As of today there is a province-wide mask mandate in AB. Everywhere, EXCEPT IN SCHOOLS.
1. Schools, where we have UNVACCINATED kids sitting in a classroom together.
#abhealth #abed
2. Schools, where there will be indoor gatherings of > 10 people indoors on a daily basis (remember, the government strongly recommends that unvaccinated Albertans limit indoor social gatherings to a maximum of 10 people)

3. Schools, where there have been no changes to optimizing ventilation.
4. Schools, where wearing masks would at least help mitigate spread of the infectious Delta variant.
5. Schools, where last school year a provincial mask mandate was in effect.
#abhealth #abed
Kids as young as 2 years old have been wearing masks this past year.
This does not make sense. Please include schools in your province-wide mask mandate.
We all want kids in school. And we want them there SAFELY.
Please include schools in your province-wide mask mandate.

It’s not clear to me whether @AHS_media mistakenly used the word “possible” here?

Let me provide the statements and sources for what CDC, PHAC and WHO say on the role of aerosols in transmission. A mini 🧵
#abhealth
CDC:
Exposure occurs in three principal ways: first one listed is: inhalation of very fine respiratory droplets and aerosol particles.
Reference:
cdc.gov/coronavirus/20… #abhealth
PHAC: “SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, spreads from an infected person to others through respiratory droplets and aerosols when an infected person breathes, coughs, sneezes, sings, shouts, or talks“

For many different reasons, it is important that our kids can return to school. And there are countries who have done so safely and successfully.
But there are several practical things to consider when our kids are going back to school. A long thread of questions on #covid :
1. How do we keep kids safe in the classroom? How do we maintain 6ft distance? Half days of kids with classes at half capacity ? Plexiglass shields around desks? Everyone wears masks ?

2. If a teacher tests positive for COVID19 they will have to quarantine for at least 10 days. What does that mean for the kids they teach?If they teach 2 classes of 20 kids each.All 40 kids would have to quarantine for 10 days too
