Guide helps BC post-secondaries plan for fall

As post-secondary schools in BC prepare for students to return to campus in the fall, the provincial government has created guidelines to help the process.

The COVID-19 Return to Campus Primer offers high-level advice to ensure the safe return of students, staff and faculty. BC’s Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry, has said that, by the fall, transmission of the virus is expected to be low and serious infections will be uncommon.

“COVID-19 is a virus that is unlikely to be eliminated from the population, but can be managed in the same manner as other common respiratory infections,” states the province’s news release.
