00:00:00.000 Or do you expect that masks will be in place in schools for the remainder of the school year?
00:00:04.440 Thank you for that question.
00:00:05.780 So we're reviewing all public health measures and making recommendations to government.
00:00:09.760 I would think my initial feeling is that we keep initially measures in the school setting to ensure that parents have confidence, workers have confidence, and students have confidence to go to school.
00:00:23.960 So I anticipate that the measures that we may remove at a societal level will remain in the school setting a bit longer to maintain that safety protocol.
00:00:34.740 We don't want to lose any days in school.
00:00:36.700 We want to maintain presenteeism in the school setting and ensure all children feel confident and comfortable in the classroom.
00:00:43.980 So my gut's telling me that we'll delay any removal of public health measures in the school setting after we remove them at a population or community level.
00:00:53.960 Next question.
