Global News published this video item, entitled “COVID-19: Alberta health officials provide update after restrictions eased | LIVE” – below is their description.
Alberta health officials are expected to provide an update on COVID-19 at a news conference on Wednesday.
Last week, the province took the final step of its plan to ease public health measures related to the pandemic as Albertans with COVID-19 would no longer be required to self-isolate and wearing masks on public transit would no longer be required.
“We need to live with COVID-19 while accepting that it will continue to be present,” Health Minister Jason Copping said last week.
“We’ll continue to work to keep Albertans safe by ensuring access to vaccines, antivirals and rapid tests, through ongoing COVID-19 surveillance and by enhancing health-care system capacity.”
The government also said that “PCR test positivity and wastewater surveillance also show a continuing trend of declining COVID-19 transmission.”
