ABNucksfan Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Well i stand corrected. AB not as good as BC. But having said that. Icus and hospitalizations are down in both provinces and I think this is knee jerk reactions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmaster Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 So this variant is weaker yet we have these measures coming down? Come on. It’s time we move on with life. This is NOT going away! Get your shots, mask up where needed and just live with it. Enough is enough 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been going to games and the people allowed in, are just the vaccinated, so why the extreme measures ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABNucksfan Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Knee jerk reactions… left need to grab whatever control they can before its too late. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slegr Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 BC govt is still trying to keep Covid #s steady, but it’s a losing battle when the new variant is catchier than a cold, and about as harmful as one. Half the population may need to quarantine by late January if they keep the same policies in place. Time for government to realize that if someone is fully vaxxed, we need to just live with this thing. My two cents, anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the PHO has the courage to label UBC the site of an outbreak situation, considering she has an appointment there as a Professor with the School of Population and Public Health? I don't think the lady lacks courage at all: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/05/world/canada/bonnie-henry-british-columbia-coronavirus.html " One day at her job at a clinic in San Diego, a man burst in with a gun, demanding to talk to someone. Dr. Henry stepped forward. “I said, ‘I’m somebody. Let’s talk,’” she recalled. “He burst into tears. He was in pain and distraught.” It turned out he was recovering from open-heart surgery and was unsure how he would pay the medical bills. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a stupid comment. Apparently the left is to blame for not wanting to stress a hospital system that's already been tipping near critical capacity for well over a year and a half? If that's what the left is standing for against the right, then I'm growing increasingly happy about my decision to switch teams. If you represent the right, the the right is a bunch of selfish whiners. Luckily, I born and raised in a right wing logging family. With most of my friends and family being right wing, I'm happy that it's your personal selfish view, not the right wing in general. You keep saying critical cases, ICUs, and the hospitals are ok. Where are you getting this information from? Because I feel very confident in my ability to say that in many hospitals in BC, you are misinformed. It's better then it has been, but it's increasing and we are entering the time the hospitals fill up on a good year. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming out of the third wave.those numbers were also.down .... by alot Then shortly after the 4th wave those numbers soared. Hospitalization and mortality rates lag behind Increased case numbers A few minor restrictions to prepare as we.start wave 5 is reasonable and responsible I hope and pray that the hospitalization and death rates continue to drop and at rhe end of the 6 weeks they are able to safely lift restrictions.
