Role of Medical Officers of Health

In this instalment of Conversations with Yiu, I (Dr. Verna Yiu) welcome three AHS Medical Officers of Health (MOHs) to my weekly vlog: Dr. Nicholas Etches, Dr. Albert de Villiers and Dr. Kathryn Koliaska. My guests talk about the work of MOHs during the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of contact tracing in limiting the spread of the virus, and what all Albertans should keep in mind as public health restrictions are eased during the province’s relaunch strategy. I also send warm wishes to the province’s EMS teams as National Paramedic Services Week wraps up, and share some thoughts to keep in mind as we all prepare ourselves for the months ahead.
