Protect Our Province BC [and other groups] wants better air ventilation, a mask mandate and earlier vaccinations for families and children.
B.C. Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix have announced that mandatory masking is returning to the province’s health-care facilities as the number of COVID-19 cases continues to rise.
With less than a month until schools reopen, a coalition of doctors, nurses, health scientists and advocates for pupils and teachers is warning the NDP government about a repeat of the so-called “tripledemic.”
