New pandemic guidance reflects ‘highly-vaccinated’ community, says B.C. family doctor

Omicron variant of COVID-19 continues to spread rapidly throughout B.C., public health officials have changed their approach to pandemic management in an effort to minimize social disruption.New guidance issued Friday was less restrictive for adults who test positive for COVID-19 and their close contacts, but family physician Dr. Birinder Narang reassured British Columbians that the changes are reflective of a “highly-vaccinated community.”“I think we’ve realized that there are extreme limitations in the ability to do that kind of pandemic management that we’ve all gotten accustomed to, and that’s with testing, tracing and monitoring, isolation enforcement,” said Narang, who is also Global BC’s medical contributor.“What I’m grateful for is that there is evidence that the way Omicron is behaving is that there is less severe disease associated with it and I think a lot of the briefing today reflected that.“ B.C.’s top doctor signals major shift in COVID strategy, says contact tracing no longer useful On Friday, provincial health officer Dr.

28 in isolation amid COVID-19 outbreak at The Salvation Army Centre of Hope in London, Ont.

COVID-19 outbreak was declared this week at The Salvation Army Centre of Hope in London, Ont.The centre’s executive director Jon DeActis told Global News the outbreak was declared on Wednesday by the Middlesex-London Health Unit after a number of clients at the shelter either tested positive for the virus or were identified as close contacts. Here’s a look at Ontario’s planned timeline to lift COVID-19 restrictions As of Thursday evening, 18 clients had been impacted by the outbreak, half of whom have tested positive while the other half were identified as close contacts, according to DeActis.“They’re all in isolation, we’re full, but we’re isolating every single person and we’re using our chapel to isolate as well,” DeActis said.“The problem is the isolation beds were full, so we can’t get them moved from our place into the isolation beds, which are in the hotels, so once those beds become available we’re moving our clients into those.”Another 10 staff members are isolating at home, three of whom have tested positive while the rest are close contacts.Since the Centre of Hope is a congregate setting, staff are required to isolate for 10 days rather than five.DeActis says the Centre of Hope is in contact every day with the MLHU as the outbreak continues, adding that the centre has been given increased access to PCR testing as well.

North Penn officials say photo shows teacher taping mask to student's face

(Photo by Beata Zawrzel/NurPhoto via Getty Images) LANSDALE, Pa. - A Montgomery County school district is responding to a photo they say showed a school employee taping a mask to a student's face. North Penn School District has released a statement in response to the photo and confirmed the incident occurred in one of their schools. They say the photo was taken last week, though it is unknown who took the photo or how it made its way to social media. The district has also not confirmed which one of their schools the incident occurred in. In their statement, the district says the photo does not represent the district's universal values they strive to instill in students and staff. School officials say the incident was immediately investigated, adding that it was an isolated incident and "no malice was intended.""The actions of the teacher were entirely inappropriate and unacceptable, no matter the context," the statement reads.
