Please sign and share. Cleaning the air we breathe dramatically reduces viral transmission. Imagine rarely getting sick and how much better you and your family would feel. We all deserve to breathe air as clean as the water we drink.
We have launched a new petition demanding an update from GNB on promised clean air initiatives and for government to acknowledge airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

As promised, I sought to find out why NB redefined Covid-19 deaths and how that redefinition impacted reporting, and the response is frightening.
They changed the definition based on vibes, resulting in 2 of every 3 covid-caused deaths not being reported.

Still wrapping my head and my words around this, but here is a peak at what I've uncovered.
In addition to spurious rationale for abandoning the nationally established definition of a Covid-19 fatality, NB's reporting change led to approximately 44% of Covid-caused deaths to go uncounted in 2023.

With so many new people arriving, it's a good time to repost this dive into our FOI/RTI work which exposed how every provincial and territorial public health office knew about the severity and prevalence of Long Covid in July 2020 and did nothing.

In Nov 2022 we exposed the fact that public health officials in *all* provinces and territories had been receiving a staggering quantity of high quality information on the prevalence and severity of Long Covid since as early as July 2020...

Updated sequencing to January 12.
We see JN.1 and its ilk now making up almost 42% of cases, up from a max of 6% of cases in December. JN.1 is thought to be more immune evasive and has fuelled recent C19 waves globally.

I'd like to pause here and note that our official Covid-19 death count is 999.
999 New Brunswickers have been killed by this virus in under four years.
What should be an atrocity is broadly accepted as normal, inevitable and not worthy of active mitigation.

It is wishful thinking that the posted data represent what is in our communities.
It may or may not.
Current NB C19 "data" are unburdened by reality. They are poorly sampled and questionably analyzed and represent only what is happening in particular buildings in the province.
