B.C. health care workers share important message about self-isolation
While self-isolation or a two-week quarantine may seem like an inconvenience to some, healthcare workers in B.C. would like to remind you why these measures are absolutely necessary.
Vancouver Coastal Health posted photos of nine B.C. healthcare workers at Vancouver General Hospital to Twitter on Thursday, March 19, in an effort to get the message out.
Help us stop the spread of #COVID19 by staying home and social distancing.

To promote self-isolation and emphasize the importance of staying home during the COVID-19 pandemic, they each hold up a sign reading: "I stayed at work for you. You stay at home for us."
