A public health nurse provides flu shots in Calgary during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dr. Daniel Gregson, an infectious disease physician and medical microbiologist with the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary. "Essentially we haven't been exposed to so many of these viruses for really almost two years now. So our antibodies have waned and all of the sudden you're exposed and you really don't have that kind of extra layer of protection. So people are going to be more susceptible to a variety of infections."All this comes at a time when Alberta hospitals are under extreme pressure due to a number of factors, including staffing shortages.
However, he expects that decline will be countered by an uptick in COVID-19 cases driven by the BA.4 and BA.5 variants.
Doctors brace for a small% of people getting sick like has happened every year forever. Get real. We are still tired of this bs 'news'
