Study of covid in schools in the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority shows low rates and very little evidence of transmission in the schools, which is great news. 90% of cases did not result in any school-based transmission, and the majority were contracted in other settings than the school.
Long-awaited data from Vancouver Coastal Health authorities shows that transmission of COVID-19 among children at school remains low.
According to the data from the health authority released Thursday, COVID-19 transmission in children between the ages of five to 17 has accounted for just six per cent of the health region's positive cases, despite representing 10 per cent of region's population.
Numbers gathered between Sept. 10 and Dec. 18 show approximately 700 of the region's 100,000 students or staff have been diagnosed with COVID-19.
It also shows that 90 per cent of those cases have not resulted in any school-based transmission, and that a vast majority of them were contracted either at home, or in social settings outside of schools.
Low numbers across B.C.
In late December, Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said the data showed school-aged children represented about 12 per cent of B.C.'s COVID-19 caseload at that time.Between Nov. 1 and Dec. 18, there were 526 exposure events in B.C. schools, the vast majority of which were in the Vancouver Coastal Health and Fraser Health regions.
About three-quarters of COVID-19 cases in schools during that period had been in students, while the rest were in staff.

Give me a phedophile-esque lone village away from the rest of society to live in for us people who don't treat animals like shit. With an air of a Wes Anderson movie. Throw in a Bill Murray character as the mayor. Have Pearl Jam play at the christmas parade.

23scidoo said:This is really sad. As the pandemic wears on, more and more I'm seeing masks on the ground along the walking path we have been taking every day to try to keep in shape. And that's just one path in this semi-rural part of the state. There must be millions of these things lying around. Normally, I would consider collecting trash along the walk, but who wants to pick up someone's discarded mask? It begs these questions, "Why the fuck are there so many of these things lying around? Why are people not using washable cloth masks?"The other way in which the environment is taking a big hit is with more plastic and paper being discarded every day. I can't imagine how many Styrofoam, cardboard, and plastic boxes, as well as paper napkins, and plastic utensils are going in the trash these days. Hundreds of millions? Billions?And just when people were starting to get on board with bringing their own reusable bags to the grocery store, almost no one does that any more. How many billions of plastic and paper bags are now being used one time? BILLIONS. We take cloth bags with us and put them on the lower part of the cart and ask the cashier to just scan the items in the cart. After paying, I move the cart aside and bag my own stuff so they don't have to handle my bags. No big deal. Is this to much for most people to do? I don't think so.It's fucking awful what we are doing to the planet.And then one day we'll ask that famous David Byrne question: "Well, how did I get here?"
