No, but there have only been 8 confirmed cases in a city of 60K or so here....none of my friends or family elsewhere have had it to my knowledge either.

4.4 million people in Alberta. 7000 cases. Nope, don't know anyone. Don't know anyone that knows anyone either
Thankfully we never hit the 800000 they predicted early on from their models. Would probably know someone then

Neighbors husband has been recovering from it, he's in a care facility due to his MS and is 75, but he seems to be getting better.

My wife's sister is a PhD medical lab researcher and is working on researching it at the U of C.
