Hammer Down

[GDR]

We would not have to close business if everyone behaved but some just can't do it. I don't know if there are any measures that will stop the spread but we may slow it until there is a vaccine.

Some dumb ass with a positive case went into the obstetrics ward at the Calgary Foothills, had 2 times he would have had to lie about his status. Last I heard 4 staff have been infected from this, who knows how many patients may have been infected.

I beleive a lot of the conspiracy theorist and anti maskers on agriville deep down are smarter than they appear sometimes and trust they would all do the right things but the problem is all the rhetoric that gets posted and then a certain segment believes it and then here we are. And we wouldn't have to be if the morons just used their heads last spring.

Yes Alberta not looking so good.

You cannot count on everyone doing the right thing. That is why the rest of us pay for it.

Chuck the rock you crawled out from under wants you back.

Forage, you old socialist.

Yea I almost died but the hospital's arent full of covid. Wake up buddy or take another hit on the old bong.

Come on you socialist fools wake up.

Universal Health care in Canada is a socialist program, you took advantage of and it, and it saved your life. Therefore, you would be classified as a hypocrite and a socialist.

Didn't you work for the Sk NDP and fly their banner just a few years ago, Golden Spoon Boy !

CTV stated other other night that;

10,947 people have died, with their deaths tied to Covid, and

10,781 of the people which have died were Long Term Care Home people!

only,,, 166 Canadians were not Long term Care Home people.

That is astonishing,,, our own governments are destroying our economies and burdening our future offspring with debt, that will last generations.


Here's Sandy with the CTV news. The part referenced above occurs starting at 3:52.

Kinda of mind blowing that it’s that one sided. Never realized it was that high

Forage I have never voted NDP in my entire life.

But thanks for our socialist medical system.

Commies like you sit in your basement and bitch about wealth others have. Its a sickness, why not get off your ass and actually do something about it.

Mother earth will not protect you till the worms eat you.

It’s not like there is any choice but the socialist Medicare. Also kind of a odd to say” he took advantage of it”. Just how how did he do that?

Do you actualy believe anyone who may believe in some social programs have no wealth.there is a huge gap between the tree huggers and the world is flat bible thumpers.

Also mind blowing, is how a certain segment ignores those numbers as well!

Does anyone have a link to any government data that has the "source of infection" broken down? Did a real quick look through the Alberta data, and can't seem to find it...

The recent updates by Albertas CMOH have really stressed the need to avoid in home gatherings, and unregulated social settings over and over again.

If it turns out that most of the new infections are taking place outside of bars, restaurants, and shopping centers, but rather inside homes, and at social gatherings like birthdays, anniversary's, weddings, and funerals, I really don't see the need to lock small business down...

Perhaps it could even be counterproductive? If you cannot meet friends or family in a controlled setting like a bar or restaurant where things are regularly sanitized, social distancing is enforced, food is not communal, and drinks are mixed in a sanitary fashion, then you are likely to do so in a home setting. I think it's fair to say that SERIOUS covid fatigue is setting in, but provided that government provides appropriate avenues for social creatures to socialize, we can avoid driving it underground...

It would also seem that we deserve whatever we end up getting... The sheer stupidity of individuals certainly does not inspire confidence in the future of mankind.

Take for instance a very local event...

Individual A has an 80th birthday party. "A" likely doesnt plan anything out, but a number of individuals do, and so Individual "B", the son of "A" comes out from a designated hotspot in Alberta (Calgary) all the while feeling unwell, to an area that had up and until now ZERO cases.

"B" attends said birthday party where he proceeds to infect his father "A", his sibling's wife "C", his daughter in law "D", and "D"'s mother "E".

"A" ends up in hospital after collapsing at home from respiratory distress, "C" works in the health care industry and attends work as normal, perhaps suffering symptoms, but unsure. "D" has a small child and is pregnant with another. "C"s potential exposure in a health setting means mandatory testing for all personnel in the hospital as well as LTC patients who are attached to the hospital.

E's husband is fairly active in the community and attends numerous small functions and outings. Possibly exposing numerous individuals. C is likely the most dangerous vector!

B in their right mind should NEVER have left a covid hotspot.
C should have never reported to work

Two people were careless with the guidelines... the entire community will pay the price...
