Here is a summary of the December 16th #COVID19AB update. It was written using predictive A.I. and sent back in time by angry ghosts. (1/6)

We have identified 3,109 new cases, with 28,765 active cases in the province currently. Sadly, I must also report 41 additional deaths. My heartfelt condolences to your family. (2/6)

I’m very concerned that we may be at an inflection point. We have already reduced public gatherings to a few dozen people, give or take, and limited Albertan's Holiday calendars to no more than four Secret Santa’s, two ugly sweater parties, and one shaker. (3/6)

We may need to reduce Holiday shopping to 6 days a week and mall hours to 7:30pm except on Fridays. This virus seems pretty bad. (4/6)

We all have a part in how Alberta will fare in the weeks and months ahead. For instance, have you tried plugging your nose and ears with cotton and breathing slowly through your mask? (5/6)

If you reside in a community on the enhanced list, refrain from any social gatherings comprised of more than 50% acquaintances, and please wear a mask until the hostess has seated your party.
