Extremely proud and honoured to announce my commitment to play division I hockey at Dartmouth College. I would like to thank my family, friends, teammates and coaches for helping me reach this point! @dartmouth_MIH
That being said, we know 1st doses alone can be less effective against variants. Vaccines are about 73% effective against B.1.1.7 variant after 1 dose & 91% after 2. They are about 33% effective against Delta variant after 1st dose & dramatically rise to 80%+ after the 2nd. (5/6)
If you haven’t gotten a first dose of #COIVD19AB vaccine, AHS has walk-in 1st dose appointments at various sites across the province. Get your vaccine today if you haven’t already done so. Locations & hours can be found at: https://t.co/HTWSKqlufx
Update from Alberta... today we are double the Canadian average of cases per capita.
Our leaders are failing us.

Don’t wait. Albertans 40+ are eligible for the AstraZeneca #COVID19AB vaccine. Appointments and walk-ins are available.
Side effects from vaccines are extremely rare and much less likely than the risk of serious illness from COVID-19.
And, we have a lot of unprotected people. Highest case and hospitalization rates are in 45-65 year old range.
Waiting to me is like going onto a battlefield and saying “nah, I don’t want that shoulder to knee shield, I want the one that covers my ankles too. I’ll wait.”

It has been four days since I received the Covid-19 vaccine. Many folks have been messaging me to know how I've been feeling now. Therefore, I decided to re-visit the same frozen Lake Laberge to do my positive & joyous Bhangra dance, which explains all. Have a smileful day!
Vaccines are safe. When it’s your turn to receive the vaccine, I ask that you make the choice to be immunized. Whether you’re doing it to protect yourself or your family or those you don’t even know. Your immunization will save lives. (7/10)
