skategal Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Just watched Keith Baldrey on Global, he had an interesting bit of info that is positive.....the comparison of infections over a 2 week period is down in both Fraser and Vancouver Coastal Health compared to the previous 2 week period. Unfortunately it's going up in the rest of the Health Authorities, and they are certainly not equipped to manage high numbers of COVID where there are small hospitals (or in small communities no hospitals), fewer doctors and fewer specialized pieces of equipment. I can't imagine the level of trauma that health care workers will carry with them well beyond the far reaches of this pandemic. What they have seen, how hard they have worked, having to deal with non believers....read a story from a Jewish doctor working in ER dealing with a patient who arrived by ambulance, suffering from COVID. When they pulled his shirt open he was covered with swastika tattoo's. The doctor talked about his feelings in seeing that while doing his best to keep the patient alive.

10pavelbure96 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Mark was a great anthem singer, not many incorporate the audience like he did. Pretty sad state this world is in. Ever since the mask mandate the numbers haven't improved at all, it was a pro mask rally yes but it was also a christmas charity event. But global has a fear agenda to push 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't want to discuss it...but they should have to. It's their damn system. Deb, a lot of that money is going to pay salaries for bus drivers, Skytrain personnel, maintenance/road mechanics, depot staff, trainers, transit security, transit police, and expanding bus routes and expanding the Skytrain to the suburbs to just name a few things. Without ‘transit’ the economy would grind to a halt and traffic across Metro Vancouver would be insane. It’s very important that riders of transit protect their credit cards by changing their passwords. Also, the good people of BC Ferries are literally doing yeoman’s work for the last few months. Not to mention the work bus drivers, transit security and Skytrain staff have had to deal with. Making sure our transit system is fully funded is more important than most people realize. I hope this gives some context to you and others when it comes to any critiques that some may hold in their mind about the funding announcement.

Duodenum Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Mask mandate is working (duh): The seven day trailing average is down to 712 per day. The seven day trailing count is down to 4,981 and below 5,000 for first time since Nov 23. The incidence value per 100,000 person-years is 5,455. This matches a previous record. Incidence based on 14 day count. Until this majorly declines we will have restrictions. The time to double the total case count, as measured over last five days only, remains at 33 days. A good value is 60 days and a great value is over 100. The time to double daily new case count as measured since Oct 1 is roughly 21 day. Up a day. Data for last 7 days looks different than data from Oct 1 to last Friday. There is a decline of new cases per day halving every 25 days. Last time we saw a decline the data included errors. Hopefully this holds and is real change. To be clear. The number of new cases is growing but we are decelerating. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this gives some context to you and others when it comes to any critiques that some may hold in their mind about the funding announcement. My former boss was a Translink consultant ... every cost saving measure he proposed was ignored. He reported redundant positions but there was no interest in tightening up...a lot of floaters in the system. He got fed up and quit to start his own business (where I met him). They're a money wasting organization, even IF they also do provide a service. This isn't about the bus drivers or people out on the front lines. It's the ones sitting in an office who want to just roll past this like it never happened. It's our responsibility to change our passwords but it's their responsibility to safeguard the system and, if there is a breach, to take appropriate measures to also protect our information. I resent the implication that it was somehow not their worry and "we should have" done something (more). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duodenum Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Provinces with stricter rules found to have better recovery outcomes. Employment returns faster with a smarter, science based approach. Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, unsurprisingly, have the worst outcomes both in terms of controlling cases and employment recovery. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
