bishopshodan Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 1 minute ago, VegasCanuck said: We can hope for that, but there were a couple of things that made Spanish Flu easier to contain. #1 of those was air travel (and car travel), was really uncommon in 1918, it had to get on a boat with someone to move around. By the time they sequence a new variant, it's already spread around the world. You're right about travel. However, what's weird about the Spanish flu is that the first cases were reported in Boston and Bombay on the same day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virus doesn't give a sh!t what we do or what we think and that's what determines what happens." To a comment that also included the statement: "Plus no deaths yet from omni so that's gotta matter right?" To me, that's ignoring that part of their comment. You may want to check the names on those quotes again. My actual response are there and included that there is 1 death attributed to Omicron so far.

VegasCanuck Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 1 minute ago, Jester13 said: I doubt they'll shut it all down and not allow fans simply because people are getting sick, when they're not getting deathly ill like people were prior to the vaccines. Sutter is feeling what he is because the team got super sick last year being unvaccinated. Will the NHL take extra precautions? Likely, yes. But there's a good chance it won't be extreme like seasons prior. I agree, it's unlikely that we will see full shutdowns. Most people vaccinated, have mild symptoms, but they can still pass it. I think we'll probably see the following: #1, I think the players will probably opt out of the Olympics due to risk factor as well as China's 5 week quarantine. #2, The NHL will leave the end of the NHL season targeted as the same as it is now, end of April, with the extra 3 weeks being used to handle a series of 2 - 3 game postponements.

Or especially what the politicians say. Was solely referring to this one comment of yours. Care to elaborate? If politicians listened to and followed advice from the experts wed likely be out of this already 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliboy Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) Out of an abundance of caution, they should probably shut it down for a couple of days, just to see how many are infected! Edited December 14, 2021 by aliboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbbyNux Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 At least we might have the world juniors. What was the point of the passports if this still goes on? We shut out the unvacced from all these places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Just now, 'NucK™ said: Yeah that was my bad.. I really struggle with the quoting feature on this site... you did seem to reaffirm what @stawns had said with you reply to his comment which WAS ignoring much of what the previous poster said Well, my comment was really that politicians shouldn't be trusted here in that they have shown again and again throughout this pandemic that they don't really understand the science and many will do what is politically expedient over what is good public safety policy. The scientists are being blamed for the politicians misinterpretations and inability to admit when they are wrong or just in over their heads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimito Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Probably best to post pone the game. Nux depleted on D already. Sucks for the fans with tix. But I'm thinking selfishly for team success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say this like it's a bad thing. Why are you politicizing Henry? Lmfao. What's your angle with this? She's just a doctor in charge of making recommendations. Just like any human, she can be wrong. But given how BC has been largely spared the covid problems elsewhere, I think it's pretty stupid to say she handled covid poorly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DrJockitch Posted December 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2021 I am going to cut my COVID discussions in this thread here. Just not worth going down this road again. Get vaccinated, wear a mask in public and don't ba an a-hole to everyone who disagrees with you and we can get through this. 4 3 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) You can blame Carolina and Boston for the lack of COVID prevention. Cassidy is COVID protocol’d, the rest of the staff weren’t wearing masks, players probably had COVID in them. Carolina comes in, Aho doesn’t play due to being sick, Carolina staff not wearing any masks to prevent COVID from spreading further. Now we’re infected. Edit: Marchand now COVID protocol’d. Proves my point. Edited December 14, 2021 by Odd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
