‘Two weeks too late’; Kamloops parent pushing for faster contact tracing and school exposure notices
KAMLOOPS — Parents at Arthur Stevenson Elementary in Kamloops are voicing concerns over the amount of time it took to be notified of their children’s exposure to COVID-19.
Chelsea Price and her family have been hunkered down in isolation for nearly a week, after her two kids were exposed – eventually testing positive – along with her husband. Price feels if they had known sooner, the virus may not have spread through their household the way it did.
“I really strongly feel that if my son had been in isolation, I could have protected my husband. I could have protected my daughter,” Price tells CFJC Today.
