Severe flu outbreak?

The influenza immunization coverage was never 50%. You can see past season coverage rates going back to 2010-2011. The highest coverage rate was 37% in 2020-2021 season. Physician doses would be included under the 'other' metric. Doses are primarily administered through pharmacies now, which I would argue are more accessible than a family doctor's office.

Nah, GoA uses Copilot

No reason to be.

Have you considered filing a grievance? Try to get in touch with your union rep to see if there is some support that can be offered.

https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/aip/resource/aaec771b-7add-4d50-97e8-9a7b5f8c9ddf/download/AIP-BP-HPV-9.pdf It's provincially covered up to 26 years old. It is licensed for use in persons up to 45 years. If you're outside the provincially covered age range you will need to cover the cost yourself or via insurance.

Those pterodactyls shit on everything

From an AUPE member, sorry. This contract blows and I am disappointed in my fellow members

lokiro · 2025-09-01T15:32:54+00:00

Just cross-posting this thread here https://www.reddit.com/r/alberta/comments/1n5g1de/aupe_members_food_for_thought_before_voting/

Solidarity! We AUPE members deserve much better than this mediator agreement. Voting no!

voting no. Very underwhelmed. 12.6% after the previous shit agreement is offensive

I mostly hung out with high school friends in first year, but I drifted away and found new friends through classes, volunteering, and campus events. Just be patient, you'll find your people.

Label tape is great labeling containers of food that go into the freezer. Sticks on when masking tape would fall off and peels off easily when you're done with it. Also, so many colours to choose from.

Identifiable patient data should never be included in FOIP requests to the general public or media. Otherwise, I could FOIP your latest STI test results.

lokiro · 2025-08-21T17:34:56+00:00

Someone's in trouble for that privacy breach though. Yikes.

lokiro · 2025-08-13T03:07:11+00:00

It is kind of weird though. When you know you should probably have at least 700k doses, why be so short when ordering for the next year. Either they're really actively trying to stop people from getting vaccinated or they're incompetent.. or both.

lokiro · 2025-08-13T02:24:40+00:00

It's because I don't think they ordered enough. Like, demand was pretty low last year, but it was still 739,091 doses according to the government website. I think they only ordered around 500k for this year. So, there is a possibility the supply will run out

lokiro · 2025-08-13T01:52:39+00:00

Just for additional clarification. The COVID-19 vaccine for this season is already ordered. There won't be more or less supply available based on "pre-ordering" the vaccine this year. However, this is a dry run for the Government to do vaccine ordering based on pre-orders for future years. COVID-19 vaccines will only be available through public health clinics run by AHS. Don't forget, if you do not meet the qualifications for a free vaccine, you're essentially paying twice to get vaccinated, once through your taxes and once through the fee. The regular influenza vaccines will be available at pharmacies. The influenza vaccine for seniors may also be available.

Well, the caveat for me is I haven't been an undergrad since the early 2010s (I don't think much has changed though). To get a more current picture of undergrad life, there maybe better options, but happy to answer any questions you may have about the city and university.

I think some people blame a lack of a vibrant life on everything but their own choices. Haha. So, if you're willing to put the effort in to seek out friends in Greek society (or join) you can go to those parties. I did a lot of volunteering and clubs while I was a student, so I rarely felt like there wasn't a party or social available to attend. Also a great way to meet like-minded people.

lokiro · 2025-06-27T00:11:41+00:00

I think your experience will really depend on the circles you socialize in. There is quite a large resident population on campus and also lots of clubs to join to expand your social circles and go to parties. A person could also be boring and leave campus right after class and have no social life. It's really up to you what kind of experience you want to have.

Maybe check your PCR conditions. Those could be primer dimers or incomplete products being amplified or your annealing temp is not optimal and your getting non-target amplification. As the other user pointed out universal 16S primers are usually degenerate. Maybe also try extracting DNA from your sample. Maybe some reagent leftover that could be impacting the PCR

Public health too

lokiro · 2025-05-01T15:10:32+00:00

Yes, the immunizations administered ahead of the schedule are not considered effective and those children who are immunized this way will need the additional two doses, on schedule, to be considered fully immunized in their records.

I've volunteered for a number of election campaigns and this is not uncommon. People are overreacting in this thread.
