
