Vaccines are safe and effective, and there has never been a more important time to get vaccinated to protect yourself, your loved ones and our health-care system.

Minister of Health Jason Copping issued the following statement on National Catholic Health Care Week:

Alberta will accept federal support to help protect the health-care system and the health of Albertans during the fourth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Albertans will now have a simpler, more convenient way to get proof of their COVID-19 vaccination.

Alberta has declared a state of public health emergency and will implement new health measures to expand capacity, increase vaccination rates and reduce transmission of COVID-19.

Albertans can soon get their proof of vaccination on a new convenient card-sized printout through MyHealth Records.

The Recovery Access Alberta website is a one-stop shop where Albertans can find addiction-related programs and services to meet their specific needs.

A new La Crete community health facility, with a birthing centre and midwifery-led program, will ensure moms with low-risk pregnancies can give birth closer to home.

Alberta’s government and a coalition of businesses have partnered to launch a new mobile vaccination clinic focusing on worksites, rural and hard-to-reach communities.

More people from Alberta and Saskatchewan will soon have access to a new six-station kidney dialysis unit in the border community of Lloydminster.
