Hey Walter- Are you going out of your way to try being an idiot? Are you trying to out perform Blackleaf?

Probably , but I might be contrary and die before it kills me .
Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
Living ten minutes from the NS border it's a pain in the behind, but not because of lack of 'free movement'.
Rather it's that both gas and grocery prices are cheaper in NS than in NB and many people in my area go to NS for those things. Without the cross border shopping, we're having to stay in town or go to Moncton. Sadly, a lot of people here don't have cars so they're stuck with the outrageous prices of local grocery.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'
Might the death toll from covid-19 be higher than the official fatalities attributed to it so far? Data emerging from the worst-hit places in Europe suggest so.
A common way to quantify deaths in a severe health crisis is to look at “excess mortality”: the total number of people who have passed away in an area, compared to usual. Journalists in Italy, Spain and France have started doing this.
EuroMOMO, a group of researchers from 24 countries, gives national weekly estimates of all deaths. But, for various reasons, that data cannot yet be directly compared to regional covid-19 fatalities. (For Italy, it aggregates a selection of cities.)
So local researchers and reporters are gathering data. In Italy
foresti
and Inve
have worked with mayors of small comunes in Bergamo province. They have found that, so far, “excess mortality” is double the official covid-19 death toll.
An article in El País showed a similar discrepancy in total deaths and covid-19 deaths for several regions in Spain, based on figures from the government’s health research centre.
And in France manach
has noticed that the covid-19 death toll in Haut-Rhin, the most affected department, is growing less quickly than the number of obituaries published in local newspapers.
There are many reasons why these discrepancies could exist. Data on total deaths and covid-19 deaths often come from different sources. Sometimes it takes a few days to establish the cause of death.
But the gap between official covid-19 deaths and total deaths could also represent people who died outside of hospitals (as seems likely in Bergamo), or who were killed by other diseases that might normally have been treated.
It may take several months before we know what explains this pattern. But at the very least, it seems like the grim death tolls we receive each day understate the damage that has already occurred.

About 10% of the outbreak in Ontario involves healthcare workers.
So with 10,000 cases nationwide we can factor in 1,000 less front line healthcare workers to deal with it.

I'm not putting up with a lockdown for another two years. We didn't even have this in WWII.

Made worse because of the lockdown.
The only way to develop a vaccine is to end lockdown and implement the British Government's original approach: herd immunity.
Vaccines don't eradicate viruses. There's a flu vaccine, but flu has not been eradicated. It's still here. The truth is that viruses mutate and become immune to vaccines, which is why the flu vaccine has to be changed every year.
Coronavirus isn't going away. It's here to stay.
