More than three months after promising to require all health-care workers to be vaccinated against COVID-19, the province is finally implementing the policy.
Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry announced on Wednesday family doctors, dentists, chiropractors, physiotherapists and pharmacists will be required to be vaccinated by March 24, 2022.
Henry said there is a process in place for medical exemptions, which can be submitted to her office. “We have been working with the colleges to sort through the details on the notice we put forward in October. It is about creating a standard,” Henry said.
Health-care workers in acute care and in long-term care are already required to be vaccinated against COVID-19. There is fewer than 3,000 workers province-wide who refused to get vaccinated and were fired due to that decision.

End mandates!
As the rest of the world, including most canadian provinces, are dropping their mandates due to no evidence of efficacy, its certainly an awkward time to double down and introduce more mandates…
50,000 views with 261 likes. Lol!!!! That's my Canada. I haven't worn a mask in 3 weeks. I won't be either. call the cops. I'm still not wearing one.
When they start , soft talking., "Danger Will Robinson." ✍️😷
Scientific studies have shown that repeated vaccination will weaken your Immune system.
She sounds like a soft spoken drug pusher
BH needs to go, free Canada. Across the board,
Bonnie is going to prison
The BC government is both corrupt and incompetent. When all provinces are lifting mandates, these idiots are imposing new ones. If they don't start changing their authoritarian ways, we will start the same protests as in owttawa. I worked every day since this pandemic and I do not get this virus. I will not get their tainted vaccine and I demand to see the agreements between the suppliers and this government. They are trying to rule us with fear and I am not buying this garbage. I have a BSc from UBC and I know exactly what I am doing with my body.
Leave us alone. You are already robbing us blind with your taxes. Stop this insanity and let us move on with our lives. We do not believe your lies and we are not intimidated by your threats. We will get our freedoms back… One way or another 🖕
read the book Fauci the real story and you will see how corrupt and evil this whole scamdemic has been and why the puppets are all in on it…. lies and money!!
Adrian Dix should be charged & put in jail. He has no right or authority to be a health minister. The Whisperer is full of crap. We will all move to Alberta if the keep this Vax Mandate. I can't go to my home town pub. I can't go to public pool. I can't sit at a table for lunch. Who am I? I'm an Unvaxed Healthy Canadian who followed all the rules. Destroying business isn't going to win your next election. Get out of our lives. Now. Uphold the Charter & Restore Informed Consent & Medical Privacy. My God.
Get this lady out of office!!!
100000s of certain hard working people walked out the door by UNIONS and employers.
No income or support!
If you believe in your right to choose… you were let go.
100000s of certain ideological individuals denied the right to earn money… losing homes.
You wonder why there is support!
I wish you guys would let me legally leave the country because you have made it completely unlivable here. What exactly do you think is gonna happen when you make a huge portion of the populace people with nothing to loose??? Well you sure make a lot of enemies that is for sure. I would never want to walk alone in public for the rest of my life if I where as scummy and corrupt as these two parits
Crimes Against Humanity
Free Informed Consent
Arrest All Infected Politicians
what a joke!
End the god damn MN andates liar the mas KJ s need to go as well
Heil Trudolf!
why is she still here? get her off the public dime and lets get on with it. its been 2 years you have all been useless and a hinderence to normal life go away before we start investigating your shady dealing and connections and you end up in jail
F u and brining on more mandates.
Just wow. Sick of listening to these people. Ffs
Trudeau, Singh, May, Horgan, Dix and Henry are all in the beginning phase of being litigated, investigated, soon to be audited for their crimes against Canadians. Only cowards and fools acknowledge their authority. What they’ve done is diabolical.
Do all the vaccinated people still think the hospitals are burdened with unvaccinated people? Do they understand that the first 14 days after inoculation counts as unvaccinated? Do we understand that VAIDS is next but unvaccinated won’t have VAIDS. Hmm weird times.
I realized in the last 2 weeks that NDP are not for ppl, they are cowards, against freedom of choice and for discrimination, destroying our charter of rights and freedoms. They all should be in prison!
Can we please have the science behind vaccinating and forcing children to wear masks all day in school? Bonnie Henry listen to the experts on the latest paediatric science, data and natural immunity. You need to update and start protecting our children. We don’t need to vaccinate our children to protect the most vulnerable. Stop using our children.
Foryour children’s sake BC rise up against tyranny you spineless socialists!
LIES!!!!!
Don't worry, someone who got fired because of this is going to catch Bonnie slipping. You'll see. lol
You have people going to work now mild case but POSITIVE, fully spreading the virus.
Yet you can't have healthy healthcare workers who havnt had the shot, most likely have already gotten it. Worked directly in areas with high risks and basic PPE while everyone else was home scared.
Makes no sense. This was only supposed to be 2 weeks to flatten the curve. So hospitals could get better equipped. Turned into 2 years of rights and freedoms being taken away and thousands of people loosing jobs.
Insane inflation from over printing money. This is just ridiculous now.
In Canada there has been 3x as many deaths from heart disease or just about 5x as many from cancer yet you don't see any mandates making people exercise and eat healthier.
Out of all the cases. Only 0.01% have died. Out of all those deaths 92.8% of them are 60+. So we are locking down and restricting the working class. This makes no sense. We have one of the highest V rates in the world. Just let us go back to normal. Let our kids grow up normal.
Stop making people live in fear. Let us live our lives the way we see fit. If someone wants to wear a mask or get an extra shot let them, if they don't let them.
Let us be a free Canadian country again.
We just want to know what date will BC be removing vaccine mandates and restrictions. What date in March can we expect this too happen?
BC the only province putting on Mandates all the rest getting rid of Mandates, WOW NDP is such a great party for the workers, Liberal Puppets!!!!!!!!!!
What a disgraceful human.
This lady needs an enema
This government reminds me of a car thief, who steals my car and now thinks that they're doing me a favour by bringing it back. Perhaps they should be dealing with science and not their political agendas
