Description: Cases of COVID-19 have climbed on Vancouver Island in recent weeks, and so has the rate of testing. What should you expect if you need to get tested? Last month two of The Discourse’s reporters went in for a test: Shalu Mehta and I. We want to share our experiences as well as other resources that we hope will help others through this process.

Description: Hey, hey, down the street on Twitter: "I want to talk a bit about hospital capacity on VI ⬇️ Cowichan General is the only hospital between Victoria and Nanaimo> roughly a 1 hr drive in either direction. There is a large population of seniors and complex medical needs. 2/ This little community hospital runs at max capacity most of the year. With only 4* pediatric/surgical/medical beds, it’s easy to see that * any surge in the community will be a massive problem. This part of the island has completely abysmal mask usage. 10% at best. 3/ Now think about some recent events pertaining to VI: sold out ferries, increased tourism, LTC outbreaks, local stores and restaurants shut ‘due to staffing’, 1500 locals marching in Chemainus 4/ There is also a subset of anti maskers/vaxxers that work/own businesses in the downtown core. These super responsible🤦♀️ folks are constantly putting vulnerable people at high risk AND THERE ARE NO BEDS available most days. 5/ Serious illness, including specialist care is shunted off to Victoria… which has a *massive* number of seniors, cancer patients and young kids. To not have any mitigation’s in place right now will undoubtedly cause a healthcare collapse of epic proportions on VI. / @SoniaFurstenau is likely well aware of the implications. No one who has lived here for any length of time could be unaware! There are no doctors taking patients, 1 testing site open 3 hours per day with appointments required. Save our community. Save our island 😭"
