Ontario will no longer be reporting COVID-19 case figures in schools or child-care settings amid an ongoing, provincewide surge in new infections, according to a pair of memos from the Ministry of Education.
The directives to school boards and child-care centre operators, written on Thursday and released by opposition critics a day later, say the provincial government is suspending the reporting of cases in these facilities because of “changes to case and contact management.” “Further information will be shared shortly with school boards on reporting expectations of absences in schools and school closures due to COVID-19, in conjunction with educational and pediatric leaders,” Minister of Education Stephen Lecce and deputy minister Nancy Naylor write in one of the letters.
“Parents have to decide to send their kids to school not knowing if the school has a high number of COVID cases,” NDP education critic Marit Stiles said, in a release.The Ford government is cancelling required reporting of COVID cases in schools & daycare.Accountability? Transparency? Not in Doug Ford Ontario.
The fordnation Ford government is trying to keep case counts at schools and daycare secret so it does effect their polling numbers. Shameful
This is sheer nonsense
It verges on criminal negligence with Sflecce FordNation and OntarioPCParty as the main perps. Onpoli TOpoli tdsb
If this was from the feds, your paper would be demanding the PM resign, Canadians protest on the streets and to contact all Liberal MP's. Since it's Doug & his fordnation, it's SHHH we don't want to upset the oddball at the table. Sound right? CdnMediaFailed FordFailedKids
