Since British Columbia is following the UK model, why not get ahead of the curve for once? #BringMasksBack Infectious, communicable disease doesn’t stay in one place. Cold weather, gatherings, travel = spread #Measles #Flu #H3N2 #H5N1 #Covid19

Happening in Canada too, but public health and politicians want to pretend the pandemic is in the rear view mirror…Meanwhile, British Columbia has had over 20,000 hrs. of ER closures - some due to sick healthcare workers. #BringMasksBack

Not one single thing about the elephant in the room…IT’S COVID! Masks would be a useful tool taking pressure off ERs …instead, this article talks about retention, another critical factor but not the whole big picture…we’re in a massive Covid wave right now! #BringMasksBack

This is a disaster. @adriandix How can you stand up at a podium, declare #BonnieHenry “outstanding”, brag about HCWs that you poached - anyone seen any numbers correlating this - while BC literally drowns in C19? Your arrogance is astounding. Ego…even more so. #BringMasksBack

Urgent calls as hospitals in @VanIslandHealth are desperately short-staffed and at risk of closures. Or is it the @bcndp and @adriandix who are at risk of looking bad? 🤔

Vor einem #Krankenhaus in #Spanien. Im Januar 2024. Was sieht man? #maskenpflicht. Und, Potzblitz, die Menschen halten sich auch daran. Einfach so. Aus Rücksicht und Vorsicht.

These delays don’t just affect @BCFerries, they affect many travelling for medical appointments, work, tourists,
#PreciousEconomy. Instead of the constant battle to find healthy workers, how about trying a simple fix…#BringMasksBack #CleanTheAir…It’s shouldn’t be this hard. 🤷♀️

#ServiceNotice #QofCumberland departed 1 hour and 4 minutes behind schedule for the 5:00 am sailing from #SwartzBay to #LyallHarbour due to an earlier staffing shortage which has since been resolved.

#BringMasksBack This is so ridiculous at this point of the pandemic…four years in. A simple fix that could help end worker shortages…but, do continue with this stupidity as we move into flu and RSV season as well! 🤦♀️#CantFixStupid

How’s that economy going, Dave? Think this won’t have a major ripple effect on BC tourism/business? How many ppl will be further sickened or delayed in their almost nonexistent medical care because of these ongoing situations? Enough! Get it together! #BringMasksBack @Dave_Eby

Another rough day on the seas for BC Ferries. From Victoria to Vancouver they are now booking the 9 PM sailing. That is a SEVEN SAILING WAIT for those without reservation. #bcpoli

This is unsustainable. Burning through employees because of a highly infectious disease and lack of management isn’t working…four years in and entering a fifth…time to figure it out! #BringMasksBack, you potatoes!

Heading into fall & winter, essential services like BC Ferries will face even larger staffing shortages & cancelled sailings. Those needing access to medical care are being impacted most. When will @dave_eby put the lives of BCians first? #BringMasksBack

What is 'generate evidence for COVID-19 prevention & control'?! Why aren't you using plain language to tell govs to reintroduce basic public health protective measures??!!

Same needs to happen in Canada. Instead, Govts will continue to let economies, supply chains, infrastructure, healthcare circle the drain. World banks keep warning of worker shortages due to Long Covid. But, will they listen? No. Arrogance, ego, greed prevail! #BringMasksBack

⚠️The experiment in the UK to remove masks in healthcare failed⚠️
Doctor's associations in the UK are asking for the return of masks and an upgrade to respirators of higher quality: ffp2 /N95 .
🚩Let this be a warning to the rest of the world.

While *everyone* is at risk of severe disease with #SARS2, it's great to have celebrities wisely continue to #WearAMask and be loud about it. They know what's up.

There’s a simple medical intervention that could help so that BC hospitals aren’t on the brink of collapse. Politics should never play into the hands of healthcare, but here we are. #BringMasksBack #WearAMask @bcndp #WakeUp #KillingPeopleAndEconomyAllAtOnce #Unsustainable

As president of @DoctorsOfBC, I am privileged to travel to urban communities like Langley and Surrey, to larger rural communities like Fort St John and Dawson Creek, as well as small rural places like Keremeos and Port Hardy/Port McNeill, where this is ALL unequivocally true!
Our emergency departments (EDs) are overrun when our hospitals are overrun. Our EDs are overrun when primary care is overrun. Our EDs are overrun when our specialist services are overrun. Our EDs as overrun when our LTCs are full.
We, as @DoctorsOfBC, alongside our Health Authority and Ministry partners need to do be ALL IN to make this better, for patients, physicians and the Emergency Departments across this province.
