Description: Deputy Minister of Health Stephen Brown and Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry delivered a pandemic update to BC Green Party staff on the same day Ernst and Young completed a $197,000 review of long term care. But the party’s leader said officials made no mention of the Oct. 22 report, which was kept secret until this week — three months after the NDP won the Oct. 24 snap election.

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "Today the @bcndp announced they’re doing a review of their COVID-19 response from 2020-2022. While it is good to see proactive action from this government the terms make it clear this is not about trust-building and accountability but rather a communication exercise. 1/ #bcpoli / I have been advocating for transparency on how decisions are made from the very beginning of this pandemic. This review is a crucial step in becoming more resilient, but it hinges on how well it is done. 2/ / This “independent review” won’t analyze policy decisions made by the provincial health officer, the government, or anything about economic recovery. It will be done by three former heads of the BC public service, as appointed by the Deputy Premier. 3/3"

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "Today I asked Premier @jjhorgan what, in a pandemic, his government owes to the people and those who live with them who are medically vulnerable or immunocompromised? The Minister of Health answered instead. 1/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC #COVID19 / I ask this because @humanrights4bc sent a letter to the PHO arguing that the mask mandate should remain. The letter states, “Lifting the mask mandate will do disproportionate harm to those who are already marginalized”. 2/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC https://bchumanrights.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022.03.16-Letter-to-Bonnie-Henry-End-of-Mask-Mandate.pdf / . @jjhorgan has tasked his gov't with tackling systemic discrimination – it is in the mandate letter of the Minister of Health. And yet, our Human Rights Commissioner said that the sudden removal of the mask mandate will have profound effects on vulnerable people in BC. 3/ #bpcoli / “[…] the mask mandate is not about eliminating risk; it is about sharing the risk burden across society rather than transferring it to a marginalized or medically vulnerable minority.” 4/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / . @humanrights4BC is saying that the decision from this government to remove the mask mandate is harming the most vulnerable in our province. I asked the Premier for his response to the Human Rights Commissioner? There wasn't any. 5/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / . @AdrianDix stood both times and waived their responsibility to British Columbians by putting it all on Dr. Henry. He went on to oppose the view of the Human Rights Commissioner that the decisions from this government are harming vulnerable people in BC. 6/6 #bcpoli #COVID19BC"

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "In what was their final #COVID19 briefing for the foreseeable future our PHO and government have failed to educate British Columbians on the risks of #LongCOVID, of the airborne spread of this virus, and of the benefits of well-fitting & high-quality masks. 1/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / This is a failure to provide essential information to the public, at a time when this government has transferred all responsibility to individuals to try to keep themselves and others safe from #COVID19 infection. 2/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / In P.E.I & Quebec mask mandates have been extended until the end of the month in order to manage rising cases. 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/"

Our classrooms aren't prepared because @bcndp have not been realistic about the state of COVID. 3/ #bcpoli / The public have been told a different story for two years. The public are owed a full, honest explanation of this discrepancy. 4/4 #bcpoli"

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "Today I asked @AdrianDix to explain how we can trust his or the PHO’s word after this @CapitalDailyVic & @bbybeacon story. BCers have been misled about #COVID19 transmissions in schools. There needs to be accountability. 1/ #bcpoli #bced #COVID19BC / Before a press conference in 2020, Dr Henry wrote to staff “We need to be able to give some data that supports what we keep saying - transmission in schools is low,” 2/ #bcpoli #bced #COVID19BC / The PHO and this government were trying to find data to support the narrative that Covid was not spreading among children in schools. At the same time as telling teachers and parents that the reality they were experiencing was false. 3/ #bcpoli #bced #COVID19BC / Even more damning is the study co-authored by Dr Henry from that same time period found that students were responsible for close to half of all COVID transmission in communities. 4/ #bcpoli #COVID19BC / This study, co-authored by the PHO found that COVID spread among kids was 92 times higher than what this government was reporting. 5/ #bcpoli #bced #COVID19BC / . @AdrianDix responded by saying that they’ve done a fantastic job and that the story is not worthy of a question. Accountability to the public is not something the @bcndp values. 6/6 #bcpoli #bced #COVID19BC"

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.

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.
