I wonder if that is discussed in her book...... writing a book during a pandemic.... maybe she should be focussing more on her JOB....... Masks were mandated on all public transit months ago. They’re now mandated in public spaces as well. The provincial health guidelines have been in place since March. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 27 in his class, at least 20 said they were travelling for Xmas, with several of them going to Alberta. That is unbelievable.........what is wrong with people? After telling us that, he then told us of his wifes experience in a local elementary school yesterday. She's an itinerant counsellor in our district and she was at one of her schools yesterday when the principal took her aside and said "don't go to teacher x's class today........a student's family went to a party last week and they all tested positive and he's waiting for test results and he's here today because the contact tracing isn't complete and we're not allowed to force him to stay home and we're not allowed to tell people until the contact tracing is complete. The first story is unbelievable, the second one, I don't have words for. I suggested all teachers take 5 sick days the first week back The second part sounds like BS to me and I wouldn't sit quietly and allow this to happen. Someone's head needs to roll here. Because if a student has been tested, they're to stay home until they get results back. So either the Principal needs to be called out or the child needs to be sent home until the results are back: Quote If your child was tested for COVID-19, the child should remain home to self-isolate until the results are provided to you. This means you should go directly home after their test. Your child should stay home from school and not see visitors. Visit the self-isolation page for details. Your child can stop isolating and return to school if they test negative and their symptoms are gone - unless they have been asked by public health to continue to self-isolate. This might happen if your child has been exposed to someone with COVID-19. If your child tests positive, public health will provide instructions on when they can end isolation. You can expect to know your child's results in about 48 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post -DLC- Posted December 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2020 Dr. Bonnie IS allowed to have a life during this....I mean, she's having to isolate so what better use of that time than to write a book? I'm not sure we can find fault in her for doing that...it's become a bit of a witch hunt. No one here likely works 24 hours a day 7 days a week and I'm not sure we should expect her to. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well good on you. I understand... it is probably a much easier way to live. Good for you. I prefer to face reality though.. even if it isn't always pretty... 100% true...except where it isn't. The only things you choose to ignore appear to be, the truth; facts, reality and humility. See below in reference to a response to your initial statement On 12/17/2020 at 3:38 PM, Warhippy said: She has been upfront and requested, suggested/told people masks are in fact part of a multi layered line of defence against covid since about mid April. As per her statement, mid April. We know that people want to do the right thing when they understand the reasons behind our thinking and have the tools they need to do what is asked of them. Mask use is important, and we need everyone to have the same understanding of our expectations. Wearing a mask will never eliminate all risks, but it is a significant part of the layers of protection that can help protect us, our loved ones and our community. Now more than ever, it is a measure we must all take. An order can never replace our personal commitment. We need to be responsible for our own actions - that is how we all pull together. I wear a mask, and I expect each of you who can to wear one too. https://globalnews.ca/news/7423664/coronavirus-bc-masks-in-public/ Her reiteration of that statement as per November https://bc.ctvnews.ca/dr-bonnie-henry-op-ed-why-b-c-doesn-t-have-a-universal-mask-mandate-1.5191721 Original statement as per April when the science was NOT in fact concrete There is growing interest and adoption of face masks in Western countries as infection rates in some Asian countries with longtime mask use appear to be slow and with a “flatter curve” than the exponential growth in infections seen in Europe and the United States. “This is something that we've been considering as well, knowing what's been going on around the world,” said provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry when asked if she would endorse fabric or consumer-grade face masks. “They're not a medical mask, but they can keep your droplets in when you're out and about with others. What is not proven, is that they provide you any protection.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Written WITH Lynn Henry and if you look at the actual book it is essentially a background of Dr Bonnie Henry's past and credentials and a few weeks/months of her life as told by her sister. I have a lovely book about pink Floyd by pink Floyd but written by someone else. Doesn't mean the band members wrote it. So do you have issue with people writing books or?
