I feel, from your posts, that you are naive to the truth of human behaviour

completely untrue

 

you are naive to what we have just seen happen

the entire population effectively

followed recommendations

and the virus outbreak was managed to be controlled

that is reality

 

not sure what else you need to see

“And stay home if/when they have ailment”

 

Have you not been watching the news lately?

 

STAY HOME UNLESS NECESSARY.

THAT’S THE MEMO.
 

Not “stay home if/ when you’re sick”

 

We’re more than 6 months into a world pandemic and you’re still arguing against Global, National & Provincial protocol?

 

Your necessities should include:

Groceries once a week, alone.

 

...........and that’s about it.

 

Get with the god damn program bud.

 

not true

dr henry repeatedly tells people to get out

get exercise

do you even watch her updates?

i do daily

 

you have your own agenda i think

Not, “was”...

 

”is”. Nothing is over until there’s a vaccine.

 

It’s that simple.

I don’t really care about Dr. Henry.

 

Sorry.

 

Everyone else says stay home. 
 

STAY HOME.

 

You’re right. I have my own agenda; not going out, not getting Covid-19, not taxing our National healthcare, and telling “laxed out” people to get with the program.

you fail to answer what other realism needs to be factored in

 

i get that some people feel afraid no matter what

fear levels do not determine what is safe

 

i strongly advocated adhering to all restrictions and recommendations

they worked

so great, they worked

so let's get on with things

 

if we see there is more then a minor set back

we can always readjust

and be a little more restrictive

but i doubt that will happen

people will maintain safe practices they have learned

we are not stupid

so you are the authority

you issued the memo?

 

seriously people

do what is safe

but don't cower in what was needed to make things safe

learn from it

continue to apply

and let's get more sophisticated about how to more clearly limit activity going forward

a complete shut down is not sustainable

and will in fact incite non compliance

it has to make sense to be effective

based on what?

you are fear mongering

 

practice the safety recommendations

i'm not saying go back entirely to how things were before

i just want to start slowly to more options for people

isolation has its own costs

It's not fear mongering. It's protecting people. I know I'll most likely survive this pandemic. However, if I get this virus, my parents could be dead. That's the reality of the situation.

 

In this case, famous last words mean people you love will die. I'm not saying that to cause fear. I'm saying that's what WILL happen if this virus is not kept in check. Is that what you want?

 

Anyway, I'm not going to hold your hand in all of this. You clearly don't understand the situation we're in and I feel that even if I gave you 30 articles on this subject, you'd still be in some form of denial. Stay safe dude. I know this likely isn't what you want and you're likely frustrated with this whole thing, but stay safe. Err on the side of caution because it's the people who think this whole thing is "fear mongering" who will ultimately kill more people unfortunately.

you plan to stay home for 18 months ?


“You plan on fighting WWII for 18 months?”

 

It’s not a choice.

 

And yes, I plan to stay home for 18 months unless announced otherwise.

 

Read the books. Change careers. Do whatever you do, but STAY HOME.

You are right.
 

However, this is very early in the game and flouting protocol is nothing short of criminal in many instances.

 

Now you got some ideas on how to get out of this, please be my guess in spreading the goods and helping out. 
 

Or even copyright or patent the thing and start it up. 
 

But seriously, advocating going out is the stupidest thing anyone could do right now.

don't be patronizing

it is stupid

 

i have elderly parents who i do not presently see

your emotional nonsense does not help

 

i follow the bc authorities updates

i don't need 30 articles from the internet to confuse things

not sure why you think mass information not properly distilled is helpful

 

the reality is the virus is controlled and tracked

so we have accomplished the initial necessary step

let's take the next one

Except it isn't. We don't actually know how many people have it. We just know there are less known cases per day at the moment, which is great, but that's far from controlled.

 

Perhaps that's the mistake you're making?

Agreed. Too bad others are not reading your posts quite accurately, they seem to have this idea you are going to play tonsil hockey with everyone.

not sure if you are clear on what the mandate or goal was

it was to flatten the curve of the pandemic out break

to get on top of things and track infections

this is all in place

 

there is no plan or illusion that these steps we will stop infections

but the steps that have been taken have done what they were intended to do

 

a vaccine will be helpful

and will get us back to normal

i have not been advocating going back to normal presently

there is no guarantee that a vaccine will be easily developed

this virus is sars2, they still have not developed a vaccine for sars

the vaccine narrative might be a bit optimistic

I wouldn’t spit on anything right now...

 

Going out is safe yes. If you can be down wind, away from cyclists, runners, and the others who may be within 30 feet of you. Sure.

 

I’ll listen to what everyone else with authority on the matter is also saying; not just one Doctor.

 

If a doctor tells you you have cancer, that’s it? You don’t look for another opinion? And a third?

 

If a doctor tells you to go out and ten others tell you not to, are you still going to go out?

this is not black and white

there is middle ground

 

Except you're using words like "control" in this. Flattening does not mean we have "control" either. It means we are taking the right measures. It also means we shouldn't let up just because we think we are in the clear. The more we do now, the better. That's the point of all of it.

 

In my opinion, what you are suggesting will unflatten that curve. That's why I'm against your idea. I think it makes us go the other way back to what it was like a couple of weeks ago.

Flattening the curve doesn’t necessarily mean less dead; it means easing the strain on our medical system. 
 

Flattening the curve lengthens the curve.

 

Self-isolation and social distancing causes less dead.


STAY HOME UNLESS NECESSARY.


Real simple Bud.

you do understand dr henry

is the spokesperson for the medical profession

for the bc center for disease control

you pretend she is acting in isolation

why do you need to engage in this manner of misinformation?
