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.

nytimes.com/2020/09/28/us/…

#bced #bcpoli
“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.

#bced #bcpoli Image
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.

1/Thread: Let’s play a game #bced!

The MofE has stated that they are following the Denmark school model.

Game: Truth or Lie

I will place some quotes, from articles, about the Denmark #Edu model and you will guess whether you think this is actually happening in BC.

#bcpoli
2/ Remember that the MofEd has promised British Columbians that after the Exam debacle, that they would ensure that every statement that comes out of their office would be vetted by a top Ministry official and be honest. #bced #bcpoli
3/ Here we go:

“She credits the success in Denmark to the co-operation between the government and the teachers' union, and said they were in constant communication and addressed staff concerns early on.”

If I were @jjhorgan, today I would:

1. Mandate masks in schools.
2. Shift schools to online learning in Fraser Health and Van Coastal.
3. Direct School Districts to use Federal Money to reduce class sizes and fix HVACs.

‼️Court case wouldn’t be necessary.

#bced #bcpoli #Lead
How "layers of protection" have changed since March. In order:

1) Distance
2) Masks
3) Ventilation

Hand washing etc is no longer in the top 3. When people state that masks are the weakest layer , they are out of date.

Thanks @rhmcgarry!

Schools are back at full capacity tomorrow. Teachers don’t feel safe and feel abandoned.

Parent court case tomorrow, too.

Important day. Time to lead @jjhorgan and have difficult conversations. Do what’s right, ask to see science and use Precautionary Principle in #bced.
These 78 world renown epidemiologists, scientists, paediatricians, & medical doctors from Stanford summarize what is accepted in science for schools, @jjhorgan. None of this science is being used in #bced and this will be your legacy if you don’t step in. Last chance.

Kind of sad that the science used in the #bced plan is the very same being used by Trump.

Dr Henry is advising parents to look to the @CDCofBC website for the source of truth.

This does not seem particularly truthful to me and there are a great number of health scientists that disagree with this stance.
