Is there any talk of allowing kids 5-11 to get boosters before returning to school amid a 7th wave of covid infections? We are 8 months out from second doses in this age group now...@imgrund @SylviaJonesMPP @fordnation

[Laura Walton @waltonmom]

If you are a school board trustee in ON - seeing the Star report today & hearing the cases rising- are you asking for emergency meetings to address the issues & keep schools safe. We have proof we can’t rely on @Sflecce #OPSBA #OCSTA #AECPO #CEPEO

[Colin Furness MISt PhD MPH @FurnessColin]

Making sense of Ontario CMOH Moore's complacency about rapid spread of COVID in schools and elsewhere.

A thread.

There are two ways to understand COVID:

1. "It's only a respiratory virus, and if we can keep people out of the ICU, it's a win. Wear a mask if you want."

SHOULD I YELL AT CHILDREN STILL WEARING MASKS?

[Heidi Wayling @HeidiWayling]

@krushowy “This in close contact with medically fragile students/staff may want to consider masking.” So can we send letters out to all the students notifying them of medically fragile classmates/staff? Because most of the time no one knows this….

[Cheri DiNovo @CheriDiNovo]

If your Board or School Admin isn't maintaining a masks in school policy they aren't providing a safe learning environment. DEMAND safety for our children and our staff. All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing #BA2variant #UnsafeSchools

@shailenepanylo Is that like, when you care about all people, and want to stand up to help everyone? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Susan Gardner @SueGard94]

It won’t kill anyone to wear a mask for an extra two weeks.
But it might kill someone if we don’t… @nilikm @VeraEtches @ETFOeducators @OCETFO @OCDSB

👀 👇🏾 Here is why we the Ford government should proceed with caution.

Ontarians deserve stability and safety, not more chaos and we want to continue in-person learning in #onted. #onpoli

@AF38474863 @ONT_Dad The gym teacher, music teacher, ect, see hundreds of kids every day. Are they supposed to keep updated lists of every kid in every class and check it every 10min?

[Heidi Wayling @HeidiWayling]

@ssm6236 @ONT_Dad The gym teacher sees hundreds of kids in a day, same with the music teacher. Are they to be keeping track of which parents want masks/don’t, and who to call?

[Kate Dupuis @DrKateTO]

Kids have to get back to normal! We need to see their smiles! Driving is more risky than covid!

Why would we put 1 in 4 Ontario kids at risk of longstanding cognitive/physical/emotional changes? What will happen to a generation of kids? 💔

IMAGINE March 15: If our Govs upped PCR testing, made sure every indoor space had adequate ventilation, provided N95 masks to those who must work indoors and schools. Imagine a Gov that followed the science?

[Heidi Wayling @HeidiWayling]

Would really like to see more schools boards doing this, especially @DDSBSchools @niki_lundquist

[Waterloo Region DSB @wrdsb]

On Monday, #WRDSB trustees sent a letter to Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore and Minister of Education Stephen Lecce to request two more weeks following March Break to pivot to the end of mandatory masking in schools. #OntEd

@newsdurham No.

[Kaden Johnson🇨🇦 @KJ_King16]

Ontario families decided how their children would be receiving their education this year with the understanding that masks would be in place all year and that we would have consistently updated & publicly available data on Covid-19 cases in classrooms. Both are gone now #onted

[Heidi Wayling @HeidiWayling]

@acoyne Are we really still arguing that “a persons face needs to be visible when they are swearing oaths”? As if we can’t tell who a person is if the lower part of their face is covered? I mean…Everyone I sees has their face covered except their eyes…I know who they are…🤷🏻‍♀️

[Heidi Wayling @HeidiWayling]

@polish_man23 This is exactly what leads to bullying about masks. Your kids are going to go to school and call kids with masks on names. I could tell my kids that people who don’t wear masks are selfish. I’m very careful not to…I tell them they need to respect different choices.
