SecondStreet.org analyzed Google reviews for 83 major hospitals across the country. The average rating is abysmal, and the #1 complaint across the board? Waiting. When patients are treated like numbers in a government monopoly, service suffers. You deserve better than a two-star experience for your health care.

I recently talked to Protection Services Officer (PS0) working in our BC hospitals. They were talking about confiscating knives and occasionally guns daily and not having adequate personal protective equipment. That is the reality of our hopitals today and we got here under this NDP government watch. It's no surprise that 98.2% of nurses voted in favour of strike action. The province needs to get back to the table to negotiate in good faith with our nurses who are the backbone of our medical system There are over 4,500 nursing positions that are not filled leading to more ER closures, patient and staff safety issues and burnout. We need much better workplace safety measures, adequate nurse to patient ratios and fair compensation. Its not just about recruiting more nurses but retaining them as well.

China’s trawlers are electrocuting the Persian Gulf to death. Their industrial scale Pulse fishing kills everything in the water, leaving a dead ocean. They need to be stopped before the ocean is completely lifeless.

@BarryHunt008 @Mags00021130 💯…like Dr. Henry quarantining hantavirus exposed ppl on Vancouver Island, when the hospital charged with care, is Surrey Memorial Hospital on the mainland. It’s an hour prep at min. & medivac (plane or helicopter) ride for emergency care. It doesn’t make sense.

MVK is 100% wrong 😑 Again And she's broadcasting dangerous misinformation To the world Again And confidently so Again Misinformation that will lead to serious harm This is a pattern of behaviour that should be immediately disqualifying for a role in Public Health
Lara - Covid is Airborne@fillthewhole

Here’s Maria from the WHO last Thursday on GMB. Kate explicitly asks if Hantavirus is airborne … have a listen. We’ve not seen her back on GMB since.

I’d like to see Canadian journalists asking more of officials here about tracing efforts and isolation for contacts of the four who’ve been back several weeks. Also about revisiting asymptomatic testing given the U.S. asymptomatic case. And why we’re cutting quarantine time.
Outbreak Updates@outbreakupdates

France just escalated again. Strict hospital isolation for all French MV Hondius contacts 8 additional airline contacts now under reinforced hospital quarantine Daily interministerial crisis meetings at Matignon One French patient remains in ICU

British Columbians are tired of being used as test subjects in the event of dangerous and deadly epidemics. This should not even be considered as good public health guidance. When hubris paves way, the public pays…with their lives.
Dr. Lyne Filiatrault@DrFiliatrault

BC public health still has not admitted that SARS-CoV-2 is #airborne and has failed to appreciate #asymptomatic spread of Covid. This will be a test. Let's see how it does with a the risk of ANDV Hantavirus infections. #bcpoli cdn.jwplayer.com/previews/uZLLK…

Agree with @ashishkjha — taking a loose approach to quarantine is the wrong move. Personally I favor the approach Spain is taking with full quarantine handled in the country’s military hospital to minimize any chance of onward spread for 42 days. Framing this as “low risk” doesn’t account for the fact that risk changes big time if quarantine isn’t done effectively
Ashish K. Jha@ashishkjha

There is growing evidence from the ship that you probably don't need "prolonged close" contact to spread the virus. And the implications here are pretty clear If we are serious about ending this outbreak, all the passengers should undergo a full quarantine away from others

As we start to deal with hantavirus, a cautionary tale—one of the key global health figures (WHO lead) who insisted Covid wasn't truly airborne has quietly removed that tweet without explanation. And now BC public health figures are admitting that too, almost as asides.
Maarten De Cock@mdc_martinus

After 6 years, @mvankerkhove has quietly deleted her tweet stating #COVID19 was “NOT airborne” (22/3/2020). No explanation. No rectification. No public erratum. Transparency and accountability are essential for trust in public health. You don’t learn lessons by erasing them.

Okay. This is today's version 2. Hopefully, the typos are corrected and additions made. I greatly appreciate the feedback - I put it out in a rush. Sorry about that. I moved some text to a sidebar to allow a little breathing room.
