Health officials in B.C. have taken the proactive step of reinstituting mask mandates at health care settings throughout the province as cases of flu, COVID-19 and other respiratory illnesses rise
Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said Thursday that masks are mandatory for all health care workers, volunteers and visitors in patient-care areas starting Oct. 3 to protect those who are most vulnerable.
Studies have shown that as much as 80 per cent of the province’s population has been infected by the virus at least once, creating some levels of immunity, particularly when combined with the vaccination. Across the border in Alberta, Premier Danielle Smith and Health Minister Adriana LaGrange gave less than a full-throated push for the COVID-19 vaccine.“Look, I’m a healthy person, I tend to take care of my immune system,” she said at a news conference to update Albertans on the E. coli situation in Calgary.“I’m very healthy as well. I have a very healthy immune system. And you know what? I also believe that this is a personal decision for individuals to make.
