Canada's healthcare system 'very fragile', even as COVID-19 recedes, says official
OTTAWA Healthcare systems across Canada are still very fragile from efforts needed to fight COVID-19, even as signs suggest a fourth wave is starting to recede, a top medical official said on Friday (Oct 15).
The profitability of this type of game is very simple, just by starting to play สล็อตออนไลน์ and pressing the spin, and it can be profitable for the players as well.
Chief public health officer Theresa Tam said it was important for health workers to get vaccinated and prevent hospitals from becoming overwhelmed.
"Everybody's exhausted. And if health care workers have to go into quarantine for example, after exposure, the system simply isn't going to be sustainable," she told a briefing. "Our health systems are still very fragile."
Official data show that as of Oct 8, 81 per cent of Canadians aged 12 and over have received two shots against COVID-19.
That said, COVID-19 is still posing serious problems in the western provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan, which lifted most restrictions in July only to see cases soar.
"Surveillance data from this week indicates that although the virus continues to surge and present ongoing challenges in several areas ... overall we're observing a decline in COVID-19 disease activity nationally," Tam said.
She also urged Canadians to get their annual shots against the flu, which is worst in the winter months.
