Advocacy opportunity 📣 A human rights complaint is in progress against Fraser Health Authority, regarding a policy banning patients and visitors from wearing N95 masks 😬

This is a class complaint, meaning it’s on behalf of a group/class of people: in this case, those at higher risk for severe COVID-19.

If you fall into that group, and were asked to remove your N95 in favour of a surgical mask at a Fraser Health facility when accessing care in 2021-22, please reach out to lenapatsa on Twitter or BlueSky, or email amoore[at]clasbc.net. Your support is CRITICAL to move this complaint to the next stage.

And be sure to share widely to reach folks who were affected!

Advocacy opportunity 📣 Safety survey on BC arts & entertainment (like live events, venues & more), open until Feb 28. You can participate anonymously, or leave your name and email to enter a $100 gift card draw: surveymonkey.com/r/LMDCF52

Note the survey starts with questions about the org holding the survey, before asking about broader topics. While it’s aimed more at those involved in the arts & entertainment industries (such as performing arts or film), this includes volunteers, students, and “other”.

Why do David Eby’s freshly re-elected BCNDP, whose Health Minister swiftly promised my BCED K-12 wife Novavax availability in the election lead up months ago, now refuse to even respond to her emails?

Must we join Elon’s right wing hate site just to communicate with our out of touch BC govt!?

Politicians like David Eby deflate the BCNDP’s legitimacy by making false promises like this in an attempt to mislead voters.

Does Eby think we voted BCNDP because we enjoy having to beg the apathetic Bonnie Henry and Adrian Dix for basic means of covid mitigation?

David Eby’s campaign clearly lied to us about providing Novavax access (just as John Horgan’s BCNDP feigned support for TMX opposition in the 2016 election) simply to steal our votes. As soon as they have them, they toss our concerns aside and abandon us.

Power corrupts, and re-elected govts often forget that those whose voted them back in, did so for good reasons. To ignore those reasons is to ignore our democratic voices.

ALL in BC should have equal access to covid vaccines. Pfizer is not an viable option for many vulnerable.

Those who must take Novavax for health reasons should not be, yet again, abandoned by Bonnie Henry’s BCNDP.

We demand access to Novavax now or Eby and his cronies can expect a landslide Conservative win next election in BC.

All my future votes in this province will go to the Greens regardless of threat from the magaCons.

I just cannot continue wasting my vote on this flip flopping, out of touch BCNDP.

They ignore covid, they ignore long covid, they ignore Novavax requests from teachers, they ignore covid transmission in hospitals, they ignore the societal damage this unmitigated pandemic is reeking on our schools and communities.

All of us abandoned to a virus by their well paid, capitalist, economy focused health officials.

This BCNDP govt has embraced societal sickness and now refuses to provide viable vaccine options. Disgraceful politicking. Vote them out.
