A friend sent me this Covid Policy Statement (from a church in Vancouver, Canada) and I feel so seen that I'm in tears. It's well written and relatively comprehensive. It is also an astonishing example of care and compassion combined with science to inform an approach to covid.
I'm sharing it here for the many Fedi friends who may be heartened by it or find it useful.

@ShaulaEvans @LonelinessCorps AMEN! Thank you for sharing this! I have not gone to church in person for years bc everybody has moved on and masks are rarely used. Our church actually invested in air purifiers (which are at the periphery) and used to crack windows open, stream services to the parking lot and give communion outdoors. The only thing surviving are the air purifiers now. With all the singing and lack of masking, it is too risky for me to go. Alas, there is some hope in seeing this
@ShaulaEvans @LonelinessCorps Thank you! Otherwise I would not have found this cited article: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0300908423001360

Thank you for posting this.

More places should be like this instead of mocking people for wearing a mask to protect their health.
