52 Albertans in nine months.
It was announced today that 21 have passed due to Covid in one facility in Edmonton in two months.
But hey, they’re just old people so they don’t count, right?
I know a couple of people who work at Shepard’s Care facilities... they’ve had outbreaks of the flu in the past and the mortality rate is nothing like this... so that puts to rest the argument that these people would die if they caught the flu or a cold.
