Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

Yep, I agree, front line workers are working themselves into a state of exhaustion going through hoops to protect the rest of us. Washing our hands for twenty SECONDS ten times a day is a very small price to pay. That's three minutes of our time basically. All to ensure not getting sick.
I wash my hands iin my morning shower and again if am cooking . Works for me .

Come now front line workers . We don’t have full hospitals , our emergency wards are virtually empty . No elective surgeries being performed . Where are these front line workers being run ragged ?

A sensible person can easily see that the non critical conditions you report are that because people have been giving it "their all" to prevent things getting out of control.

Re: COVIDD-19 'Pandemic'

CTV is reporting that a portable c-19 test has been created and will be available SAP. A company in Ottawa did this. They already have requests from other nations but are declining as CDA comes first.
this test has a three hr turn around for results.
Not too shabby folks.

Look back a few pages you will find a detailed article on this

Well I see we have some 600 odd active cases here in B.C. not all requiring hospitalization . Yes the health professionals must be swamped .

Kenney to use tests, medications from 'peer' countries, won't wait for Health Canada to play 'catch up'

I see the West is still satisfied with how Ottawa is handling things /s


Yabut, at least tater tot is talking to the media and giving THE SAME EXACT MESSAGE each and every day for the last month or 2 (actually seems like years at this point).


So, JT has really sprung into action on this file

When was the last time every patient was considered "yellow gown" protocol?

What the difference between blue and yellow you ask?

A patient in a yellow gown is an infectious disease carrier.
