Here's what @xiaoxuyvr just asked Bonnie Henry and Education Minister Whiteside about #N95s. #BCpoli #BCed
Dr. Henry says these experts don't take into account the extra layers of protection afforded students in particular: it's the same people mixing the whole time and daily screenings should filter out #COVID19-positive people. #BCpoli
Dr. Henry says "we need to be pragmatic and practical" and reiterates her recommendation that the best mask is a good-quality one that fits snugly and that you wear. Here is the 2010 study we referenced: #N95s #BCpoli #BCed
Whiteside says that she is following Dr. Henry's masking advice and K-12 students will be given three-layer masks when they arrive in school on Monday and work to enforce the message about how important it is to wear them properly. #BCed #BCpoli #N95s

B.C.'s top doctor says her decisions throughout the pandemic have been based on the best information available, but haven't been mathematical certainties. Because of #Omicron's spread, new order today requiring all businesses on Canada's West Coast to have #COVID19 safety plans.
"This has been proven to work," Dr. Bonnie Henry tells reporters. This order doesn't apply to K-12, childcare or university and college settings. These plans will bring in barriers, keep people more separated and allow more employees to work from home, if possible. #BCpoli
B.C. will begin to #FreetheRATs starting next week to test symptomatic students and staff in the K-12 school system, Dr. Henry says. So far, tests deployed in remote and First Nations communities and higher-risk businesses. I.e. 100k given out to nursing and retirement homes.
