\u201cI feel that now we\u2019ve had almost a year of relative stability in regard to not having any other variants that could really put us on the back foot if they were completely resistant to the protection we already have from infection.\u201d \u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler

\xa0

\u201cI think that if you are at risk for severe disease, I think [the second booster shot is] certainly something you should be taking.\u201d \u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler

\xa0

\u201c[Employees] realize that the reason they\u2019re being asked [to be screened for COVID-19] is that there\u2019s a duty of care from their employer and that this is not to stop them from traveling but to put measures in place to make their travel safer.\u201d \u2014 Dr. Adrian Hyzler
