The President of the National Police Federation believes all provinces including BC should be adopting the National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) guidance when it comes to vaccination.
In BC, RCMP and police services are not deemed an essential service and will have to wait like the general public to get vaccinated for COVID-19.
Brian Sauve can’t understand why police officers have been put so low on the list.
“To me, it’s asinine, as a police officer you cannot call ahead to find out who is symptomatic or not symptomatic. You are dealing with the risk at hands.”
