TORONTO SUN | EDITORIAL: It's time for Canadians to just say no
https://smartcdn.prod.postmedia.digi...=423&type=webp Governments across Canada have announced the return of various COVID-19 restrictions, this time to fight what appears to be the more transmissible Omicron variant. Taken individually, one can argue these provisions are quite reasonable. For example, the Ontario government will now reduce the capacity limits for large gatherings such as concerts and NHL games to only 50% attendance. That’s not too bad, is it? The problem though is that we are now inching ourselves closer and closer to a broader lockdown of society. It’s something we must remain on guard against. There’s been a great deal of talk for many months about learning to live with COVID and acknowledging when the virus has become endemic. If that doesn’t happen now, when will it happen? The vast majority of Canadians have been vaccinated, and older and high-risk persons are already well on their way to receiving booster shots. Meanwhile, even though the Omicron variant is considered more transmissible, all indications are that it is also milder. Nobody serious seems to be disputing that fact. The truth is that governments are just concerned that even a milder variant can overwhelm the hospitals with vulnerable people if it does spread that much more. That is the primary motivation for any and all new restrictions. We appreciate those concerns. But the days of telling regular Canadians that it is somehow their responsibility to put their lives on pause — and suffer the very real harms that come with it — to protect the hospitals are over. A sizeable percentage of our tax dollars go to the Canadian health-care system. There are people paid big money to manage the system. It’s their job to protect the hospitals, not everyone else’s. We echo the sentiments from a recent National Post editorial, which argued: “Any advice to governments to shutter businesses or schools as a means of controlling the spread of the virus should be ignored, full stop.” Canadians need to make their voices heard and demand better. They need to just say no — and make it clear that they simply won’t tolerate having their lives micromanaged yet again. That ship has sailed. Life must go on. https://torontosun.com/opinion/edito...to-just-say-no |

I want to underscore one point in the presentations. In the published results of the 2 months study (that’s right only 2 months) Pfizer used Relative Risk Reduction to assert that the vaccine provided 95% protection. Let me explain. In the vaccine group 8 out of 18,198 were reported to have gotten Covid or .04% In the placebo group 162 were reported to have gotten Covid out of 18, 325 or .88% both groups showing very insignificant numbers. However, what Pfizer did using the Relative risk Reduction calculation allowed it to say the vaccine reduced the chance of Covid from .88% down to .04% or a 95% decrease, If they would have been honest and not concerned about profits over people’s lives they would have used Absolute Risk Reduction for their trial conclusion. In that case the benefit of getting vaccinated would have been less than 1%. Here’s the math: .88% for the Placebo group - .04% for the vaccinated group = .84% That’s right there is less than a 1% benefit from getting the vaccine rather than deciding to tend to your own health. How many people would have chosen the vaccine if they knew the benefit were only 1%? :2 cents: |

Lock downs worked great with Alpha and Delta and everything in between it was just a matter of how much value your country placed on human life.
However with Omicron they won't achieve zip and are only useful for individuals that need to be isolated. Basically we're dealing with a new virus, that's far mutated from earlier strains. So throw out everything that's pre Nov 2021, that's now history. Monoclonal antibodies that work should be reserved for kids who get sick and adults especially the unvaccinated told to die in the corner until we can make more. Everyone gets Omicron and we hope after that Covid settles to a endemic, but we better prey our Governments are planning and preparing for Omicron2 being a variant of high consequence. I'd much rather be here in two years bitching about how much money we blew over how many lives we lost, because we didn't spend the money. N95 up, and delay your infection till after the surge. |

