Yesterday, BSA made an announcement that has been two years in the making. While a majority of us, if not all of us, are feeling fatigue when it comes to the pandemic headlines, this is worth celebrating.

Yesterday, for the first time in two years, the BSA Hospital Intensive Care Unit had zero Covid-positive patients.
