COVID-19: Vancouver Island, BC (Central & North)

Collected by: Vancouver Island University

Archived since: Mar, 2020

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. Contact us at research.help@viu.ca with questions or for more information about content included in the Web Archive. [Working description 2021 April 6]

Description: Jens von Bergmann on Twitter: "BC is finally publishing useful VOC screening data, time to take a look at the first report. Well, not really data, it's two graphs, which my 11yo scraped the data from in exchange for a fancy ice cream. But better than nothing, and now has HA level data! http://bccdc.ca/Health-Info-Site/Documents/VoC/VoC_weekly_04302021.pdf"

Description: Jens von Bergmann on Twitter: "Figure 2 shows us how VOCs split into B.1.1.7 and P.1 (B.1.351 does not really do much). At least in theory. In practice, the data from Figure 2 is inconsistent with Figure 1 as @eresc79 has already pointed out. Plotting VOC share on same graph shows the huge discrepancy."

Description: Jens von Bergmann on Twitter: "Figure 1 lets us better understand how VOCs have grown regionally. Northern still has growth baked in, the other regions are pretty much maxed out and now all well over 80% VOC share. Also interesting that recent measure may have dampened the VOC growth rate advantage."

Description: Jens von Bergmann on Twitter: "Not sure what to make of this, I assumption is that something is wrong with Figure 2. Report comes with a helpful explainer graphs how screening and sequencing are done. Overall it strikes me as a great strategy for where we were 3 months ago, going forward I am not sure it is."
