Ep 180: Flatten the curve

The only thing on anyone’s minds in the latter half of this week has been the novel coronavirus COVID-19. We review the current (as of March 12, 2020) state of the virus in BC and the latest advice from BC’s Chief Public Health Officer and the Public Health Agency. Then we get into the political reactions, both who’s directly affected and who thinks they have a better plan. And what other policy alternatives are out there. Remember: Wash your hands and stay home if you’re sick. Check out our partner: BC Today is the daily newsletter dedicated exclusively to BC Politics.
