You also have a bunch of idiots who sent the doc death threats last year.

I can't imagine working a job that involves 1) difficult work to protect the public against a nasty super virus, 2) stressful work because you are under media and public scrutiny and 3) a bunch of Covidiots who threaten your life.

It is no wonder that sometimes you hear Dr. Henry asking British Columbians to be "kind and compassionate" to each other during her Covid briefings.

It is a tough job, that's for sure! Looking over your shoulder because a bunch of idiots want to kill you.

-article from September 2020:


VANCOUVER -- The death threats against B.C. provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry prompted a police response, officials confirmed Wednesday.

Henry discussed the threats while addressing the Union of B.C. Municipalities on Tuesday, as well as the abusive messages and phone calls her office has received during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"We become a target," Henry said. "I've had to have security in my house. I've had death threats."
