Over done, the rediculous lockdown has prevented people from getting the covid -19 virus, which could of put them in hospitals (and made them overcrowded).
It is all about saving lives and Buying time to save those lives
first off, I'm not laughing at the deaths in the old folks homes or LT care
I'm pointing out the incompetence of our so called "experts" "heroes" who couldn't even manage to prevent the obvious, one of the token "experts' was on CTV months ago, actually saying that, "that they couldn't have predicted all the deaths in old people with underlying conditions stuck in a confined space" expert in infectious disease, you can't make that up
facts are facts, this virus isn't killing everyone, it's killing old people, those over 65, 70, mainly, but most deaths are over 65, sorry but those are the facts
the others who are dying are people with underlying issues, again, who are really the main groups who should be taking precautions, who should have been prioritized from the beginning
and the "overcrowded" hospitals never happened, it didn't happen in countries where there are civilized democracies either ( you can't count the US, it's system isn't a healthcare system, it's a market place/business)
Sweden didn't lockdown, it's hospitals were never overcrowded, it's deaths have flatlined, remember the "experts" curve models, large number of deaths without lockdown, same end point as lockdown, (look at Que's numbers, they're worse than Sweden, less people, Que locked down) Swedens still got cases, but not outrageous
which is what is happening in Canada, every large province, if you look at it rationally, which isn't happening
remember the R value? anyone mention it lately? lol
8 out of 10? lol
Sweden's situation, a fact, all it took was people to act civilized, like adults
the hospital, heroes have had plenty of time to ramp up our ability to handle a surge, have they?
any evidence? not according to the news, hospitals are back to normal numbers, with no excess capacity for the fall
lockdowns don't work, they just delay reality
saving lives, yes, the moronic delusion of grandeur
"if we can only save just one life"
who cares that you caused 100X the early deaths of others
you think they aren't cutting yrs off others lives?
people have already died due to lack of health care
some people's quality of life has deteriorated significantly
or don't you believe the "experts" who keep telling us the poorer you are, the less/more likely you are..... fill in the blank with whatever you want
there are 37 million people in Canada, 9,163 dead, 82% are LT/Old Folks
Que 5,774, which at one point it was 9 our of 10 in LT/Old Folks
Ont 2,813
in Edm we have one home which is 15% of those dead alone, there's another in Calgary with similar numbers, 6 months later they're still dying, even with masks, face shields, gowns, restricted visits, ect......
average age in the 80's for deaths
average age of life expectancy in Canada same, early 80's
saving lives, right?
of people who have, for a lack of a better term, unfortunately already got one foot in the grave, which even with the "heroes" are still dying, at a reduced clip, but nonetheless dying
facts, why go by facts when you have irrational emotions
lets ban guns that look scary too, oh wait we did that, but gun deaths are still up and so are shootings in Toronto
recent PR stunt by TO cops, 6 guns, 6 prohibited, one can't say, none on the Sock Models list
again, facts, who needs em!
total cases 135K recovered 119K
if the lock down was the reason for saved lives, which it isn't, because if it was, people should be dying at a higher rate since most provinces have opened up
irrational emotional behaviour has been driving this from day one
Edm emergency Dr in the news the other day
said the ridiculous parents worrying about their kid getting covid going out for Halloween
"your kid has a better chance of being hit by a car"
you want reality, people die from the flu every yr, usually old people, people with underlying health conditions, not to mention the odd unfortunate child
WHERE THE FUCK WERE ALL THE IRRATIONAL EMOTIONAL CRIPPLES THEN?
WERE THEY TALKING ABOUT SHUTTING EVERYTHING DOWN?
WEARING MASKS TO PROTECT THE OLD?
STAYING HOME WITH THE SNIFFLES, COUGH, RUNNY NOSE?
KEEPING THEIR KIDS HOME TO PROTECT THEM?
DID THEY DO IT 20 YRS AGO DURING SARS? ANOTHER COVID?
NUMBERS, MATH, IT'S HARD
REALITY TOO, BUT WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM A SOCIETY WHERE TRUTH DOESN'T COUNT
FEELINGS ARE WHERE IT'S AT
THE DIFFERENCE THIS TIME, SOME IDIOT "EXPERT" TOLD THEM THEY HAVE A CHANCE OF DYING, TOO BAD MATH SAYS OTHERWISE, FOR MOST
HOW DO YOU LIKE MY SOCKS NOW? LOL
