COVID-19 >>"True and Helpful" Covid Information Thread

True I think. But the difference has always been so great

Has it been like that since the pandemic started?

Yes. Alberta has always been exceptionally low on ICU ratio

 .. also always  lead Canada in lowest deaths / case

We had ovr three hundred people in ICU during our worst peak.....which is our maximum capacity..



We were sending patients to other provinces.

I recall that when things got really bad



Just after New years, you guys had 40,000 cases in that week .. is that the time frame you are referring to?

It was a previous wave.....Delta I believe.

BERLIN -- A 60-year-old man allegedly had himself vaccinated against COVID-19 dozens of times in Germany in order to sell forged vaccination cards with real vaccine batch numbers to people not wanting to get vaccinated themselves.



The man from the eastern Germany city of Magdeburg, whose name was not released in line with German privacy rules, is said to have received up to 90 shots against COVID-19 at vaccination centers in the eastern state of Saxony for months until criminal police caught him this month, the German news agency dpa reported Sunday.



He was caught at a vaccination center in Eilenburg in Saxony when he showed up for a COVID-19 shot for the second day in a row. Police confiscated several blank vaccination cards from him and initiated criminal proceedings.





[I'll leave it to conspiracists who claim 1 shot kills you to explain this 60 year old guy with 90 shots & from a mixture of brands is still bouncing around between shot locations like a teenager]  :001_rolleyes:
