Health Minister Tyler Shandro said the changes follow rising vaccination numbers and comparably lower risk of severe outcomes for children who contract COVID-19. The data shows that what the vaccines are doing is making it less infectious and less deadly. That s a good thing that allows us to move to that endemic response. Doctors have criticized the changes as reckless. Noel Gibney, a professor emeritus at the University of Alberta s department of critical care, says the province s plan leaves too many unanswered questions. Why? Why are we doing these stupid things? Why are we going against all basic principles of public health?
