...... including the requirement for people with COVID-19 to self-isolate..

The one I don't get is "self-isolate". There are many people who just don't care about other people and also not about infecting others



It's so typical of humans in general. All one extreme or all the other .. with no common sense in-between or compromise

I feel the British government much like the Alberta and Saskatchewan governments to do the adult and responsible thing and isolate without being forced by the state......we do that if catch the flu..



We'll soon see if people do the responsible thing.

B.C. pharmacies to distribute free rapid tests for people aged 70 and over



The province says the program will expand to younger ages as supply grows

I believe pharmacies here are distributing them to anyone on a first come first serve basis while supplies last.
