Re: Mandatory Mask Policy for Vancouver Civic Facilities

Dear Vancouver City Council:

We have recently seen more Canadian cities appropriately introduce mask mandates in civic facilities. We would like to express our support for Sarah Kirby-Yung’s motion B2 for mandating masks in Vancouver Civic Facilities (1).

We cannot afford another “lockdown” which leads to devastating effects on individuals and society. We need to act now and focus on improving our use of all basic interventions to reduce both transmission, and severity of illness from COVID-19.

We recognize that non-medical masks, cloth face coverings, and surgical/medical masks are not 100% effective in protecting against respiratory viruses including SARS-CoV-2. However, the emerging data strongly support the effectiveness of masks for protecting ourselves and others from developing COVID-19 (2,3).

The evidence for mask use in preventing transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (2,3), and reducing severity of illness from COVID-19 (4) is growing. It is important to understand that the effect of masks on this pandemic is a   population-level outcome where individual-level interventions have an aggregate effect on the community (5,6). Currently, the evidence supports mask mandates and the policy approach is consistent with the precautionary principle (7). Furthermore, the emerging evidence for aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2, emphasizes the importance of source control as one of the several interventions required in reducing transmission risk (8, 9,10). This is especially important as we approach the winter months when more time is spent indoors in public spaces.

We understand that there are perceived harms associated with mandatory mask policies. While we are aware of some potential challenges with mandates, the masking policy can be delivered effectively using harm reduction approaches to ensure high adherence. We need to give people the information to keep themselves and others safe, educate the public, and provide the tools for them to act based on scientific evidence.

We should not let perfection be the enemy of the good. We support your proposal for temporary mask mandates in Vancouver civic facilities. This can be implemented with strengthened messaging that mandatory masking be done in conjunction with other important measures including physical distancing, staying at home when sick, attention to hand hygiene, and seeking diagnostic testing and medical care when indicated.

The use of masks in public is an important and readily modifiable public health measure. We need to strengthen our approaches to prevention to reduce risk of facing another significant closure of facilities in Vancouver. We hope that other cities with ongoing community transmission will follow mask mandates which have already been passed in Delta and Richmond.
