Chronic health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on school workers: a cross-sectional post-pandemic analysis 🔥Large Canadian study (Vancouver metropolitan area, representing 186 elementary and secondary schools in total). ‼️"Overall, 31.1% staff reported new-onset chronic symptoms." ➡️"The pandemic had major health impacts on school workers." ➡️"To our knowledge, this study is among the first to concurrently quantify a broad range of chronic physical and mental health impacts, highlighting the need for further research and targeted health programmes to address this significant burden." 😡And again, they said schools were safe……FORGET IT! #CleanAir bmjopen.bmj.com/content/15/7/e…
What was trying to kill us in 2024, and how was it stopped? 22 Public Health Accomplishments in 2024! I couldn’t be more proud to be in public health. We continue to accomplish so much with so little, and the work is often invisible. Here’s to 2025. Happy New Year!
12/ I pulled more $bced absence data from FOIs (this should be public dashboard, ffs). Top 2 lines are Fall 2022 and Fall 2023. The kids are NOT ok. There is ZERO EVIDENCE of any 'hybrid immunity'. And comparing 2023 to 2022, there is ZERO evidence of 'immunity debt'. #bcpoli
💥"The BC Government does not have any restrictions against the use of portable HEPA filter units in any regularly occupied classrooms, regardless of whether the classroom does or does not have mechanical ventilation systems." 💥 Will post more later 🍿 #bced @VanDPAC @bctf
A must-read from @pjavidan "Children have been the shock absorbers of the COVID-19 pandemic. Forcing families to choose between biosecurity & education is one of the great injustices of our time, violating children’s fundamental human rights to life, health, safety, & education."
@LauraMiers Now wait a sec…I may be willing to put my lawyer hat back on for this. Becuz a waiver is a form of contract & it is facially invalid if not 1) reciprocal and 2) made w/informed consent. No reasonable person (legal test) would consent to a fatal virus in exchange for X purchase🤔

I pulled out just ages 0-44 (no 0-19 is available). Then, I just looked at 2019 baseline and 2022 and 2023, since the 'blessing' of Omicron. And 😱😱😱 #COVID #SARSCoV2 #COVIDisNotOver #MasksWork #ExcessDeaths #cdnpoli #publichealth @GovCanHealth @bcndp
