Lower Mainland health-care workers say they re being turned away at coronavirus vaccine clinics

VANCOUVER Juliet Henderson is a manager at a Lower Mainland group home that offers round-the-clock care for people who have had life-altering injuries from either illness or trauma. Most staff at the facility, including Henderson, received their COVID-19 vaccines during Phase 2 of the province’s rollout. Recently, however, those who haven’t been vaccinated already have started to be turned away from clinics, Henderson said. “We had great support form Fraser health getting us vaccinated starting March 15,” she said. “Suddenly, at the beginning of this month, I started receiving complaints from our staff saying they’re not letting us get vaccinated, they’re turning us away, they’re telling us it’s not our time yet, they’re asking us our age. Most recently, they’ve been told you need to get a letter from (provincial health officer Dr.) Bonnie Henry.”

Preventative medicine vs COVID

Preventative medicine vs. COVID While BC focuses on even more COVID restrictions, the province s health critic says we ve failed to maximize preventative medicine, antibody therapy and rapid testing as ways to curb the virus. If we re going to get serious about this we have to look beyond health orders and restrictions, said Renee Merrifield, who is also the Liberal MLA for Kelowna-Mission. Preventative measures are huge. I take 5,000 international units a day of vitamin D because there s a direct correlation between it boosting your immune system and fighting off COVID. Our bodies naturally make vitamin D from sunlight on your skin and we can also get it from fatty fish like tuna and salmon, cheese, egg yolks and fortified orange juice, cereal and soy milk.
