COVID-19: At what point will a B.C. school close for functional reasons?
Description
January 7, 2022
Global BC reporter Richard Zussman asks when a school might close for functional reasons and when parents will be able to send their children back to school after an exposure. Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said if in doubt, parents should keep their kids home, just to be safe. She acknowledges it is going to be a challenging time for families.
