Hospitals in Quebec are bracing for a surge of severely ill COVID-19 patients over the next month, in what many hope is the virus s last gasp. My sense is we re in for a bit of a run in the next few weeks, said Dr. Peter Goldberg, head of critical care at Montreal s McGill University Health Centre (MUHC). We re preparing for probably a worse phase than either (wave) one or two in terms of ICU numbers.

MONTREAL Health experts in Quebec are criticizing the provincial government for what they say is a confusing vaccine rollout for people with chronic conditions.
Holly Witteman, a professor at Universite Laval’s faculty of medicine, said Wednesday the appointment-booking process for people at high risk of serious complications from COVID-19 is “completely opaque.” Adding to the confusion, she said, is mixed messaging from the province.
“It just demonstrates a lack of caring and a lack of respect for people who have been living at risk for over a year now,” she said in an interview.
On Tuesday, Health Minister Christian Dube said people with certain serious medical conditions would be able to make vaccine appointments online. Later that day, the province’s Health Department issued a news release saying those people who are not hospitalized would be contacted by their medical providers to be vaccinated.
