Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Alberta's chief medical officer of health, has recommended kids isolate from their grandparents once they head back to class in an effort to be 'extra vigilant' and protect others.

Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Alberta's chief medical officer of health, says families with school-aged children should reconsider attending gatherings with older relatives once the school year beginsCALGARY -- Children across the province are being told to visit family members while they can before heading back to school next month.

She says that while COVID-19 symptoms are milder in children than in adults, they can still carry the disease and infect others including the elderly, who are more susceptible or may have pre-existing health conditions. The recommendation to distance from close family members comes as case numbers rise across the province in relation to family gatherings, weddings, funerals, backyard parties, and prayer meetups.

Family gatherings are dangerous, rioting and looting are not. LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

Why are kids and teachers are going back without proper social distancing

Be careful who you invite. Follow the Libs policies on invitee selection.

🤮

Don't eat the potato salad.

Seriously Come on! This is ridiculous! Look at the numbers! Out of 4.5 million people...

....yet send children back to school..... 🙄🙄

sydthesquider We have family gatherings all the time since the pandemic started and we haven't had any issues, so maybe you need to question that.

Instead family riots and family looting is considered safer .

Be afraid, sheeple!

Bullshit

What exactly is ‘extra vigilant’? How much more vigilant, than simply being regular ‘vigilant’?

If your relatives aren't symptomatic, there's little chance of transmission according to WHO. This is just local politicians on a power trip.

They must spend a lot of time beating the bushes to find these biased “doctors”. Doctors of what, I wonder? News flash...doctors are corruptible. Believe the science & the evidence.

THIS IS YET ANOTHER PACK OF LIES. Infections are down, death 's were over-inflated & are far lower than reported. The CDC just announced no more quarantine needed for those who travel. This is NOT a real pandemic. People need to fight back against these lies!

School is perfectly fine though

Hug, kiss, spend time with your family. Life is precious, live it while you can.

but sending kids to school is ok,
