Dr. Steven Pelech Letter* to UBC President Santa Ono calls for end of mandatory masking.
“In view of the negative physiological, psychological, and environmental impacts of masks, mask wearing should no longer be compulsory but an option for those that remain fearful of the SARS-CoV-2 virus despite the extremely low risk that it presents to certainly the student demographic on our campuses, and staff and faculty under retirement age. It’s time to follow the science, and as an evidence-based institution of higher learning, we need to set the example for the rest of our society.”
