Look at the ****king idiot calling smart people morons.
You are almost as stupid as the leftards. I never said Covid19 is not real dipshit. I said it is overblown.
When you are not associating with sick people you will not catch a virus yourself, therefor you can not transmit it. We worked all through this and not a single one of us or any of our families nor anyone in the community we worked in got sick.
Know none either , have a large family and far to many friends .

A spike can flare up in such short time..........Wonder how the rebels would like to be back in total shut down.It could happen. and enforced by the cops or military. again.....they must love playing roulette with people lives. They must be following the book of Trump. (the book where all rules are t be ignored........unless it suits them) until things get out of control......and he calls in the military.
Keep your surf smell to yourself and we will all be fine .

Best head for the hills . I am heading up into the Kooteneys this summer . Wanted to go the cariboo but times change and plans follow .


No, best just to stay home, practice social distancing and wear the mask when you can't maintain the distance. All seems fairly simple to me, when in doubt just refer to Dr. Henry!

The problem is no one in the world with the exception of a monk confined to a monastery knows FOR SURE they don't have it.
I'd say it's just good sense to be overcautious with a new, poorly understood disease. As our understanding of it improves, and our techniques for fighting it improve, we'll back off the blanket measures.

It's kinda like a school-shooter "lockdown." Overreact for maximum safety, then adjust as the situation becomes more clear.

Have not stayed home nor wore a mask for the first four or five months of this catastrophe, why would I start now . The ferries were filled to overflowing yesterday and Sunday , the highways are full of recreational vehicles , campsites and golf courses full . Go ahead stay home , you will be alone .

It baffles me why you would continue to discredit a sensible poster. Even if she's not always right, she's logical.
I always referred to her as ocean breeze until she called me a pig . She like others get what they give . I disagree with most every position you take , yet never call you names or personally insult you , why is that ?

I'm not sure why you would disagree with a position that is almost always based on numbers that are as plain as the nose on your face! :)

Very simple, I always had fire insurance on my house, which I've never had reason to use in 50 years, but would I quit having coverage now? No bloody way! Are you able to understand that?

So you're one of those people who "whistle past the grave yard"?

Especially with precautions that aren't a hassle to follow!

I was at Sooke Regional Park and the Sooke River Pot Holes yesterday , the park was completely full with all parking spaces for five kilometres taken , the weather was beautiful and they water refreshing , should I have stayed home ? Would it have made a difference ?

When my time comes , my time comes , in the meanwhile I will continue to enjoy life and the freedoms it provides . Everyday I am one step closer to that final demise and don’t intend to waste what’s left .

Likely no one will ever know. If you had stayed at home you could rest assured you didn't infect any one. Had you have worn a mask, you can be fairly sure you didn't infect anyone. If you didn't wear the mask you have no way of knowing. How is that crowd at Sooke Pot Holes any different from the crowd in Kelowna who infected all kinds of people? :)

Who really cares , when your time is up it is up , mine yours and all others . Some of die earlier and later then others .Best to enjoy each moment as if it is your last . The sun is shining the birds are chirping and the flowers are blooming. The world is not coming to an end , and if it is , you staying cooped up in your nest will not change anything .
