Alberta discontinuing bi-weekly press conferences/updates completely and will change how reporting is done the fall.
Upcoming changes to how public health officials monitor COVID-19, which are supposed to make things more sustainable, will affect the public data dashboard later this summer, Hinshaw said.
"In the fall, Alberta Health will change its COVID reporting so it aligns with that of its influenza dashboard, showing how the two respiratory illnesses are spreading, she added.
The stoppage of regular in-person updates is part of this transition, Hinshaw said.
"We're entering a phase of the pandemic where our response can be de-escalated, while we remain vigilant and prepared to respond to new variants that may drive another wave of cases and hospital admissions," Copping said Wednesday."
