Canadian PressOTTAWA — The president of the Public Health Agency of Canada is stepping down as the country heads into the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Tina Namiesniowski, who has been in the job only since May 2019, sent a letter to staff on Friday to say months of responding to the global health crisis has taken a personal toll on many people. “Although we are very resilient, none of us are superhuman and I put myself in that category,” she wrote.She said she does not want to leave the federal public health agency without leadership at such a crucial time.
“I feel I must step aside so someone else can step up,” she said, adding that it was a tough, but right, decision. “You really need someone who will have the energy and the stamina to take the agency and our response to the next level,” she wrote. “And, even though I might not have accomplished everything I would have liked to have done, I truly hope the foundation for change I’ve championed through our work on PHAC of the future will help serve as a road map moving forward.”

“Sweden has gone from being one of the countries with the most infection in Europe to one of those with the least infection in Europe, while many other countries have seen a rather dramatic increase,” says Anders Tegnell, the state epidemiologist.
