Alberta slammed over COVID outbreak at Cargill plant
Original: Alberta’s response to COVID-19 outbreak at Cargill plant was ‘catastrophic failure,’ report says
A new report says Alberta's handling of the COVID-19 outbreak at the Cargill meat processing plant near High River was a 'catastrophic failure.' The facility became one of North America's largest single-site outbreaks in 2020, sickening hundreds of workers and linked to multiple deaths. The report criticizes provincial oversight and worker protections, reviving scrutiny of how governments safeguarded meatpacking employees during the pandemic.
Why now: The newly released report's damning conclusions about a major known outbreak are drawing renewed attention to Alberta's pandemic response.
