AHS fails to read the room

Alberta Health Services, the group of dedicated communists running Alberta’s health care system issued a mask mandate for all acute care facilities in the province.  They are following the lead of their comrades in British Columbia who instituted a similar rule last week.  AHS re-instated the mask mandates for several reasons;

  1. COVID test positivity percentage and new cases have been rising.
  2. They are stupid enough to believe a piece of cloth will magically block a virus.
  3. They think Albertans are Stupid enough to go along with this farce again.

AHS could not have been more wrong on that last point.  Albertans were more reluctant than other Canadians to go along with COVID tyranny.  In the end it cost Premier Jason Kenney and Chief medical officer Deena Hinshaw their jobs. And, it appears, even gullible Albertans have seen through this scam.  As of the first of October only 6000 Albertans have taken the new jab with the uptake falling dramatically each week.

6000 is 0.13% of the population.  Or, put another way, 99.87% of Albertans see through AHS’s bullshit.

It did not take AHS long to understand how badly they misjudged Albertans and only days later they changed their guidance.  AHS is trying to back away from their stupidity by throwing the decision on to local authorities.

AHS announced the new directive Wednesday afternoon. The health authority said the policy change will allow officials at the health-zone level, in collaboration with facility leadership, to impose “enhanced masking” protocols for doctors, midwives and other staff, mandating them to wear masks in all public-facing areas.

Thankfully the latest attempt at medical tyranny did not even survive a week.  Albertans have finally woken up to the scam of COVID.  COVID started as a bad flu and then morphed in to a bad cold.  It was never an emergency.  The government engineered the whole thing by enforcing medical malpractice and attributing every death possible to COVID.  Interestingly they now admit as much on their new Respiratory Virus Tracking Website.

They want you to believe we still have a problem but caution you that you cannot compare old numbers to new because we changed the way we report COVID deaths.  Isn’t that interesting?  Suddenly car accidents are no longer COVID deaths.  Even more interesting to me is the date AHS chose to stop lying about COVID.  February 1st 2022 is 3 days after the Freedom convoy arrived in Ottawa and 2 days after the Coutts border crossing was blockaded.

February 1st was the first day of business after those 2 events so the very first thing the government did in response to the protests was to stop lying about COVID deaths.  For those of you who say the protests accomplished nothing please tell me another time the public forced the government to stop lying.

The organizers of the freedom Convoy are currently on Trial and the wing nut judge (are there any other kind in Canada?) is allowing pro government supporters to testify how afraid they were of polite truckers in hot tubs.  So the jury only gets to hear the downside of the protest.  What about the upside?  Why can’t I go and testify about the enormous positive benefits of not allowing the government to lie?

Governments will of course continue to lie but at least in Alberta the government is learning it can no longer lie about COVID.
