The White House interfered in CDC School guidance.

Much of the minimization that took place looks similar to what transpired here in #bced.

The parallels between the US and BC are a bit jaw dropping.

“You’re impacting people’s lives for whatever political agenda. You’re exchanging votes for lives, and I have a problem with that.”

Hope that any Scientist or health official that’s confronted with such a dilemma would resign like Ms. Troye did to sound the alarm.

This recently released document by BC Children’s Hospital looks suspiciously like the US mental health guidance the White House used to justify opening. Interesting that Dr. Black was not part of this publication.

Wonder if Drs who wrote report realize that food insecurity, family violence, mental health issues—are not really the responsibility of schools? Teachers are educators, not miracle workers. Stop dumping all of society’s problems on schools! Or provide more supports. #bced #bcpoli
Here is Dr Tyler Black’s opinion on school opening—interesting it was not referred to in @CDCofBC guidance. He is an expert in teen mental health at BC Children’s Hospital.

Today is the day that it really sunk in that all levels of Govt in 🇨🇦 are prepared to let the masses get infected.

They haven’t educated citizens or Health Care Workers about long COVID either. Our govts are knowingly doing nothing to stop a Health Hazard. 💔 This is not my 🇨🇦.
Please educate someone about Long COVID.

Health Act requires Provinces provide data to Stats Can.

In BC, the @CDCofBC only counts people who die within 30 days of getting COVID as dying as COVID. Vascular disease takes > 30 days to kill.

@GovCanHealth requires all + COVID cases that die be reported.
#cdnpoli #bcpoli
2/ Means @GovCanHealth must have accurate data unless Min of Health is withholding it? And if so, Feds should fine BC until they start meeting FED & OECD standards. FOIPA data?

Vascular diseases takes longer to damage the young. It’s still COVID death though. They just hide it.

1/🧵Important Thread

For those working in unsafe conditions, this thread highlights which sections of the Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) Act may apply to your situation. You can highlight them in an unsafe work claim. It’s BC specific but may apply elsewhere. #bced #bcpoli
2/ BCCDC creates guidance for employers, and employers can choose which aspects of the guidance they want to use in their safety plan.

Guidance is not law, it’s a suggestion.

The OHS Act is law and it TRUMPS any BC CDC guidance. Important distinction.

#bced #bcpoli #cdnpoli
3/ The PHO must also follow the principles in the OHS Act when creating orders, as must @WorkSafeBC when ruling on unsafe work claims.

Act clearly states that ALL work must be carried out without undue risk of occupational disease to ANY person. OHS Act prevails. #bced #bcpoli

1/ The @CDCofBC provided a single link as scientific evidence for their #bced plan.

When you click on link, it doesn’t even take you to study, it takes you to a picture of study.

Go to page 18, and click on National and International studies. #bcpoli

bccdc.ca/Health-Info-Si…
2/ Here’s the actual study that @CDCofBC references. You’ll notice that the study stresses the CRITICAL importance of following IPAC mitigations in order to keep schools safe.

nccmt.ca/uploads/media/…

#bced #bcpoli
3/ The McMaster rapid review from August 2021 admits that none of the studies look at areas the deal with societal or structural inequities. #bcpoli

Remember this is the ONLY scientific “study” that the @CDCofBC used to justify having so few mitigations in #bced.

1-This is a thread 🧵 that looks at the annotated bibliography that the @CDCofBC provided for their back to school plan. They didn't expect you to click on the links and read it because if you do, you'll find a very different outlook than what they suggest. #bced #bcpoli #COVID19
2- Wayback machine says this document has been worked on as recently at Aug 16th, 2021 which makes me think it is what they are using for schools this year. Unbelievably none of the references are from 2021, before we knew COVID is airborne.

3- Scenario 1 of Alberta's plan -- the near normal return, which Alberta itself has superseded because Delta is destroying the Province. Check it for yourself.

Dear @BCNDPCaucus,
✴️By now you may have heard that BC has not been following what peer reviewed science is saying.
✴️You may have also learned that the @CDCofBC is deliberately not contact tracing or collecting data in #bced so they can say that schools are safe.
#bced #bcpoli
2/
✴️Review my twitter feed for past year & you will see all the scientific studies that show that BC is not following the science.
✴️Key facts we are ignoring: the virus is aerosolized and Health Care workers and essential workers need N95s to stay safe, particularly with VoCs.
3/
 ✴️BC is also ignoring how the virus is largely spread. 50% of spread comes from people who have no symptoms. The @CDCofBC has ignored warnings from around the world and REFUSED to mass test asymptomatic people. This is negligent.
