More context in school covid case announcements please! Stop scaring people! #onted #ottnews #onpoli

There should be more CONTEXT with school case numbers. What is community infection rate. What is school age infection rate. Any hospitalizations of teachers or kids? low number of oubreaks compared to cases is a success!!

The wrong way to write about K-12 COVID-19 cases

Also, the term “outbreak” is too loaded. The defn in Ontario is so low and scares people. Even with the low threshold of calling a “outbreak”, less than 10% of case in schools are declared outbreaks.

Starting August 26 2020, 2 student or staff (or visitor) cases of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 within a specified class within a 14-day period where at least one case COULD have reasonably acquired their infection at school (including transportation and before/after school care) is considered an outbreak in an educational establishment.

In contrast, places like BC and England do not call 2 cases in a class an outbreak. It is called a cluster. Outbreaks are much bigger. BC calls them exposures, clusters, and outbreaks. (And the UK and BC do not send kids home for a runny nose!!

As well, France doesnt even close a class till there are THREE CASES in a class.

#OCSB Notre Dame pushes marxist BLM organization on students. #catholictwitter

Let’s see what BLM believes

We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.

We foster a queer‐affirming network. When we gather, we do so with the intention of freeing ourselves from the tight grip of heteronormative thinking, or rather, the belief that all in the world are heterosexual (unless s/he or they disclose otherwise).

#OCSB spends big on gender diversity books during pandemic. #oecta #catholictwitter

These books should NEVER be in Catholic schools, but during COVID when the $$ could be used for things like air purifiers, they go and buy books like these for their libraries. PRIORITIES! Gender diversity over clean air!

These books are in no way compatible with Catholic Church teaching! i dare OCSB to ask the Archbishop!!

Coming to an @OttCatholicSB learning commons or English classroom (including literature circles) near you this fall. Check out this inventory of diverse literature in mostly #ownvoices #BackToSchool2020 https://t.co/spSJdjkZGa pic.twitter.com/qMD6HrgXuJ
