Alberta Health Services (AHS) is reporting they're nearing the maximum number of bookings it can handle for its current supply of the Covishield/AstraZeneca vaccine. Alberta is supposed to get more supply of this vaccine "this spring," according to a news release, but it is not clear exactly when. We have nearly booked all the appointments for the existing supply of the AstraZeneca #COVID19AB vaccine - but there are spots remaining. https://t.co/uoGSa0ftud —@CMOH_AlbertaThe AHS online booking tool for the Covishield/AstraZeneca vaccine also had some issues Saturday morning. The positivity rate for the past week is sitting at 4.8 per cent, and five new deaths were also reported, according to Alberta's chief medical officer of health, Dr. Deena Hinshaw.
