Public health officials are warning COVID-19 infections may increase in severity as the latest subvariant – known as XB.1.5, or Kraken – spreads in Canada.

The latest guidance from NACI, he said, includes that boosters "remain one of our best defences" against the most severe outcomes of COVID-19. While not everyone experiences severe symptoms, they can include trouble breathing, persistent pain and pressure in the chest, confusion, inability to wake up or stay awake, and pale grey- or blue-coloured skin, lips and nails, according to a Health Canada. Anyone experiencing these should call 911.

Pilot projects at two major airports – in Vancouver and Toronto – will see the testing of wastewater from flights originating from China and Hong Kong.

Increase in 'Kraken' COVID-19 subvariant renews calls for booster shotsPublic health officials are warning COVID-19 infections may increase in severity as the latest subvariant – known as XBB.1.5, or 'Kraken' – spreads into Canada. You’ve got a better chance of dying from an actual kraken. I see Trudeau is still pushing to get rid of the overstocked jabs he purchased that no one wants. cases are not deaths or hospitalisations. At this point vaccine injuries, and totalitarianism are outpacing any harm from the virus.
