A @WorkSafeBC #covid19bc claim must demonstrate higher exposure at work vs daily life so you must list exposures from: gym, worship, friends &family. Effectively, by removing #maskmandate , #PHO has undermined *every* WS claim unless we forego ALL socials outside of work 1/ 
@WorkSafeBC ....Effectively a claim can be denied due to Public health removing public protections &workers who have ANY social life, who does not receive *meds* (paxlovid? few workers eligible) & who does not personally mask up consistently...oh AND family members 2/
@WorkSafeBC But note, this claim form is also telling us that sports, gyms & workplaces where non household people gather socially ( where? like restaurants? pubs?) are full of #covid19bc & you,the worker must show that you take precautions in that social realm ...reposting image 3/

Are you mentally capable of surviving a mask mandate in order to relieve pressure on the health system?

I had a chance to go to this @VSOrchestra Orpheum Theatre built after the Spanish Flu to be *pandemic proof* and WOW. This ventilating system is FULLY OPERATIONAL. Huge crowd 1/n
@VSOrchestra And under the seats there were these mushroom shaped objects...Fresh air from pipes provided a very gentle stream of air & note these air intakes were protected by the mushroom design. the stem emitted air, the umbrella part protected it 2/n
@VSOrchestra The air rose above the seats to the porous false ceiling above to vent all that air out! This was built in 1927 & it has better ventilation than most modern buildings #PandemicProof architecture 3/n

āAfter 2 yrs of acknowledging the dangers of #COVID19, something eerily similar has happened with public health policy across the western world.ā
āFed & muni govts in NA, Eur & Aus have begun lifting basic protections like š & #maskmandate, winding down public testing, ending contact tracing & withholding critical PH data, like case counts, hospitalization numbers, wastewater results & even the size of local outbreaks.ā
āPandemic management has been transformed from a PH problem to an individual one.ā

One million dead from COVID is a monumental tragedy, and there is nothing normal about it. Our thoughts are with the millions of people across the country who have lost loved ones over the past two years. 1/3
We should be mourning and working collectively to honor those who passed by preventing more illness and death. Instead, our leaders have largely abandoned the vulnerable and stopped trying to contain this disease.

The more I think about airlines abruptly allowing mask removal w/o warningāmid-flight for manyāthe angrier I get. People who are #immunocompromised had no choice not to travel or to upgrade their protection at that point. Some will go on to die. As an oncologist, I am enraged.
If you havenāt had #cancer or been a caregiver to someone with it, you donāt know how much people endure. Iām a breast oncologist. Our patients have breasts amputated, lose their fertility, go bald, risk nerve damage, infection, & more from chemo, because they want to live.
The fact that the airlines made a corporate decision to drop masks w/o warningāany airline couldāve chosen to give crew/passengers hrs or days of noticeādisgusts me. For an industry that prides itself on safety, this is a fail.

#Physicians in #NorthDakota who speak š£ out on need for necessary precautions have been ostracized and dismissed. #NorthDakota lost 3 state health directors in 1st months of the #pandemic. Public health officials have had hands tied. Those who continue to speak out have 1/
received threats from public and discouraged by state officials. Our state has 54% vaccination rate and #masks are optional with very few wearing. The only time our state imposed a #MaskingMandate is when our #hospitals were beyond capacity & Governor & other officials wanted 2/
#nurses to work when #COVID positive if no or mild symptoms. The #ND #Nursing association stepped in & pushed back thus leading Governor to take steps one āš¼ of which was #MaskMandate. That lasted relatively shortly & now in #NorthDakota very little precautions taken. 3/

Important to return to policy decisions & their #publichealth impact. @mayorbowser lifted the #maskmandate for DC on 11/22/21, despite many incl me (see below) begging her not to. It was restored 4w later on 12/21/21. Too late. Cases of #COVID19 in DC š 3300% since Thanksgiving.
I truly hate being right about this. We are all tired of masks, but arenāt we are all MORE tired of this #pandemic? Whether or not anyone is āwilling to letā #COVID19 control their life, if they were ticketed on one of the >3K US flights canceled over Xmas wknd due to #Omicronā¦
If their kid is being taught by different substitute teachers every few wks in mult classes because teachers are out sick or home with their own sick or quarantined kids, if their small business goes under because #Omicron interrupts supply chains & they canāt fulfill ordersā¦
š§µI have to say it: Christmas break is going to be bad. I'm watching confirmed #COVID19 casesā¬ļø exponentially at our highly-#vaccinated school w/ a #MaskMandate & HEPA filters in every class. Make a plan now for how you'll handle Xmas & #quarantine when someone gets #Omicron.
2/ Think about how you can create a separate space for the person(s) infected. Remember #OmicronIsAirborne. Pick a rm w/ windows to open & its own door if your home allows. Today put a fan there that can be used to improve air exchange. Put a š”ļø, an O2 sat monitor, good masks.
3/ Go get a MERV13 filter for your HVAC at Home Depot or Lowe's or online. While here, get the stuff to build a simple, inexpensive, highly-effective Corsi-Rosenthal box. You can see what this is here. Build it now so it's ready.
š§µIt is now clear that we are going to have to get people to #MaskUp to get thru winter without US health care system collapse. #Omicron is way too contagious. #VaccinesWork & #GetBoosted, but they will not be enough on their own. So this thread is for people who hate masks:
2/X: If you hate masks because the ear loops make your ears sore, google "ear savers." That's the term I've seen used for various products that spare your ears w/ masks. Examples in pics, but if you can sew on a button, make some. What else are you gonna do in #quarantine?
3/X: You can get a beanie, headband, baseball cap, head scarf, whatever & attach button or hooks of any kind that you can get from any sewing store or online, & attach your mask loops to that. Ear pain solved! It's important to have a snug fit so try diff distances.
I know personally 3 people receiving monoclonal antibodies this evening. All have had 3 doses of #COVID19 #vaccine or prior infection + 2 doses of vaccine. All are careful. They all have risk factors, but all are pretty symptomatic. Jan is gonna beā¦rough. #MaskUp. #Omicron
Tweet 2: A lot of people seem to be panicking based on this anecdote. Panic is NOT productive. Instead you need to calmly plan & act to reduce your risk. These are some effective things you can do right now:
šUpgrade your masks. No more cloth alone. Best is N95/KN95/KF94...
šUpgrade your masks. No more cloth alone. Best is N95/KN95/KF94...
Tweet 3: As an alternative to N95/KN95/KF94, if you can't tolerate those or don't have them, I rec a surgical mask (ASTM level 3, 3-ply is great) w/ cloth mask over it. Read this: scientificamerican.com/article/why-weā¦. The non-profit @projectn95 has vetted, affordable PPE including masks.
We are happy to welcome students from Std 1 onwards #BackToSchool on Dec 1. Safe resumption of schools is being considered to ensure all students have equal access to education amidst the pandemic. @CMOMaharashtra @AjitPawarSpeaks @scertmaha @MahaDGIPR @msbshse @Balbharati_MSBT
Usage of masks will be mandatory for children at all times. Teachers and school staff to ensure strict compliance to masking up. #BackToSchool #maskmandate @bb_thorat @INCIndia @IYCMaha
For the safety of the staff & students, vaccination has been made mandatory for teachers/staff. Only fully vaccinated staff will be allowed in premises. School transport operators also must be fully vaccinated. #SafeSchools #VaccineMandate
Lots of people who donāt remotely mind terrified, freezing refugees drowning in the Channel will shortly appear here, incandescent with rage that they may be required to wear a piece of fabric over their nose & mouth for 15 mins when theyāre in a shop.
