Nobody knows what is happening with this virus. Indications are that people, regardless of age and without per-existing health issues are becoming seriously ill in Europe. Besides, in Canada we don't support the idea of 'culling our seniors and others with health issues'. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 So BC is stepping up further. Gatherings of 50 or more are now banned (rather than 250). Also sounds like there will be an announcement of some sort regarding school closures tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People complaining not enough has been done now or that they want more or more sooner You literally cannot make anyone happy can you? Because they haven't closed the borders. The US is still allowed in. US, a nation extremely slow and questionable in handling of the situation still has free reign to come into Canada. That's not a legitimate concern? And of course people want things done sooner. Each day sooner exponentially helps eradicate the problem. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Petey40 Posted March 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) 44 minutes ago, Alflives said: It’s killing the weak and sickly. Those who are dying, like with any flu, have underlying medical issues, especially respiratory. And these are numbers based on those who were tested, and were positive. 100 times more people carry the virus with minor or now symptoms. I think this kind of thinking and message should stop. It is a dangerous way to think and the more people that think like that the less they will take this seriously. If people don’t think they’re at risk then they will continue their everyday life and possibly even become an asymptomatic carrier and infect the most vulnerable. This is a virus that scientists know very little about and we are being asked to stay home because it is very dangerous. I have a mom dad and grandma I would love to see make it through this so just shut up about the “let’s let nature run it’s course cause it’s only affecting the weak and sickly”. Absolutely disgusting attitude. Edited March 16, 2020 by Petey40 5 1 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It complaining about how they are still allowing american in even though they have no clue on how to handle the virus. Why cant they just say trucks, trains, planes, transporting food, supplies are allowed in but everybody else cant come in, It such a simple solution. Those clowns today had no clue on how to answer questions today ,saying we are allowing american in because have to self isolate for 14 days. Do they really believe american are going to do that.

More reasons to stay home and avoid people. Don't go out if don't have to. Minimize contact and make distance. Don't go have dinner with friend or bars etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimito Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 1 hour ago, EmilyM said: They're implementing an honour system. People will be asked if they have coronavirus symptoms. What a joke. The truth is, unless you weld the door shut like in China, seperating children from their parents, honor system is the best. Do your part too. Stay home as much as you can. Avoid others. Work from home. Staggered work hrs etc. If we all do our part, the spread will decrease enough to not overwhelm the system. Many will be infected, but most will be ok. It is the rate of spread that matters at this time. Too quick will end up flooding the hospitals like peolple panic buying all the toilet paper. There won't be enough ICU beds or drs and nurses to give optimal care for everyone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he really going to let the demographic that put him in power, the 50+ crowd just be exposed to this? https://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/world/insane-uk-plan-to-let-covid-19-spread-might-kill-half-a-million-people-expert/ar-BB11dQv0?ocid=spartanntp&fbclid=IwAR2xQ3a7wzQSeUjppW5if0rByLrr_5EDOYoYUjQpnaSiMbvpTjVvo9B4XoE That was the initial plan. They seem to be backtracking after a fair bit of criticism and now they're asking people to avoid shops and restaurants and work from home if possible. I'm now working from home for the foreseeable. At least I have that luxury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is wanting to act in your country’s best interests and then there’s HORRIBLE optics. But Urine Man’s voters will still support him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
