    Masks are no longer required in BC but remain mandatory at doctors' offices, patient contact areas, and federally-regulated workplaces. . The passport is still in play until April 8th .

    Im not changing my routine. Masks will be worn and IF we eat out it will be takeout. Not ready for this.

    I am also not ready to be out with a mask . My family made the decision that we will continue to wear our mask until we are comfortable removing regardless what others do

    I am so ready to not wear a mask at the store, even though I am immune compromised and have medications to reduce immunity even more. But I already got COVID-19 at exactly a year ago, plus vaccines. Totally done with masks!

    Be aware that re-infection is still possible, whether by the same strain or another variant.

    @flemeth , I agree. The labs can't keep up on their tests and are still behind on their tests. People who want a pcr test can't get them. The little kids under 5 years of age, can't even get a vaccine yet. In ON only 15% of children have their 2 doses. That's very low. These kids can get sick or pass on to their families or even their older relatives they go to visit.

    And New Zealand, Thailand and Hong Kong are having bad COVID outbreaks. New Zealand is going into their "Fall" season now. Is this what we can expect in the Fall?

    The ON politicians are thinkin about the election, IMHO and not the illness. It's a shame.

    Totally on the ball on that one. I have done 3 Rapid Tests since December to January and all came out Negative. So far, so good!

    Exactly. I remember when they lifted masks here in the summer when the vaccine rates were super high and people got complacent. Then cold and flu season ramped up and between that and Covid numbers skyrocketing they imposed the masks again and it’s like people forgot how to wear them or to wear them at all. That’s why we won’t be removing masks in our household.

    I will be the 1st to lose the mask. Done with this, can't wait. p.s. I am in school every day with 200 unmasked kids in the cafeteria. No worries.

    Thankfully the vaxport ended yesterday. What a useless divisive tool of coercion. Legault is an a-hole.

    Now there are major outbreaks in china and parts are on lockdown again. This new variant BA.2 has caused the worst outbreak in china in 2 years and their numbers more than doubled in 24 hours. It’s a little concerning but so far while it may spread easier it doesn’t appear to lead to hospitalization especially if vaccinated but still don’t want to get it. Not interested in being a long hauler or whatever they will find out later about long term organ, etc damage.

    I believe that the sino inoculation was not as protective against Omicron as Pfizer or Moderna.

    Travel announcement tomorrow morning from the federal government: Canadians returning after April 1, fully vaccinated, will not need a pre-arrival COVID test.

    I know of individuals (extended kin) pondering a visit Stateside next month for a family event and one of them is waiting to see what the rules are before deciding to go ahead with attending or staying put at home.

    Not sure how much fun it might be if they all go and one gets the random airport testing upon return to Canada and possibly gets stuck with the stay in the hotels for isolation.

    For the time being, I will use a mask at the library (have to check if any rules have been updated for March 21 or not-staffer did not know last week when I asked) and inside retail but once the weather heats up, I may not if I cannot breathe with it on. Getting harder to breathe for me and carrying a shopping basket and moving with a cane in a store.

    I know once I am stuck staying at home (due to health issue),, I cannot expect other family to wear masks at home. Not with them bringing in a friend or two over and indoors every so often and guests also not wearing masks. I better plan ahead to the extent I can and make my room my happy place for spring.

    Do the best you can by ensuring proper ventilation; sit next to an open window.
