I, the Covidiot, will go about my life, relaxed and secured in the consequences of my actions. I even wear the "mask" that has been so effective on the common flue, yet failed to arrest the progress of Covid. And with much amusement I will watch people like you advocating and repeating the mistakes of the spring truly believing that "this time it will be different". And when the Covid comes back with the spring thaw, I will ask my doctor for some valium to prevent myself from dying from uncontrollable laughter when listening to the same people, offering the same "expertise".
Toronto in another lockdown. Are agencies in Toronto closing?
- Thread starter Jenesis
- Start date
I will tell you what I've posted numerous times on this board from the beginning.
Although a small percentage but a significant portion of people who are selfish COVIDIOTS are the cause of this.
Selfish COVIDIOT's who do not socially distance, who do not understand to not congregate in large groups outside of their social bubble, who do not understand the purpose of mask wearing and the fact that masks reduce the rate of transmission of the virus, who do not understand contact tracing is needed to limit to the spread of the Coronavirus, who do not keep proper hygiene are the cause of this.
If you do not follow one or more of those guidelines look yourself in the mirror and understand you are the reason behind what you are complaining about.
We no longer have the resources to go another way. There were few, very few voices in the spring that advocated to use the public funds tp protect the vulnerable segments of the population. I, I must proudly say, was among them- not that it mattered in the noise of panic and hyperbole. The result? The Covid swept through the LTC facilities and gave us the very scary death numbers. We went into lockdown without having ANY idea about the prevalence of Covid among the general population because we didn't test and on the basis of "what if". As in "what if covid cases overwhelm our hospitals?" How many field hospitals and temporary facilities could we have erected with 300 billion dollars that we blew on the wage subsidies? How many seniors facilities could we have isolated by paying the staff to stay on site or even go through the proper quarantine before entering? The solutions were and are out there, but the people who are in charge cannot change the course, anymore. There political and their professional reputations are now on the line. What's left of them, anyway.
Stop having bold font meltdowns dude, almost everybody is social distancing, wearing masks......etc.
The problem is the virus is highly contagious and airborne, and its gonna spread regardless of how many precautions we take
1,822 new cases today (although they are testing a lot more now): https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/covid-19-coronavirus-ontario-november-28-1.5820618
Approximately 3% of Toronto's population now has Covid-19

Are you calling the good Torontonians using the packed Keele bus Covidiots? Which guideline are they violating? Some Etobicoke asshole gets himself arrested for selling meat, yet Mr. Tory cannot find the time to address the full occupancy on his city's transit? Seen the rush hour, lately? Judging by the traffic, the "essential travel" rule seems to have a very flexible definition.
The problem remains the same today as it did early on in the virus, alot of misinformation being spread by COVIDIOTS and although a small percentage but a significant portion not following these easy to follow preventive measures, if everybody did their part we'd be better off than we are right now. Off you go to a thread to spread more misinformation about masks and shutdowns being ineffective preventive measures in the fight against the Coronavirus.
And this is what I think was behind the new cases explosion we had in August and September.
People thought by wearing masks they were safe, so they started cramming TTC buses and streetcars together.
We all saw how that worked out. Current masks people are wearing are uselesss, and thats how new cases exploded again
The problem with your "theory" is that covidiots were walking around Toronto before masks were made mandatory.
That number most likely has stayed constant.
So if it stayed constant how come new cases exploded after masks were made mandatory??
For the most logical answer see my previous post: https://terb.cc/xenforo/threads/tor...encies-in-toronto-closing.730898/post-6882694
Like a true COVIDIOT It didn't take too long to try and undermine the preventive measure of mask wearing. "Stable Genius" I tell you.
Please no more of your thinking and theories, all of your non factual theories have been wrong about COVID all along.

My point is that the powers that be has always known about the limitations of our healthcare system. After all, that was the major talking point for the last 40 years. The "hallway medicine", the outrageous wait times, the full ERs, the shortage of long term beds are not a news to any Ontarian. What makes me so very angry, is that they went into the shutdown knowing full well about it. The argument that the shutdown was to prevent the overloading just holds no water. Firstly because of the expected second wave and, most importantly, if a 500 cases can stress the system, you have to look to the emergency expansion of capabilities to address that. There are a lot(!) of people making fun of Trump about his handling of Covid. But, when New York wanted more capacity, they got it with in a week, including the portable hospitals and extra equipment. I won't even say anything about the vaccine development and approvals lest the tds crowd has a stroke- Covid is bad enough. But, our side made no move to look at other options, instead they castrated the private sector. And I think that they went that way because it was easier for the government bureaucracy.
Masks have kept the infections & death numbers down, but sadly they're not a cure all that can kill the vampiric murdering of covidiocy. When the pathogen killing masks that kill the flu, C-19, pneumonia, etc, come out we'll be closer to that & can name them the "silver bullet" masks ;
There's no need for lockdowns to be different. We already know they work. It's the idiots out there that are the variable as to whether or not we'll keep doing this over & over gain.
Stupid response. As per usual, you are all insults and zero substance.Like a true COVIDIOT It didn't take too long to try and undermine the preventive measure of mask wearing. "Stable Genius" I tell you.
Please no more of your thinking and theories, all of your non factual theories have been wrong about COVID all along.
But then thats why so many people dont like you and have you on ignore
Facepalm, indeed. The ratios may fluctuate on a short term basis, but to deny that, in general, more cases will lead to more deaths is idiotic, moronic, stupid, trumpian, totally illogical and denying reality.
However, knowing that you've been a trump supporter and thus suffering from tDS (https://terb.cc/xenforo/threads/the-proper-meaning-of-tds.730925/), it is understandable how you have lost the ability of rational thought and unable to see things realistically. Those are two of the major symptoms.

For the most part, I can't argue with that. But we still hear, on an almost daily basis, of people throwing parties, holiday or religious gatherings and when bars were open until this week, people who don't take the proper precautions and in tight quarters. When people were more cautious and were not suffering covid fatigue, we had daily cases in Toronto below double digits. That is when people started letting their guard down. And now we don't have the benefit of being able to congregate outdoors.
As long as (1) people engage in riskier behaviours & (2) there are still covidiots acting irresponsibly.
Clean that up & the Canadian covid virus goes away much more quickly, fewer suffer longterm and fewer die.
Nonsense. Things would be worse without masks. Cases explode when people act in more dangerous ways.
Once businesses started opening back up in around May and more people were going back to work, TTC use has been a relative constant. Yet we saw only double digit daily cases in August and now we are setting records. So obviously, TTC use may help spread transmission, it is no more a factor now then it was in August.
The logical conclusion is that other factors are at play. Trying to actually determine which are the most significant factors is a major challenge. That is where tracing would/should have helped, but evidently theorizing about it and putting it into place are two different matters.
Agree about capacity being an issue, but are we supposed to overequip and overstaff and overfund a health care system requiring overtaxing for 100 years for something i.e., a pandemic, that stretches our resources for 1 or 2 years? Not saying that I have the answer but that is the logistical dilemma.
