Alberta s top doctor says an Edmonton arena is being set up as an alternate hospital with help from the Canadian Red Cross.
Chief medical health officer Dr. Deena Hinshaw says Alberta Health Services and the national charity are putting 100 patient beds in the Butterdome arena at the University of Alberta.
She says it will take a few weeks to set up the site, but there is no plan to staff it unless the beds are needed.
Another alternate site was previously set up at Calgary s Peter Lougheed Centre.
