  1. Nah. There was a viral meme on Facebook that said gargle salt in your throat to kill the virus. Another one that said the virus can't survive in heat up to 27 degrees ... even though the human body is 36-37 degrees? And there's a ton of essays posted by anonymous doctors from anonymous countries working in anonymous hospitals and they all have differing "warnings" Also, F45 is advertising their gyms on Facebook. They should fire their ad company.
  2. I'm not gonna do your homework for you, I'm sure you know how to use the internet. You can read the study on the combination of chloroquine and azithromycin turning positive covid patients to negative testers. You can educate yourself on how herd immunity works after majority (70%) of a population gets a virus and their immune system has built antibodies to it. You can research yourself the plasma compounds that Iranian scientists found that contained antibodies to Covid and how they can be replicated. Chinese and other Asian labs don't have the same restrictions as North America for producing vaccines for mass use. Some are reportedly as near as 80 days away.
  3. @stawns Go have a beer of a glass of vino The world isn't ending. China is already on the downswing less than 3 months into this. Starbucks and Apple have re-opened all their stores in China, the ports are open in China. Don't look at the outlier (Italy, that waited for several hundred deaths before deciding to act). Far too much technology and science in these days for this to last much past the summer. Not saying COVID will be eradicated by the end of the summer, but much of life should be resuming as most people will have gotten it and fought it off and more and more drugs are available to combat it if someone does get it moving forward. However, if you still think you'll be social distancing 18 months from now, I've got a great collection of spam canned meat to sell ya!
  4. Enact the emergency services act and let’s get this lockdown show on the road. Given the packed patios in white rock, Port Moody breweries, English bay and kits beach, social distancing isn’t gonna happen without threat of a fine or jail time.
  5. Let’s say only 4 nhl players test positive for covid and they recover in the next 2-4 weeks. They could presumably begin playing in empty arenas in 6-8 weeks. I don’t think Daly means fans will be packing playoff games.
  6. See my post from a few pages back from last night.
  7. Kits beach an hour ago photo not mine. Retweeted by Dan Murphy
  8. Also, an update regarding the horrifying sight I saw last night in white rock.
  9. Not public news. I did hear this from a very reliable source who is working the front lines. However, I do disclaim again that this is not public news so believe it or not. There's a fairly large community outbreak in North Van among the Iranian population. Lions Gate has set up a satellite site strictly for this community and anyone that's been in contact with them. True or not (heard it from someone assigned to work at this site) it's great to hear some quick, proactive measures being taken.
  10. Thanks for the info! Not as black and white as I initially thought. Definitely don't want to risk them filing for bankruptcy and having my shares go to 0.
  11. Shoot, you guys are right, forgot they sold. So Air Canada will be my go. In past examples of public companies getting bail outs, do you guys know if the smart buy was pre bail out or immediately post?
  12. Do you guys recommending buying Air Canada and West Jet just before the bailout, or immediately after? They're both gonna get bailouts, just not educated enough to know if it's smarter to buy before or after.
  13. Everlywell will be releasing 30k at home tests on March 23 with physician follow up via Telehealth, and will rapidly be releasing more in the days following. It'd be cool if Canada had a private company with those capabilities.
  14. White Rock Pier is packed shoulder to shoulder. The patios are open and packed as well. (I was in my vehicle, did not step foot out there) But wtf?
  15. Certainly not the case in BC. BC Disease Control put out a statement today of who they'll test. 1. Anyone that's admitted to a hospital past ER 2. Anyone who is a healthcare worker that is symptomatic 3. long term care residents Everyone else is to stay home, avoid ibuprofen, get plenty of fluids, take Tylenol and binge Netflix
  16. 20 minutes alternating stationary lunges (while watching Netflix) 5 x AMRAP for pushups 5 x AMRAP for tricep dips on edge of chair or sofa 5 x AMRAP resistance band bicep curls 5 x AMRAP resistance band overhead press 5 x AMRAP air squats 5 x AMRAP resistance band flung over closet door tricep push down 5 x AMRAP resistance band flung over closet door lat pull from kneeling position Been doing this the last 3 days. Pretty great sweat (especially the 20 minutes of lunging consecutively - try it - it's a burner) and actually some good pumps.
  17. Not sure. I think the hope is that if landlords get a 6 month mortgage break they won't gouge their renters. https://globalnews.ca/news/6694459/coronavirus-canada-big-banks-mortgage-payment-deferrals/?utm_source=GlobalOkanagan&utm_medium=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR1uS4XA-aX6vJwKQJCQInWl6_lbBoYQ-_FCnztHWk_HusWo34zePjN3PdU
  18. Mortgages can be deferred 6 months without penalty or interest. Hallelujah
  19. I agree Newton isn't a fit - he's just really the only "game changer" out there (though not always changing the game in a good way). Would much rather go the draft route and let a couple guys battle it out in TC.
  20. Teddy's a Panther isn't he? Honestly, not really. You could bring in Glennon and see if he's more up than down, but unless they trade for Newton, there's no one that will make an immediate difference. We do have 12 draft picks, including 4 in the first 3 rounds, so who knows. Should be interesting though. Would love to draft Jordan Love - he's got all the raw skill and BB and McD can help with the IQ. Also love Jake Fromm. Guy is all character.
  21. Probably let Stidham and a veteran signed/traded for fight it out in TC.
