Maybe, maybe, vaccines save lives, but they also immediately cost lives and injure people, and not necessarily the same people that they hypothetically might save.
Alberta NDP MLA Sarah Hoffman (Edmonton-Glenora) said doctors and patients who get their flu and COVID-19 vaccines at medical clinics are right to be frustrated to hear there will be delays to access them.

Walk into any American airport today and pause. Look around at the travelers waiting at the gate, the families queuing for fast food, the crowds rushing past. You are looking at a country that our grandparents would not recognize. In less than three generations, the very shape of the American body has shifted so dramatically that what would once have been regarded as rare or concerning is now routine. Airplane seats have been widened, retail clothing racks have been extended, mannequins have been reshaped, and soda cups have been enlarged.
