I'm in an essential public health role where I'm able to socially distance from patients/clients when in person, and I can do some of my work virtually. I'm also not going into anyones homes which I would do normally outside of COVID. I recognize that some are in a position where they can't distance/things are volatile (police officers, paramedics, etc.) and others are in environments that are higher risk (teachers), and others just see waaaay more people in an essential service, even behind barriers (grocery store workers)

So can't speak for other people in similar roles, but that's my two cents. When there's more Astra Zeneca though (which there should be - the 1.5 million doses the White House is going to send Canada was not included in today's current estimates by the BC government) I'll start clamoring for my turn. Want to make sure us public health contractors won't fall through the cracks.