Return of the curfew and end of private gatherings in Quebec
Quebec will impose several important measures to slow the progression of the Omicron variant: curfews starting Friday, return to class postponed, end of private gatherings, closure of dining rooms in restaurants and non-essential businesses closed on Sundays. Prime Minister François Legault made the announcement during a press briefing on Thursday at 24 hours before the New Year's festivities. Rather than coming together, Quebecers will therefore have to celebrate the New Year with their family bubble. As of Friday, 5 p.m., only members of the same family can be inside a residence. An exception will be allowed for a single person, as well as his children. A curfew will also come into effect from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. People who travel during these hours will have to demonstrate that they are doing so "to benefit from health care, for humanitarian reasons or to carry out work considered a priority". Otherwise, they face a fine ranging from $ 1,000 to $ 6,000. This is the second year in a row that Quebec has been placed under curfew after the holidays. Last year, however, the driving ban began at 8 p.m. School At primary and secondary level, the start of the school year is postponed to January 17. In the meantime, education will be done remotely, if possible ”, and school daycare services will remain open for the children of essential workers. Bad news for restaurants, which have experienced their share of closures since the start of the pandemic: they will have to close their dining rooms. Deliveries and take out orders will remain available. Much like in another era, non-essential businesses will also have to close on Sundays. However, certain businesses, such as convenience stores, gas stations and pharmacies, will remain open. Places of worship will also have to close their doors until further notice. Only funerals will be permitted, with a maximum of 25 people present. Sports and outdoor events Indoor sports are also suspended, except those practiced alone, in pairs or between members of the same residence. In ski centers, the chalets will be open only for warming up or using the sanitary facilities. It will not be possible to eat there, but take out orders will remain available. It will also be forbidden to consume food in the snowmobile relays. Again, the facilities will be able to offer take-out meals. The news is better for outdoor events: they are still allowed, with a maximum of 250 participants. Another new peak François Legault announces that Quebec recorded more than 16,000 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday. The number of Quebecers with the virus could be underestimated, due to rapid screening tests carried out in homes in the province. More details to come ... https://www.journaldemontreal.com/20...-point-a-17h-1 TRUST THE SCIENCE :321GFY ........... JUST TAKE THE #3 JAB'SSSSSS :disgust:disgust:disgust |

In quebec they have make the mistake to THREATENING all nurse to force them to get that shit vaccine. guess whats happen ? Nurse have quit in Mass...... result not enough staff to run those hospital..... guess what else ? Now government claiming hospital are full..... BIG LIE..... they are not fulll they have not enough staff to run the hospital there is why all this BS......... :2 cents: |
Quote:
So whatever the nurse situation (fewer than 10% quit, and where fully replaced but why talk truth to a QAnon nut job?) the fact of the matter is that no room for new patients in hospitals is an imminent reality. Debate that all you want, the fact is the fact - if you have *any* health issue or accident, you won't get help in Quebec potentially within a few days. To any sane (non meth-head) thinking person, that situation demands an urgent response. Since the hospital collapse is directly a result of exploding Covid cases, the limitations on spreading events is in order. |
@Idigmygirls I will welcome you with open arms at anytime when you will have enough of the BS. :liebe028:

