Description: BCTF on Twitter: "The Omicron variant has changed the pandemic. It's more transmissible and has a shorter incubation. Safety measures in #bced schools must change too. Thousands of students remain unvaccinated and too many workers are waiting for boosters. The #bcpoli government must act. 1/6 / When #bced schools come back in January, teachers, support staff, and students need the employers (school districts) and #bcpoli government officials to step up and protect them and all the people we go home to. Here some actions they can take: 2/6 / 1. Provide free N95 masks to those who need or want them. 2. Ensure districts and school admin are enforcing mask-wearing. 3. Implement a rapid testing regime for students and staff. 4. Allow district officials to share info on exposures and clusters. #bced #bcpoli 3/6 / 5. Limit the size of school gatherings and move all meetings to virtual. 6. Revise the daily health assessment to recognize Omicron's symptoms. 7. Stagger start, lunch, recess and end times 8. Ramp up testing and vaccinations during the winter break. #bced #bcpoli 4/6 / #BCed districts also need to address the gaps in air ventilation. There are still many school sites where MERV-13’s are not in place. Opening windows is not a real option in parts of the province that face bitter cold. #bcpoli 5/6 / Our reps at the provincial and local offices have been meeting and communicating with government and district officials throughout the week. If keeping #bced schools open is the goal, then they need to do much more and communicate it clearly before the New Year. #bcpoli 6/6"

Description: BCTF on Twitter: "We are pleased to hear that #BCpoli has ordered a phased reopening of #BCed schools to allow for planning and implementation of new safety measures, including staggered start times, reduced density, and virtual meetings. 1/4 / It was also great to hear the Minister reiterate the importance of mask compliance, as that is something we’ve heard has been a significant issue in many #BCed districts. 2/4 / Many questions remain for #bcpoli, including what a rapid testing strategy will look like, as well as how #BCed public notification of exposures and clusters will change in light of the new variant. 3/4 / We were disappointed that the announcement offered no indication that boosters will be fast-tracked for #BCed, nor did Minister Whiteside commit to making N95 masks available in schools or proactively addressing the outstanding ventilation concerns in many schools. #bcpoli 4/4"

Description: BCTF on Twitter: "The lifting of the #bcpoli mask mandate should have been postponed by one week until all #bced school districts were on spring break. The uneven approach between life outside school and inside classrooms will cause disruptions and add stress to teachers, support staff, and admin. / When #bced schools return after spring break, we need: - Free N95s for all staff and students who need or want them. - Robust campaigns to increase vaccine rates in children. - Ongoing improvements to ventilation. - Trauma-informed support for students and staff. #bcpoli"

Description: Internal emails show BC public health leaders, including provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry, had concerns about the quality of COVID-19 transmission data collected in schools—and that those concerns persisted in private, months after officials had started making claims to the media and the public on a regular basis that the risk of transmission in schools was very low.
