Every public health expert - “We need to reduce barriers to entry for vaccines and increase availability!”

UCP - “So you’re saying we should open up a month and a half window to rebook vaccines for a year from now?”

And we continue to see the intentional disintegration of public health in Alberta.
This is just shameful.
Vaccines save lives.
🚨 This is inexplicable news to share. If in Alberta and you want flu and covid shots for NEXT year (2026-2027), you have only until December 15 of THIS year to order them.

This is not incompetence. It’s a deliberate choice to prevent as many people ..

In December of 2022, the Govt of Canada offered 96,000 bottles of Australian Tylenol (the real brand) to Alberta.

It wasn’t AHS that refused.

It was the govt, saying that wouldn’t be enough.

How many bottles were actually used in hospitals?

9,000.
