    Incorrect.

    He didn't say 2 percent. He said 0.2% (or one-fifth of one percent ).

    Those 40 guys could just be very lucky as it has not hit their network yet? Or maybe they all contracted it and didn't have any symptoms. Who knows for sure without adequate testing? I have friends who have not been impacted by Covid at all and I have others that have had families decimated. Neither of them are wrong or right, it's just their perspective. I saw for myself when I was in the hospital, healthy people going code blue and dying by the dozens. So, I didn't need to be convinced that this is a deadly virus. I also don't think I'm invincible. So, I limited my risk until I got vaccinated. Other people may feel it's best to get it and get over it. Or they will never get in contact with someone that has it? Their perspective is just as good as mine. But we should all empathize with people who have had to endure this.

    Canada was allowing up to 250 people to go to a movie theater at one point, while still limiting funerals to a max of 10 people... Poor choice...

    Isn't this just logical? Or living in freedom? If U choose to ignore facts and experts, U get what U deserve? Simple.

    Yup..250 people were allowed into a Movie theatre where I live but you were not allowed to eat popcorn.

    I’m living with an 8pm curfew for the last 2 months they gave us a break last week and upped it to 9:30, all this while New Zealand Australia and Israel are practically back to normal from what I see.

    16 year old kid just died from covid here youngest ever here and all over the fucckin news.

    Breakdown in Quebec
    ~~

    Trudeau was elected because of name and GQ image. Really not that bright unlike his father.
    Biden, middling career politician teetering on total dementia, was elected
    because of Trump hatred and corrupt media.

    How do they explain that number? Again it is the most vulnerable we should be protecting. Young people should not be afraid to leave their basement.
    The people sending the message know that we don't know shit and will believe everything they tell us. It will be used to their advantage.

    If you have variant 1 you must isolate at home for 14 days.

    If you have variant 2 you must isolate in a hotel for 21 days alone.

    If you have variant 3 you must isolate 10 days + 7 days.

    These rules are stupid as F. Hinshaw and crew in Alberta could not make this more difficult if they tried.

    sounds like just another excuse for government to have more power. They are thinking long term.
