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.

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "Access to safe education, and protecting our most vulnerable, should be a top govt priority. I am disappointed by the updated guidelines for preventing COVID-19 transmission in BC schools. 1/ #bcpoli / In year 3 of returning to school in a pandemic, we know better than to rely on vaccines and staying home when sick. As @a_longhurst reported, “BC’s sole reliance on vaccines is not working to prevent constant waves of (re)infection, hospitalizations and Long COVID”. 2/ #bcpoli / We know that masking, standardized ventilation and filtration, testing & vaccines contribute to better protection for all. 3/ #bcpoli / The @bcndp says they've spent $166 million upgrading ventilation in schools, but they haven’t shared which have had upgrades and which haven’t. More people in BC have died from COVID-19 in 2022 than ever before. We must recognize our reality and adapt to it. 4/4 #bcpoli"

Description: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "High numbers of children and teachers are missing schoo"We have all the tools to change the trajectory of this horrible situation. The only missing ingredient is courage from our leaders to be transparent about the current situation and mandate the changes that are necessary to prevent more illness and death." @SKGandhiMD #bcpoli 6/6" because they are sick. Children's wards and ERs are overwhelmed and operations for children and infants are being cancelled. #bcpoli 1/ / We need public health guidance on how to reduce transmission of the viruses that are circulating in BC. Instead, the @bcndp has quietly removed isolation requirements for people with COVID-19, reduced testing & reporting, and has given inadequate guidance on masking. 2/ / The independent review of BC's pandemic response released on Friday highlights that the @bcndp ’s repeated failure to communicate public health guidance left BCers distrustful and uncooperative with public health measures. 3/ / Where are the organized efforts of the @bcndp to keep people healthy? Vaccines are one tool, but given the conditions we are seeing right now, more needs to be done to prevent illness, especially in children. #bcpoli #healthcare 4/ / Ventilation, testing & publicly reporting data, wearing masks in high-risk public settings like classrooms, on transit, and in grocery stores - these can help reduce the risk of transmission but have received little investment by the @bcndp . 5/ /

So looking like the ‘not infectious 5 days’ info isn’t accurate —what a surprise 🙄 / Now think of how many double vaxxed are going on official #BC #PHO advice they only have to quarantine for 5 days without test/confirmation they are no longer infectious? / Youngest tried to joke when I tested him for ‘just the sniffles’ then he was positive. Wasn’t so funny then or as the rest of us got it…🙄"

Title: "The Omicron variant has changed the pandemic." | British Columbia Teachers' Federation

URL: https://twitter.com/bctf/status/1474075724357111848/

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: Sonia Furstenau on Twitter: "This chapter of the pandemic has me the most worried. When we should be treating this pandemic and the Delta variant with the utmost seriousness, we are seeing increasing cases in schools, lack of support for unhoused people w/ COVID, and increasing community division. 1/ #bcpoli / Some will not get vaccinated, & we can’t ignore them. We have to protect them & their communities w strong public health measures like masks, ventilation, filtration, & effective contact tracing. We need better communications & transparency to bring them in, not shut them out. 2/ / We need masks for K-3 students, filtration and ventilation, and resources available to learn remotely whenever requested. COVID is already in our schools and spreading amongst our kids, it is not too late to prevent further transmission. 3/ #bcpoli / Lastly, we need to consider implementing an independent COVID-19 advisory panel that acts as a backstop for government data to increase credibility and trust. This gov’t has been burdened for 18 months, & this could support their hard work. 4/ #bcpoli"
