Introduction

It has been a while since I have added any new stories to this page as my focus has been on systemic advocacy work, and writing articles for my new page, Canadian Advocacy Centre for Health, Safety and Justice. In this update I am sharing some of the latest infographics I have done for COVID-19 Statistics in B.C. This includes one for Health Care Workers; one on Mask Statistics; and one on general prevalence, and other statistical data for B.C. I have also included an infographic for the latest statistical data for Canada.
