Description: POP BC Briefing #7: Omicron in BC – PoP Response Panel to Government Press Conferences December 31, 2021 Omicron has sent case numbers to their highest levels yet, even with limited testing. There are many issues to be addressed, including: Omicron – How mild is it? Can we live with it? N95 masks for healthcare workers, including at vaccination clinics – why is this important? BC Third Dose roll out – Let’s talk intervals since last vaccine and, who should be prioritized? Is it ethical to allow healthcare workers to work while sick? Testing in BC – update on the ongoing saga of RATs (rapid antigen tests) – is usage for diagnosis an effective strategy? What are other ways to manage Omicron spread and avoid “inevitable” infection? Schools – are the “Enhanced Safety Measures” enough for Omicron? Reaction to announcements and comments made during the December 31 COVID-19 update Protect our Province BC hosted a panel of steering committee members to discuss and provide a response to Government and Public Health’s most recent COVID-19 updates from this week, those held on December 29 and 31.

What does this mean for our children, to let COVID-19 spread through their population, when only 40% of 5 to 11 year-olds have received just one dose of vaccine, and all children under 5 are unvaccinated?

Title: Lack of ethics: How Canada is failing with COVID-19 | YouTube | Protect Our Province BC

URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymNLXZVo1Os

Description: Join Canadian researcher and author Jon Parsons in a discussion with Protect our Province BC member Dr. Amy Tan about how Canada’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic amounts to a failure of ethical action. The pandemic has brought issues with Canada’s governing systems and cultural identity into full view: the lack of collective care and social solidarity as a country has led to responses and decisions that have prioritized the privileged and elite while disproportionately harming multiple communities, including the elderly, racialized, homeless, disabled, medically vulnerable, front line workers, and more. Jon Parsons has written about these issues in his recently released book, “COVID-19 and Ethics in Canada: The Failure of Common Decency”. He will discuss the reasons behind Canada’s poor response, what this means for Canada as a whole, how this is resulting in wider social unrest, why this is of major concern for Canadians, and what we need to learn from this to be able to handle the key issues of the future, including climate change, Truth and Reconciliation and systemic racism.
