Dad got #covid this summer with my cousin and sister because they all just wanted a British family birthday here in #BC for his 80th.
We had been booked to join them up coast but found out two days prior to leaving. We called off the trip with several folks covid sick at the house we were planning to stay.
It was then we discovered #bcferries no longer refunds for covid cancellations, as to them the pandemic is over. We had to pay to drop our reservation days from our trip, knowing the ferry we had reserved would only be 75% full.
For #BritishColumbia businesses like #bcferries, ignoring the pandemic is just an extra cash grab. Book another ferry now, pay us 20 bucks or go get sick. They ultimately profited off our loss.
#LetErRip #NewDeathParty, #NoDataParty #BCndp, #BCmedia, #bonniehenry and #adriandix are the pack of unrepentant #GBD spiders who’ve spun this covid web of deception lulling our population into #complacency and #ableism.
Profit over kindness is what they’ve successfully preached.
We must vote every one of these anti mask, anti health covid #minimizers out. We must demand a true independent inquiry of this #bcndp and their #GreatBarrington #Eugenics #LetErRip #surrender to #covid19bc.
#BCndp needs to #FireBonnieHenry and attempt to restore trust in #BCHealth. British Columbia deserves true health leadership, not more #lies and #propaganda from a longtime corrupt govt shill.

Never forget #BonnieHenry’s many lies to the people of #BC, knowingly sending kids & teachers unprotected to forcibly expose them to a neurotropic virus which could lead to permanent disability and even death. #COVID #bcpoli #bchealth #UnsafeSeptember https://www.capitaldaily.ca/news/henry-stanwick-covid-school-exposures-emails

Sarah Moser finds it infuriating that three weeks after her 75-year-old father #TestedPositive for #COVID19, he continues to #suffer because he was #denied an #antiviral drug that could have eased his symptoms.
#Paxlovid is intended for adults with mild to moderate COVID-19 at #HighRisk of #hospitalization or #death . The 5 day course is supposed to stop the #virus from multiplying, allowing #patients to #recover faster.

Questioning & analyzing where #BC CMOH Bonnie Henry’s claims (propagated by her adherents) depart from evidence about the #pandemic, #masks & #SARSCoV2 is found in rigorous academic analyses; what it’s *not* is twitter trolling.

“For nurses trained abroad, Eby said the province plans to spend $1.3 million to streamline the licensing process. He said the goal is to reduce the registration waiting period from the current three years to between four and nine months. We want to help applicants to gain registration in the right nursing role as quickly as possible ... and without compromising public safety," #bchealth #nursing https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/bc-nurses-training-international-support-1.6708109
