Description:

In March 2020 the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition (CWAC) stated: "The deadly flu outbreak of 1918-19 is often called the ‘forgotten pandemic.’ Our responsibility now is to ensure the lessons of COVID-19 are not forgotten. Our collective efforts to capture and preserve the essential online elements of this unprecedented event are critical." (CARL-ABRC). The COVID-19: Vancouver Island, BC (Central & North) Web Archive reflects community experiences and responses to the pandemic in the region served by Vancouver Island University, documenting and supporting diverse aspects of scholarly inquiry, creativity, and community life. The Web Archive is intended to provide a body of information that will support scholarship, creativity, and study. Information rights related to web archiving include considerations of copyright and fair dealing, and of individual and community privacy. The following are among principles and resources that guide web archiving decisions: Ethics of care, for example in VIU Library’s Pledge to our user communities; OCAP® principles, and awareness of relationality and accountability to Indigenous communities, and potential impacts related to web archiving; Good practice and expert advice, emerging and accessed through communities of practice, e.g. the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition (CWAC); and VIU Library, Evolution of Physical Collections: 2017-2021 VIU Library, Special Collections Guidelines (Under review 2020). Web archives are informed by available capture technologies and also by affordances of the content source; not all websites can be successfully crawled or rendered, and quality of archived versions varies. This project is supported by VIU's Special Funding for COVID-19 research projects and carried out in coordination with the University of Victoria’s COVID-19 Collection and the Canadian Web Archiving Coalition.

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "The school year is right around the corner, but our #COVID19 plans are outdated. The #DeltaVariant has taken over - and it is more transmissible. This puts unvaccinated kids at risk, as we saw with the 150 kids <10 yrs old who tested positive in June and July. 1/ #bcpoli / A US report found that w/o masks, 70% of a classroom could contract the #DeltaVariant. As it stands, kids will not be adequately protected in schools - no vaccines for those under 12, no masks, even physical distancing of 2 m is no longer recommended. 2/ #bcpoli / It is important to prepare for a safe return and set realistic expectations in classrooms, but this gov’t needs to show they are continuing to take the risks of #LongCOVID seriously for unvaccinated children. 3/ #bcpoli / We need smaller class sizes & proper distancing, enhanced ventilation, mandatory masking, & contact tracing. All of this needs to be in place before children and teachers return to schools in September. 4/4 #bcpoli"

Title: [Comments on BC after two years of COVID-19]

URL: https://twitter.com/SoniaFurstenau/status/1502034738906763288/

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "It has been a long 2 years for British Columbians. Many people are eager for the pandemic to be over, and others are still anxious about opening up. 1/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / I am deeply concerned that without a plan for the future and clear information on why we’re making decisions, removing these measures will create more confusion, allow for greater transmission of COVID, and risk distrust in government. 2/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / Learning to live with this virus should not mean pretending it is over; it should mean that we keep simple, universal basic protections in places where they keep us safe and provide a predictable plan that we can work towards and anticipate. 3/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / We should be providing free N95 masks to all who want one, installing filtration in schools & public settings, subsidizing HEPA filters for other settings, and making rapid tests widely and freely available. We should be protecting everyone from the risk of #LongCovid. 4/ #bcpoli / Removing masking entirely sends a signal that the pandemic is over. Yesterday we had 14 deaths, a new variant is circulating around the world, and many epidemiologists and our provincial health officer have suggested we could see a fifth wave this year. 5/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / We should have kept masks in place for essential services like public transit and other high-transmission settings with low ventilation. This would protect our most vulnerable, while opening up elective activities for people who are comfortable. 6/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / British Columbians deserve the same predictability and clarity they received last summer with the re-opening plan. Without a plan and tools in place, we risk repeating the damaging cycle of imposing and removing mandates. 7/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / Rebuilding and maintaining trust should be this government’s top priority. This government’s lack of transparency over the past year and failure to explain their decisions has resulted in an erosion of our collective sense of responsibility to each other. 8/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / Without clear guidelines for imposing or rescinding mandates, British Columbians will only grow more disenfranchised. 9/9 #bcpoli #COVID19BC"

It’s clear that the B.A.2 variant has taken over in BC, and yet we continue to act as though we're somehow going to avoid the impacts we’re seeing elsewhere. 3/ #bcpoli / This government is desperate to maintain its narrative around its management of this pandemic, and is doing so by limiting testing, monitoring, and reporting. They have closed down community monitoring at the beginning of a sixth wave. 4/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC #COVID19 / We've seen data transparency & public guidance be the focus of a responsible public health body, like in Peterborough. It's not an impossible task for a gov't to provide clear guidance to the public on the level of risk they are at. 5/5 #bcpoli #COVID19BC https://peterboroughpublichealth.ca/covid-19-risk-index/"

I didn’t really get an answer to any of the Qs. 1/ #bcpoli Instead he noted other figures, programs gov’t is funding and reiterating the seriousness of the virus. This misses the point as to why collecting #LongCovid data is so important - because it allows us to create better policy and increases trust in gov’t decision making. 2/ If you want to read the full thread on today's Question Period or the rest of the work we do in the House follow the @bcgreencaucus ! 3/3 #bcpoli #COVID19 #LongCovid"
