B.C. will only consider mask mandate if new major virus emerges: public health officer
B.C.’s provincial health officer says they have no plans to re-introduce a mask mandate in the near future, and would likely only consider one if a new virus suddenly emerges.
Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix provided a public health update Wednesday , speaking to the current respiratory illness situation and responding to calls to bring back masks. Henry said while masks were a vital tool at this time last year, mandating them is not necessary this time around. This, she said, is largely due to a higher degree of immunity among people aged five and older and the introduction of a vaccine for young children.She said the only reason she could see for re-implementing a mandate is if a new and major virus were to emerge.
