Few wearing any kind of mask, people outdoors on the sidewalk doing rapid tests - *lots* of coughing.
Appointments at this clinic not accessible for immunocompromised.
Just what #BonnieHenry wants.

Didn’t see the staff but 9 unmasked including 3 coughing in a 10’ x 20’ waiting room.
Now I’m no engineer but even I know this is a
C🤬vid death trap!

Thinking about PHO #BonnieHenry this morning and wondering if there is a metric that she can be called 'successful'
- #BC is leading (continues) in # of unexplained deaths - after expected/actual drug overdoses, regular deaths, heat dome etc AKA these are COVID deaths not /2
- #BC is leading (continues) in # of unexplained deaths - after expected/actual drug overdoses, regular deaths, heat dome etc AKA these are COVID deaths not /2
counted as COVID
- #BC leads in overdose deaths, and these have increased during her tenure as PHO
- #BC has done nothing to prepare for future Heat Waves and to prevent death of elderly and vulnerable (I know people who literally cooked to death)
I guess.../3

we have some insight when she says things like: "Fatalities are part of life"
and her metrics are: no more masks (like those Asian cultures)! and Open the wineries (to support my winery business), and she ignores Long Covid (per above) /4

A @WorkSafeBC #covid19bc claim must demonstrate higher exposure at work vs daily life so you must list exposures from: gym, worship, friends &family. Effectively, by removing #maskmandate , #PHO has undermined *every* WS claim unless we forego ALL socials outside of work 1/ 
@WorkSafeBC ....Effectively a claim can be denied due to Public health removing public protections &workers who have ANY social life, who does not receive *meds* (paxlovid? few workers eligible) & who does not personally mask up consistently...oh AND family members 2/
@WorkSafeBC But note, this claim form is also telling us that sports, gyms & workplaces where non household people gather socially ( where? like restaurants? pubs?) are full of #covid19bc & you,the worker must show that you take precautions in that social realm ...reposting image 3/
This is not the Canada I know and love. We are in a dark place.

This, in BC, is directly due to the BC Public Health leadership, our BC leaders not questioning them and our media not questioning them. Killing us softly.

I had the opportunity to chat with 2 BC Doctor's last night. One an ER Doc the other an Internal Medicine Doc. Both young and respected in their fields. First point, I was masked, they weren't.

This was just a social conversation and of course anecdotal but to me terrifying and enlightening. They both think #bonniehenry is amazing and doing an excellent job. They both spoke of Covid in the past tense.
As they seemed to minimize Covid I asked them their thoughts on Long Covid. One said it really doesn't excist. The other said BC is closing Long Covid units as there is no treatment for it and it's a waste of limited HC resources.
I am extremely frustrated with the level of obfuscation and lack of clear science and rigour underpinning our #COVID19 response in BC. I would like to share some correspondence as I think it's important for citizens to know what is happening.

2/ My email to the Ministry of Health (I was bounced there by Attorney General. I might post that nonsense chain at some point).
Written just after removal of universal masking ('mask mandates').

3/ The Ministry of Health reply. You will note my questions are not answered, and the reply includes language exactly like the canned nonsense #bonniehenry provides at press conferences. It's also in line with the dreadful 'education' campaigns - posters, social media, etc.
1/I am really upset at pic emerging wrt massive (& dangerous) overstepping of BC's Provincial Health Officer (#bonniehenry) & regional MHOs into building engineering, a legally regulated engineering practice in which they have no training or license to practice
#COVIDisAirborne

2/ To recap, building engineering is a regulated practice. The application of ASHRAE technical standards and guidance = building engineering. Only appropriate P.Engs can practice building engineering.
3/ Any regulated engineering work MUST be backed by a Responsible Engineer / Engineer of Record. There must be a paper trail ("Authenticated Documents") of work product and assurance that underpins engineering advice relied on by others.
I am livid. The hospital has taken my husband off his pulse oximetry (measures the O2 in his blood) & only check it every so often when they do BP.
They want to d/c him tomorrow a.m.--WITHOUT doing the ultrasounds his specialist requested.

I've been talking to him and he's depressed and angry.
Anyone who knows anything about healthcare knows that PATIENT OUTCOMES SUFFER when patients are DEPRESSED, ANGRY, AND ISOLATED FROM LOVED ONES.

Do you HEAR THAT, #BonnieHenry? Your POLICIES are HURTING MY HUSBAND'S HEALTH.
Unvaccinated people in BC don't get the same health care as others. That's the outcome of these policies.

1/ The error conflating short-range airborne transmission (aerosol inhalation) with large droplet (sprayborne) transmission is alive an well in this Facebook post from a Philippines Government advisor:
[Can't reply there, so I will here]
[Can't reply there, so I will here]
2/ He is strangely defining airborne as ONLY long range. That makes no sense.
The protection measures depend on the mechanism, NOT ON THE DISTANCE.
3 key mechanisms per @CDCgov
(1) Aerosol inhalation
(2) Large droplet spray
(3) Surface touch

3/ It is clear that aerosol inhalation, i.e. airborne transmission (at ALL DISTANCES) is the dominant mode of transmission. There is overwhelming evidence of this, e.g.:
