Description: Perhaps my question yesterday was not straightforward enough. Today I got straight to the point: does the Minister of Health Adrian Dix acknowledge that COVID-19 is airborne? No answer - just spin. It is astonishing that what should be a simple question to answer leads to a contortionist act from our government. The WHO, Canada Health, and the international scientific community all agree that COVID-19 is airborne. It is crucial for this gov’t to recognize that COVID-19 is airborne because that creates a guiding point for decision making and measuring success. Ensuring every British Columbian has access to N95s becomes a priority. Acknowledging COVID-19 airborne means there is no excuse to not invest in better ventilation and HEPA filters in schools and healthcare settings. It sends a direct message to all health authorities to implement the necessary policies to combat airborne transmission. The COVID-19 pandemic is not over. Government needs to focus on protections for people. Clear information, reliable data, N95s, rapid tests, ventilation, filtration of indoor air.

Description: There's been a great deal of frustration among some healthcare workers and educators over the B.C. government's approach to COVID-19. At the centre of this has been the reluctance of health authorities to accept that COVID-19 is mainly transmitted by the airborne route.

Description: As K-12 students are about to return to classrooms and thousands of university students move into dormitories, there are growing fears of a new wave of COVID-19 because of the lack of a provincewide indoor mask mandate and the lack of public education about airborne transmission. With that in mind, I'm sharing the results of three studies published this year in peer-reviewed journals.

Rather, it was mostly about the fact that she had the temerity to criticize a provincial public health officer who's paid a very high salary to save lives by offering the best advice based on science.
