NEW - Two children have died in B.C. in the past two weeks related to influenza. Early findings indicate both children experienced secondary bacterial infections. In kids, flu activity is at the highest levels since the start of this respiratory season. #bcpoli

Metro Vancouver wastewater COVID surveillance data was published November 16. The most recent test was November 6. @COVIDPoops19
Canadian COVID Forecast: Nov 4 - 17, 2023 SEVERE: CAN, AB, BC, MB, NB, NL, North, NS, ON, PEI, QC, SK VERY HIGH: none HIGH: none ELEVATED: none MODERATE: none LOW: none About 1 in 23 people in Canada are CURRENTLY infected.
So many of us have been saying from the start that an airborne virus needed more than just droplet protection. That the powers that be need to look at ventilation. We were mocked, ridiculed, threatened. Glad to see some mainstream validation.@masks4canada cbsnews.com/news/indoor-ai…
A little BC vaccine story for you all. This is also why you need to check what you are being given. If you are getting a Covid shot in BC right now please make sure it says 2023/2024 XBB.1.5 and either COMIRNATY or SPIKEVAX on the vial. Here's why.... 1/3
Updated StatCan excess mortality estimates are out today. Mortality rates in BC are still elevated, resulting in increasing cumulative excess mortality. At some point I would have expected to see effects of mortality displacement, but still no sign of that in BC.
Spoke with pharmacist just now, they're swamped with paperwork of filling paxlovid prescriptions. Was 1/week during summer, now 4-5 prescriptions/day. Also they have updated Moderna vaccines in fridge now, jut not allowed to release until Oct 10. #Covid19BC

🚨 VCH Staff Memo on Masks & Vaccines This evening, Dr. Daly sent this "respiratory illness season" memo to VCH staff. It provides details on the new mask requirements announced by Dr. Henry yesterday. It also provides some information on Covid and Influenza vaccines.
Metro Vancouver wastewater COVID surveillance data was published September 29. The most recent test was September 25. @COVIDPoops19
B.C. Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry has announced “masks are mandatory in health-care settings,” starting Oct. 3 for healthcare workers, visitors, and volunteers. vancouver.citynews.ca/2023/09/28/bc-…
The memo reads “Pts, clients, & residents will mask when directed by a health care worker or based on personal choice.” Which really isn’t much different from what we have now & will still lead to people refusing to 😷 when asked. As has been happening since mandates were dropped

Well, good to see this bit about Dr. Henry in the @nationalpost. The entire country is incredulous now

You are making progress but this messaging that there are 700 new family doctors is just not true. Not even close. Family doctors have moved to a new payment model to practice family medicine but they’ve come from hospital work, walk in clinics, etc. It’s great we have more…
➡️ Premier @Dave_Eby’s plan to attract more family physicians to B.C. is already yielding results! ➡️ Over 700 new family doctors in the first year. ➡️ More work coming! The journey toward a high-performing primary care system is just beginning. 👇🏻

It doesn't seem great that the organization charged with controlling disease employs a person who claims that kids don't spread disease and that they aren't at risk from it, either. Dr. Jennifer Grant seems to be in the wrong profession.
Imagine trying to make the case that schools should never close during public health emergencies, and thinking that data from polio and ebola outbreaks will help your argument. Here's Dr. Jennifer Grant, who's currently employed by the @CDCofBC, doing just that. Unreal.
Just a PSA for all you non Canadians skiing at whistler from a local orthopedic surgeon: get travellers insurance! Health care is free here for tax payers. It’s $$$$$ if you break your femur and need surgery!
Update on sister in @Fraserhealth hospital. She is doing much better and finally off oxygen. With antibiotics, two SARSCovid2 medications - still very weak. This acute stage is not mild even with all protective vaccines. I pray she will have no longterm damage from SARSCovid2.

Hòsties hòsties hòsties! 🐧😆.
@GreaterfoolVan @WestcoastBCLife (She was asking about how to get -tested- for this strain... not how to "get" it, ie. how it is transmitted... The testing resources might be useful if it is suspected?)
SARSCovid2 destroys immune systems. 4th child dead within the month in BC. “High levels of streptococcal bacteria infections continue in B.C. children” globalnews.ca/news/10235773/…
And members of school boards will hide behind the statement: "we are following public health guidance." As if it absolved them of their duty to protect students and their families along with educators and school staff.
Can’t believe I have to say this. The high student illness absence rates are not due to the negligence of students or parents, they are due to the negligence of schools in not protecting their students.
Thank you for your prayers, comments, support. I just called again and she has now been in ER for 17.5 hours. She is admitted to the hospital but there are no beds to place her.
Older sister just tested positive for Covid this week - went to Burnaby General at 3pm via ambulance due to breathing issues. I just phoned the switchboard at 11pm to see if she has been admitted and found out she is still in ER! 8 hours! She has developed pneumonia - on oxygen.
Last week Dr. Bonnie Henry was reading out infection stats like she's talking about sales numbers on an investor call. "So we're up 10% over the year!"
