BC desperately needs this story to be picked up by the press. Long Covid sufferers have been abandoned, uninformed by our PHO, BCPH, our government. The scandal is how long they all knew & did not warn the public. Every day more BCers are becoming infected w/Covid, not 1/ BCPoli
…fully understanding the risks of long Covid. Many will become long Covid sufferers, including children.
#BCMedia please cover this story. Please investigate. #BCPoli #DoNoHarm 2/

Long Covid is going to affect BCers for decades. Those already suffering need diagnosis, treatment, the BC Long Covid clinics have been shuttered.
More cases must be prevented

1. Please bear with me for a #bced thread, as I try to make sense of the dispute over what the govt/employer side is calling "changes" and what the @bctf says are concessions at the bargaining table, regarding class size and composition #bcpol
2. My understanding is that the govt/employer (represented by the BC Public School Employers' Assn - "BCPSEA") is proposing class size and composition language that would be applied to all school districts, and that this is a change, not a concession, to current language.
3. Following the @BCTF'S 2016 victory in the Supreme Court of Canada, old contract language (pre- 2002) was restored. Bargaining used to be done locally, so contract provisions varied from district to district.
