https://bc.ctvnews.ca/mobile/when-will-b-c-resume-vaccinations-for-frontline-workers-update-coming-next-week-1.5372290
“Henry suggested Johnson & Johnson's single-dose vaccine, which is not expected to arrive in Canada until the end of April, could be the key to getting frontline workers back in the queue.”“She also alluded to the Novavax vaccine, which has yet to be approved in Canada, as a possible candidate for those workers.”
Doesn’t sound like teachers are getting protected anytime soon.

So if there was "management", covid would run away and not kill anyone?
I know you hate Trudeau and all, I'm not a supporter of him myself, but you know who would have been far worse? Andrew Scheer, and if you need proof take a look at every province, every US state and even governments who are right wing: all of them have killed more people than their left wing counterparts. Why? Because right wing cares more about the economy than they do your loved ones lives, or even your own life for that matter. We've seen this happen throughout the world: Trump, Brazil, Turkey, any country that has a conservative government.
So please tell me you are at least an NDP supporter if you don't like Trudeau and are saying this stuff. If not and you are a Conservative, your ideology (or at least the ideology of who you'd vote for otherwise) would kill more people than Trudeau has. It is laughable, at best, if any conservative talk about covid lives in order to bash Trudeau.

We can play the what if game all we want, we really don't know how it would have turned out with the Liberals, probably worse but who knows maybe somehow better, we will never know. My point was this was piss poor planning of this roll out. Without having extra vaccines in hand ready to go they should have never used up their supply for the second dose and risk missing that second deadline. They had already pushed the 21/28 days to 32 or whatever and now they are pushing it to the CDC max 42 days that apparently they can be eligible for the shot. Talk about calling it close if you ask me, not something that should have been done in my opinion.
Especially after all this talk about the importance of earning the public's trust regarding vaccines.

From Stats Canada. I hope you didn’t need that nut.
“From January to October 2020, there were an estimated 241,257 deaths in Canada, representing an excess of 10,090 deaths above and beyond what would have been expected if there was no pandemic. In comparison, for the same period, there were 228,058 deaths in 2018 and 226,994 in 2019.”

Before the winter break, on the website, it said we would be done sometime in March or April and when we came back it was quite a shock to see we were no longer on the list,” she tells NEWS 1130, adding teachers want some kind of timeline.

@stawns you may know this...are school admin "essential"? Are teachers even considered "essential". If not, it's a travesty.
I'm ok letting people go before me...especially seniors. But there are some "essential" jobs that really aren't as important as teaching/caring for our children. I mean come on.Teachers currently out of luck and barely on the radar from what I’ve seen

your looking at the wrong numbers excess deaths are up significantly due to O.D deaths and Suicides in 2020 not a bad cold but they will lie about the cause.
something people should be looking at is the medical malpractice deaths 200k- 400k annually, how nice to have Covid as a cover for your incompetence. Basically a free pass, a get out of jail free card to cover your mistakes just say Covid who can disagree with you?.
So the pandemic started picking up speed in March, excess deaths started spiking in March, but now it's "ODs and Suicides" despite there not being any reported excess deaths since January 2018.
Get your block buttons out people it's not worth it anymore.

This cdc.gov chart literally shows excess deaths every month since the pandemic started.

Unsure where this suggests or states BC has beaten covid. Can you indicate where in this it says how suggests that?
I was not aware that Lynn Henry, Dr. Bonni Henry's sister was the spotlight at all.
Do you have issue with people writing a story or?
The primary author is BONNIE Henry, it’s right under the title of the book.

Something is definitely up.
They're inflating the covid numbers so it looks worse than it actually is.
It has always been the case but people don't believe it.
That data right there is a very clear proof.
How can that be explained otherwise?
Morgues are overflowing.
Hospitals are maxed out.

When it comes to schools I'm not entirely convinced they are being transparent. My daughter has worked in schools that have had cases that were never made public andf there's a very different set of standards for schools compared to everywhere else
There’s been schools in my district with positive cases that never made it to any exposure list. Even administration is sometimes unaware. It’s frustrating when parent conversation is the only source of knowledge regarding positive tests and exposures.

Of what percentage of cases versus tests
At this point it doesn’t matter, hospitalizations are going up up up.

Our cases, as a province, aren’t as high as theirs.
My point wasn’t about provincial cases, it’s just a case study on how one teacher came in sick and it spiralled out of control quickly.

Almost 10% of a school infected in less than two weeks. Too bad Ontario doesn’t have the magic “school force field” that BC has.

September 10
178 infected under 10
354 infected age 10-19
October 17
444 infected under 10
789 infected age 10-19
Over a 100% increase for both school-age groups, infecting in 6 weeks what it took 7 months to do before. And this doesn’t include the 800+ infections from this weekend.

I see it more as hammering the terrifying potential of this new variant, especially if it already has a firm grip in BC.
