CANADA – Alberta government overrules doctor, refuses COVID antibody testing to prove man had COVID
“I reached out to Alberta Health Services and a spokesperson told me that antibody testing is not available for Albertans unless the test is specifically okayed by the government on a case-by-case basis. They told me this sort of testing is only used for “surveillance” purposes.
But why does the Alberta government not want us to have this information? And why isn’t this policy of denying serological COVID antibody testing being conveyed to the public and doctors? And if antibody testing is used for surveillance, then why isn’t the government trying to collect as much data on COVID recovery rates as possible?”
