And it would be an overwhelming thing to just do business as usual and expect things would just be handled. We all need to do our part to prevent that as much as possible. but you should. They did a very good job with SARS, and they learned those lessons from that and are implementing the things that can be done. So far the numbers in Canada are following a good line all things considered. Overcrowding is unavoidable, we just can't afford to have empty beds 99% of the time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most consistent symptom does seem to be fever, in the young and healthy especially. As much as I don't mind discussing general situations, I won't give medical advice on this board. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once one percent of the population or four different sites of infection are established in the country, they probably don't help much. Still isolation after travelling is likely a good idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grow up. no, I think the greater disservice is the line you're towing. That we've responded (we have a sign at the airport), or that we're prepared. Neither are true. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
