Sask. NDP, doctors say COVID-19 military aid could have come sooner, call for restrictions

response, doctors in the province and the official opposition are saying they are grateful but more work still needs to be done.

The federal help is welcome news to one Regina resident whose mother is in ICU at Pasqua Hospital with Guillain-Barre Syndrome. “We appreciate that something is coming in now to help support those doctors and nurses that definitely we see how much they are overwhelmed right now,” Taylor said.Taylor’s family was told earlier this week that her mother was a candidate to be transferred out of province.

While Strydom thinks the extra help and out-of-province transfers will help the health-care system, he said the challenge lies in dealing with all other procedures and consultations that were halted to deal with COVID-19 patients. Shahab said one thing he is recommending, and something the government should consider, is applying all tools like proof-of-vaccination and masking to all settings, not just ones in the public health order.Strydom agrees these tools should be expanded to fit other settings.
