On Twitter, I would simply use the words “posted without comment.”
(1) Saskatchewan residents left waiting on bivalent COVID-19 vaccine | Globalnews.ca
Across Canada, six of the 10 provinces currently offer the bivalent vaccine to anyone 18 and older.
British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island all offer the booster to anyone 18 and older.
Quebec currently offers the vaccine to anyone 30 and older. In New Brunswick anyone 50 and older is eligible for the bivalent vaccine, while Newfoundland offers it to anyone 65 and older.

However, Saskatchewan is the only province that only offers the vaccine to adults 70 and older or 50 and older to those on First Nations and Metis communities.
I will, however, briefly touch one of many “third rails,” and ask why First Nations communities are being given differential treatment regarding covid vaccines. This will be the subject of a future post.
If it turns out that the booster is significantly net harmful, then the fact that First Nations communities are getting expedited access is going to end up being another residential schools disaster. Every single post and comment from vax skeptics will be viewed as evidence of an intentional genocide.
I really hope this doesn't happen.
Interesting that Saskatchewan is limiting the bivalent to 70+, with the noted special cases.
While the major media doesn't find it newsworthy, there was, apparently, a recent death in Saskatoon from 'natural causes', which occurred in the 15-minute waiting period post-vaccine.
Could Sask Health be a little ... thoughtful after the incident?
