BC Health Minister Margaret MacDiarmid wants health care workers to either get a flu shot, or be wearing a mask, as of December first.
"Steps will have to be taken if people won't cooperate with that, because we're talking about patient safety and that is our top priority; it has to be our top priority, it has to be our top priority,it has to be the ministry's top priority and it has to be the facilities as well."
The minister got her flu shot today.
Right now, about 50 percent of health care workers get a shot.
