Health experts weigh in on Kenney’s hopes to lift Alberta pandemic restrictions by end of March

COVID-19 restrictions could be eased by the end of March and that may include the removal of the province’s Restrictions Exemption Program. But while some health officials are cautiously hopeful, others say it’s too soon to put a timeline on any such decisions.The premier made the comments Thursday, as Alberta hit yet another all-time high when it comes to the number of people in hospital with COVID-19 at 1,469. On Friday, hospitalizations increased once again to 1,496. “I’m one of the people that wants to see an end to the Restrictions Exemption Program and as quickly as possible,” the premier said Thursday.However, Kenney also stressed that now is not the time to ease restrictions, noting hospitalizations in Alberta are at the highest they’ve been throughout the entire COVID-19 pandemic.“I very much hope that we can move towards widespread relaxation of public health measures, including the proof of vaccination program, in the foreseeable future once we start to see the pressure on hospitals trend down,” the premier said.

Doug Ford says Ontario needs to ‘learn to live with’ COVID ahead of reopening Monday

COVID-19.Ford made the comments in an interview that aired Friday on a local Peterborough, Ont., radio station, a day after the province’s top doctor made similar remarks.Asked whether Ontario’s reopening plan would work well, Ford said he’s confident it will because virus test positivity has dropped since public health restrictions took effect earlier this month.Restrictions on businesses like restaurants, gyms and theatres will ease on Monday, allowing such venues to open with capacity limits. Omicron infectivity period doesn’t appear shorter than other COVID variants: Public Health Ontario Ford said restrictions brought in this month to blunt a wave of Omicron infections are working.He noted that his government’s plan involves reopening cautiously, with 50 per cent capacity limits in place at first, and said the province needs to learn to live with the virus to get back to normal.“There’s no one in this province who wants to open up quicker than I do,” Ford told PTBO Today Radio.

Ontario reports over 1,000 deaths from COVID in January; top doc points to Delta

COVID-19 so far this month, a grim figure the province’s top doctor largely attributes to the previous, more virulent strain of the virus, though he admits the data is murky.The province has logged persistently high numbers of fatalities each day this month, despite the dominant Omicron variant of the virus typically causing milder illness and all but replacing the more severe Delta variant almost six weeks ago, while circulating among a well-vaccinated population.Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore said officials are trying to ascertain what factors are causing so many Ontarians to die, including whether Delta or Omicron or a combination of the two is responsible, but whole genome sequencing to determine variant type takes weeks.Essentially 100 per cent of outbreaks in the community are Omicron right now, Moore said, but roughly 10 per cent of hospital admissions are still “relevant to Delta.” Ontario to update data reporting so that possible incidental COVID deaths are identified: top doc “Death is a delayed signal from an outbreak, given that we’ve got access to health care and an ability to try to protect people through hospitalization and intensive care unit settings,” he said this week.“In the first several weeks of January, we’re confident that a significant proportion of (the deaths) were from Delta.”Dr.
