Alberta Medical Association president warns of long waits, very sick kids at hospitals:

https://globalnews.ca/news/10160993/...tals-capacity/


Excerpt one:

Parks said he has communicated directly with Health Minister Adriana LaGrange to make her aware of the critical nature of the situation.

“She has reassured that senior levels of AHS (Alberta Health Services) are trying to do everything they can,” Parks said.


Excerpt two:

“We are really being strained and stressed and I’m interested to learn what is the actual state of our ICU capacity (is),” he said. “I think it it as strained as it was at some of the heights of the pandemic.

“If it’s not at 100 per cent capacity in ICU, it’s very close.”

Parks said if ICU capacity is at 100 per cent and there are no beds left, Albertans need to hear from the chief medical officer of health.