Toronto Sun EDITORIAL: Drug companies aren't saints
https://smartcdn.gprod.postmedia.dig...=423&type=webp While COVID vaccines have been widely praised by many governments that have bought them, a healthy skepticism about the companies that produce them is warranted. All vaccines used in Canada have been approved by health and government authorities, but obviously the drug manufacturers aren’t doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. They are profiting from taxpayers and cannot be sued for serious adverse side effects their vaccines may cause. That’s because they are indemnified by the federal government from liability, a standard, widely-used practice which predates COVID vaccines. People who have life-altering adverse reactions to vaccines — while rare — have to apply to a recently created federal program for compensation. The drug companies Ottawa contracted with to supply Canadians with millions of doses of COVID vaccines have been previously involved in many cases of wrongdoing. In 2009, Pfizer pled guilty to violating the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, and agreed to pay $2.3 billion in fines in what the U.S. Justice Department described at the time as the largest health care fraud settlement in history for misbranding and illegally promoting four drugs under the civil False Claims Act — Bextra, an anti-inflammatory; Geodon, an anti-psychotic; Zyvox, an antibiotic and Lyrica, an anti-epileptic drug. Pfizer was also accused of paying kickbacks to health care providers to induce them to prescribe its drugs and promoting Bextra for off-label uses and dosages the U.S. Food and Drug Administration hadn’t approved for safety reasons. AstraZeneca, contracted by the federal government to supply up to 20 million COVID-19 doses, is no longer being used in Canada. In 2010 it paid a $520 million fine imposed by the U.S. Justice Department to resolve allegations it had illegally marketed the anti-psychotic drug Seroquel for off-label uses not approved as safe and effective by the FDA. Johnson & Johnson — contracted by the federal government to provide up to 38 million doses of its one-dose vaccine — paid $2.2 billion in 2013 to resolve U.S. Justice Department investigations of kickbacks to doctors and pharmacists arising from its sale of Risperdal, Invega and Natrecor, including promoting the drugs for uses not approved as safe and effective by the FDA. https://torontosun.com/opinion/edito...s-arent-saints |
GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau and Ford governments fuelled vaccine hesitancy
The vaccine hesitant have every right to feel betrayed https://smartcdn.gprod.postmedia.dig...=423&type=webp Government actions throughout the pandemic have contributed to vaccine hesitancy, writes Lorrie Goldstein. The unseemly rush by governments to vilify Canadians refusing to be vaccinated as the root of all evil ignores the fact government actions throughout the pandemic have contributed to vaccine hesitancy. To begin with, it is a myth to claim everyone who refuses to be vaccinated is irresponsible, reckless, racist, misogynist, throws stones at the prime minister or demonstrates outside hospitals. As Abacus Data pollster Bruce Anderson wrote in Maclean’s in August after surveying 30,000 adult Canadians on their attitudes toward vaccines, the “typical ‘vaccine hesitant’ person is a 42-year-old woman who votes Liberal.” Anderson estimated 2.1 million people — 7% of adult Canadians — were hesitant to be vaccinated, as opposed to an equal number who refuse to be vaccinated and will not change their minds no matter what. “The hesitant are not conspiracy theorists,” Anderson wrote. “They aren’t angry at the world. They don’t think COVID-19 is a hoax. They aren’t radicals of the left or the right — 61% of them say they are on the centre of the spectrum. Two-thirds have post-secondary education. “About half (46%) live in Ontario and well over half (59%) are women. A quarter were born outside Canada. Their average age is 42 … If they were voting in a federal election today, 35% would vote Liberal, 25% Conservative, 17% NDP, 9% Green. “However, compared to the vaccinated, they don’t have a lot of trust in government. They also try to avoid prescriptions, dislike putting anything unnatural in their bodies and 83% say they are reluctant to take any vaccines. Most worry that COVID-19 vaccines haven’t really been tested for a long time.” Given those findings, let’s examine how government actions during the pandemic have undoubtedly contributed to vaccine hesitancy. Before reversing their positions, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Ontario Premier Doug Ford adamantly opposed vaccine passports, saying they would be divisive to society. With the Trudeau government now decreeing workers who lose their jobs because of vaccine mandates will not be eligible for employment insurance — even if they had agreed to be tested every day — the vaccine hesitant have every right to feel betrayed. Then there is the issue of how governments changed their positions on pandemic protocols, often almost overnight, with little or no explanation for the reasons. True, some of this occurred because medical understanding of COVID-19 changed over time. But when the Public Health Agency of Canada originally claimed mask wearing could be less safe than not wearing them before reversing itself, we now know PHAC took that position amid a severe shortage of masks, because the federal and provincial governments had failed to maintain adequate stockpiles of personal protection equipment despite a decade of official warnings to do so. We also know while the federal government publicly insisted for months that restricting air travel, imposing border controls and mandatory quarantines wouldn’t control the spread of COVID-19 — before reversing itself on these issues — federal officials were privately advising the government it didn’t have the resources to enforce mandatory quarantines and similar measures. Failing to be open, honest and transparent with the public has obviously contributed to vaccine hesitancy. Decisions by the Ford government in Ontario to allow big box stores to remain open to in-person shopping while denying this to small businesses, and later allowing increased capacity limits for Scotiabank Arena and Rogers Centre — including eating and drinking during games — while continuing to enforce social distancing requirements for restaurants reinforced the belief big business was calling the shots with the government. Ontario’s ill-advised decision to allow police to question anyone about where they were going to determine if they had a legitimate reason for being outside — hastily withdrawn after police forces said they wouldn’t enforce it — fed into the belief of those already suspicious of governments that they were using the pandemic as an excuse to increase arbitrary powers. Inconsistent messaging on vaccines — repeated statements from Trudeau, premiers and public health officials that “the best vaccine for you to take is the very first one offered to you,” followed by the National Advisory Committee on Immunization declaring that no, actually Pfizer and Moderna were preferred to AstraZeneca — obviously contributed to vaccine hesitancy. Ditto the Trudeau government’s original plan to concoct a deal with China to provide vaccines to Canada — when Canadians had good reasons to be suspicious of China’s actions throughout the pandemic on a number of fronts — undoubtedly fuelled the vaccine hesitant’s distrust of government. https://torontosun.com/opinion/golds...ation_with_ads |
