Things are going to get bad in Alberta. I've been worried about it since our cases started to tip up this summer and govt decided we could manage a little bit of COVID-19 with Goldilocks measures. Going from 25 to 50 cases, or from 50 to 100 cases seemed manageable. It wasn't. 1/
Now, we're faced with the need for a much longer period with more restrictions on contacts to get control back. We're going to see more deaths and more long term illness than we needed to see. We're also going to miss a lot of things we all enjoy. 2/
I hope the gov't will step up and protect the people and the businesses that will now be the victims of these measures. I hope our healthcare workers can weather the storm that coming and from which there's no escape. It feels really dark today. 3/
The vaccine is a light, but it's too far away. It also makes this so much sadder. People who would be at the front of the vaccine lines are not going to make it to their first or second shot. Some cases weren't avoidable. The worst case counts in the country were. 4/
I know this is not what our government wanted. They rolled the dice. We all lost. I do not envy Premier Kenney and the choices he now has to make. But, we need him to show up and lead even as we're all going to lose a lot more. That's it. That's all I feel tonight. 5/5
