A new year is upon us! As we start 2025, many readers have written in about their hopes for the year. Here are what five disability advocacy groups and community members highlighted as the changes they want to see most in the coming year.
As part of DoNoHarm BC’s #Postcards4PublicHealth campaign, we’ve invited British Columbians to share their stories about the lack of Covid safety in BC – particularly the loss of mask protections in healthcare.
We’ve come a long way from the days of general mask mandates for the public, but a recent move to eliminate the requirement in B.C. health care settings is causing some outcry.
Protesters calling on the B.C. government to bring back face mask mandates in “high-risk” settings have gathered near a Vancouver SkyTrain station.
On Monday, August 28th, British Columbians gathered outside the MLA office of Health Minister Adrian Dix to demand the restoration of universal masking in healthcare settings, alongside other key safety measures.
As of April 8, 2024, masks are “no longer required in healthcare settings” in BC. This decision comes after data showing decreased COVID-19 levels in the province. However, COVID-19 hasn’t suddenly become less dangerous, nor has it disappeared.
