The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.
In BC our government sticks to their guns and blames the healthcare workers for the cancellations and wait times.
It won't be long now until someone has lost job, friends, family, and home, because of these mandates and divisive narratives.....that person with nothing left to lose is a pretty dangerous individual, and that type of person might just point themselves in the direction of the people who are making the decisions.
At some point we're going to be seeing images of dead bodies on Global and CBC.....not a state of society that I ever wanted to live in.
Given the urgent and immediate needs of the health-care system, under the authority of The Emergency Planning Act and the declaration of emergency, the premier has issued a minister’s order reinstating the previously negotiated LOU among the SHA, affiliates and unions,” the news release added.
Minister’s Order
The Minister’s Order relies on sections 18 and 18.1 of The Emergency Planning Act to enforce the emergency declaration. Under the header “Powers of minister in an emergency,” section 18.1 contains 15 clauses that allow a minister to make decisions that border on marital law.
…which, among other things, allows them to...
J) Authorize the entry into any building or on any land, without warrant, by any person while implementing an emergency plan
Also it appears they are putting together a SWAT ( ) team.
An enforcement team is being set up by the Ministry of Health to help public health inspectors regulate "masking non-compliance complaints" and "vaccination non-compliance complaints from businesses or the public," Opondo said.
The team is "a group of retired police officers who are really going to assist us, particularly where we are short in terms of public health inspectors," he said.
Apparently they're also building themselves a "quarantine camp"....
In addition to the enforcement team, the health authority is also preparing to revive a "secure isolation site" at Saskatchewan Hospital in North Battleford, Opondo said.
I'm starting to wonder if the vaccines actually do nothing more than exactly jack shit.
“Most of the guys got through their symptoms without any lingering effects, which is what you hope for with the vaccine...”
15 people.
1 dead.
Some with lingering effects.
Pre-vaccine I wonder if the results would have been any different. I mean 6.67% mortality in that group, and that was about the same rate of hospitalization pre vaccine iirc.
The media and government are running around talking about how this vaccine is like 95% effective and preventing severe disease and hospitalization. Pretty sure that's about the same percentage chance you have without a vaccine (unless we're talking over 70 years of age).
So the vax does what exactly
Edit:
It's not exactly nailed down but it is between 1 and 5 percent of Covid cases require hospitalization.
Another study.....
The overall IHR was 2.1% and varied more by age than by race or sex. Infection-hospitalization ratio estimates ranged from 0.4% for those younger than 40 years to 9.2% for those older than 60 years. Hospitalization rates based on case counts overestimated the IHR by a factor of 10, but this overestimation differed by demographic groups, especially age.
