We are currently experiencing a province-wide network outage which is impacting some services. 8-1-1 Health Link is unable to receive calls at this time. If you have an emergency, call 9-1-1.

We are working to restore service and will provide updates as soon as possible.

It takes a team to care for critically sick kids. Although shot earlier in the pandemic - these amazing care givers are still at the frontline of pandemic that has now added two more viruses to the mix. Amazing care at Alberta Children’s Hospital!

Getting handover from my colleague before I take over for the week. “It’s all Flu A - the vaccinated kids are ok and going home, the unvaccinated ones are ++sick and getting admitted”

Pls get your kids the #flushot. 6mo and up.
Mask and wash your hands. 🙏🏼

None of the authorized COVID-19 vaccines in use in Canada contain the live virus that causes COVID-19. The vaccine cannot make you sick with COVID-19. Want to know more about how the COVID-19 vaccines work? Visit https://t.co/HD1xlgsw66
