At the last press conference Dr. Henry described an aerosolized virus but did not call it one. Why?

CDC says the main way COVID-19 infects is through aerosols.

The #bced plan has no protections for an aerosolized virus.

Soap & hand sanitizer do not protect against aerosols.
2/
-Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec & Nova Scotia all have mask mandates in classrooms.
-WHO, CDC & Health Canada all recommend masks in classrooms.
-There is no scientific, logical or moral reason why masks are not mandated in #bced classrooms.
-Only 1 questionable reason.
3/
-Students are not required to social distance at school, it is recommended.
-Masks are NOT required in classrooms.
-Most Sec students in FH have 2 classes that are 2.5 hours in length.
-Many classrooms with 30 desks do not allow for 1 meter of distancing between desks. #bced
4/ These are the very conditions, identified by scientists around the world and here in Canada, that promote aerosolized spread.

Why isn’t the @CDCofBC, @WorkSafeBC and the PHO creating a plan to mitigate against an aerosolized virus?
Some school districts only have 15 students in a Secondary class at 1 time.

Other Districts are at max capacity.

When positivity rate is high coupled with high community transmission, studies show schools do drive infections.

Guess which districts have full classes? #bced
-School Districts have a fiduciary responsibility to protect their employees from illness.
-Fact is, children do infect adults.
-Employees need protection from co-workers in schools as well.
- @jjhorgan must mandate masks so SDs can fulfill their fiduciary duty.

Dr. Zoe Hyde is well respected epidemiologists who specializes in children.

This is what she told the World about @jjhorgan’s declaration that children don’t transmit the virus.

She also has the peer reviewed studies to back up her stance. The @bcndp do not.
