BC officials on defensive after report shows COVID-19 data withheld from public

Government of BC BC health officials were on the defensive Friday after leaked internal reports from the BC Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC) showed that only a fraction of available data regarding COVID-19 in the province was being shared with the public. Vancouver Sun, revealed information that isn’t found in the reports that are released to the public by the BCCDC every week. In a last-minute press conference on Friday afternoon, Provincial Health Officer Bonnie Henry and Deputy Provincial Health Officer Réka Gustafson both defended the province’s approach to how data is released. “From the very beginning of this pandemic… we have brought scientists together through the BCCDC to help inform decisions, to work through the data, and help us understand what it means and what’s happening,” said Henry. “You need to understand what the backstory is before you understand what the numbers are.”

Comment: COVID data leak highlights B C public s right to no

I will a) fall off my chair, b) eat my hat, c) drop my jaw, d) buy my colleagues a steak dinner if I receive anything approaching the truth of the matter. I might as well be buying ­lottery tickets and burning them as the machine spits them out. This is how governments of all stripes New Democrat in our case provincially, Liberal in our case federally, Conservative in our case at times historically treat the public right to know. It is more of a public right to no. As in no, you can’t have that. There was thus zero surprise to learn late Thursday that details of the coronavirus presence in the province are concealed from release.
