Taking that type of step only shows they were truly clueless and all the anti vaxxers can say see. People in government would lose so many votes if they deny vaccinated people again. Plus no deaths yet from omni so that's gotta matter right? Until we get to 90% vaccination of the world population, we're going to continue to see variants that are going to complicate recovery on this. This isn't a 2 - 3 year problem, we're going to be dealing with this for 10 - 12 years at least. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jester13 Posted December 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2021 They better not shut everything down again for fully vaccinated people and sports. I get it, people are catching it, but from the sounds of it it's basically just a cold for fully vaccinated people. Shut everything down for the unvaccinated, but not for everyone else. We can't handle another economic crisis, especially when people are getting mild colds. /rant 1 2 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to develop a new vaccine? Lockdowns don't work and to many votes were bought on the promise of vaccination equalling a return to normal. Besides cases were always expected to rise in the winter. Unless a significant increase of serious cases happen they need to do nothing. We can't shut down our economy because more people are getting Covid unless vaccinated start getting extreme cases in large numbers. Limiting capacity at unnecessary sporting events does not equate to shutting down the economy but may be one of the better tools to keep the economy open and running. Nobody with any sense ever promised that vaccinations would equal a return to normal though they are the best and safest path to get as close as possible. Not enough is known about the degree of illness for Omicron though it does appear to be following the more expected path for a virus in a pandemic in that they tend to become increasingly virulent but decreasingly deadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of surprised with full capacity, many people are not wearing masks judging by what I see on TV. Eating, drinking, shouting and singing, what did they expect? Vaccines work, but they are not 100% at reducing infection. It's designed to prevent severe disease and does it well, and still does it well despite what the variant of the month is. Also, does Rogers Arena allow unvaccinated children to enter? I suspect they do, but don't know the policy. No rapid test requirements for unvaccinated? I plan to attend the Kracken game this month, if it is not postponed. Will wear my N95 and not take it off. I understand beer sales are important source of revenue. But that is how I assess the risk. Will reconsider taking my 70+ parents there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VegasCanuck Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I'm going to assume that the game is going ahead, and that we're not looking at shutting down the team for a few games. LET'S BE POSITIVE! Canucks are going to win 5 - 2, Pettersson with a breakout game, 3 goals, 1 assist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure of the validity of their statement, I just find it funny people are saying "the virus doesn't care about x & y", ignoring the "z" part of that person's comment, which was addressing what the virus does "care about". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ALWAYS positive, even when I'm tasering someone because they came within 6 feet! Helpful hint, you can attach a taser to the end of a hockey stick, so you don't have to risk getting too close.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works great in long checkout lines. Just cough lots and tell people, I just can't shake this cough since I got back from South Africa.
