might even need frequent boosters too unless it's completely eradicated

I'm thinking he's not even sick, he's just pretending he has it, so he can laugh about recovering quickly thx to his pills

That's honestly what I think Brandon Schaub is doing (he's a Joe Rogan toadie/failed MMA fighter who is now a podcaster) He has been one of the more outspoken Coronavirus deniers. Now he says he has it, and is going on bike rides out in public and tweeting about how he felt fine after 2 days. I think he'll be even more obnoxious once he's "recovered"

I don't listen to him but a lot of people do

Remember when we had people in here saying everyone should follow Sweden's lead, because "the economy"

Anyone who thinks the cons would have done just as good of a job as the liberals when it comes to covid-19.

Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer was seen at a departure gate at Toronto's Pearson Airport today without a mask on — an apparent contravention of the rules that apply to all travellers passing through the terminal.

The airport's website stipulates that "all passengers and airport employees" must wear a mask or a face covering "at all times." The mandatory mask rule has been in place since June 1 to stop the spread of COVID-19 among the travelling public.

"This includes the pre- and post-security screening areas of the terminals, parking facilities, people mover train, sidewalks/curbs outside the terminals and other outdoor public areas," the airport rules say.

There are exceptions for people under the age of two, travellers who are unable to remove a face covering without assistance and for people who have trouble breathing. Masks are not required for travellers dining at food and beverage locations.

Distancing appears to be adequate, at least between Scheer and others. The two guys opposite him are only one seat apart from each other. That said, it sets a bad example and, as a leader, he should abide by the rules.

I don’t think this is proof that the conservatives would’ve been any better/worse. Scheer is a douche, though, and I have no idea how he’s still party leader almost a year after losing the election plus the scandals he’s been involved in since.

masks are mandatory at the airport. He can't even follow basic rules.

RS sponsor hit with covid.

Precisely.

I'm surprised they haven't ended these clubs. All (?) community transmission since reopening has been from strip clubs. The latest reported today is from Hotel Belmont bar & nightclub.

A Florida teenager who died of complications from COVID-19 attended a large church party without a mask just a few weeks earlier, then took unproven drugs touted by U.S. President Donald Trump before her parents brought her to a hospital, according to a newly-released medical examiner’s report.

Carsyn Leigh Davis, 17, died on June 23 after a lifetime of battling various medical challenges, including cancer and a rare autoimmune disorder that contributed to her death, according to the Miami-Dade County medical examiner’s report. The girl was the youngest person to die of the coronavirus in her county at the time, and her death triggered an outpouring of sympathy and prayers for her family.

Like Chris Cuomo, except his story was how he nearly died in isolation. Except he was out in public and fine

I guess he'd be the only one who can truly judge... But really I was just being hyperbolic to be silly. He made a great career of defeating Cro Cop, but went 2-4, getting demolished 3 times after that, and people had to tell him he had to stop before being permanently damaged, soo... Like I said, it's up to him to decide whether he failed, or if instead he went out on his own terms! Maybe we would have been surprised if he'd continued, eventually challenging prime Cain Velasquez.

Dunno how the DTES hasn’t exploded in cases or it’s just a indicator on asymptomatic transmission

Drove down there today for the first time in months and it’s worse than I’ve ever seen it.

SkinnyPupp 07-07-2020 10:38 PM

New local outbreaks are happening in Hong Kong, for the first time in 3 weeks. One tied to a restaurant in kwun tong (actually I ate there last year some time) that has at least 9 people tied to it.

Also found out that a piano teacher has it, so depending on how many homes she visited, it could have spread quite a bit. My wife's co-worker lives in the building of one of her clients. :heckno:

Keep wearing masks! It's not even close to thinking about not wearing a mask until... possibly never!

Traveller from U.S. tests positive for COVID-19

A man travelling from the United States who entered Nova Scotia last month tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday, the provincial Health Department said.

The man, who entered Canada on June 26, has been linked to three cases of COVID-19 on Prince Edward Island. (Initially the man was described as from the United States. It was later revealed he was a foreign national not from the U.S. who was studying in P.E.I.)

The government there has said a P.E.I. resident who visited Nova Scotia had been in close contact with someone who had recently travelled from the United States.
