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.

-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.

-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 isnât 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 @jjhorganâs declaration that children donât transmit the virus.
She also has the peer reviewed studies to back up her stance. The @bcndp do not.

Here is a summary of all the peer reviewed research that proves that schools can, and do, drive transmission up.
-Schools need smaller class sizes, masks, distancing, proper ventilation and low community transmission to operate safely.
