How can I quote a CP24 news conference?? Maybe try your luck and see if you can find it on youtube
What does my thread title say, smartypants??
Jeezus, you're slow today
What do we REALLY know about Covid-19?
- Thread starter Tomoreno
- Start date
Jeezus, you're slow today
Sorry I disagree.
And I'm speaking form HER perspective. If you're dealing a with an unknown, new virus then that should be ALL the more reason to be extra precautious and mandate masks right from the beginning. The N95 are the only masks I see that will work. Granted there was a shortage around March of these masks, but for her to finally realize that 1-layer masks are ineffective in November is incompetent, because that information was well known before that time
Again, where is your proof? Quote the source.... and who told you to wear a single layer mask??????????
This is the problem, you guys cherry pick the most minute of details that no one actually follows or focuses on....
Give your head a shake!!
NO, what have you done!!!! If they shake their heads they will shed LV (Lunacy Virus) out the ear and infect more and more with this mind numbing viral bug.

You just don't get it
Multiple countries nipped this in the bud by implementing safety measures that Canada failed to
To the contrary Tam went on record publicly CONDEMNING everyone AGAINST restricting Chinese and calling those efforts as RACISTS
Back in March places like Korea were testing EVERYONE who crossed borders
Our borders were wide open and we had voluntary quarantines (and see how well that worked)
People were still flying to/from Florida for Spring Break for fucks sake
Point is she missed the bus, she was NOT aligned with worlds scientific community, and now whats done is done
Her recommendation, based on the science at that time, was no mask. After one month new info came to light and she changed her recommendation and has been consistent for 8-9 months.
Keep in mind that in late summer, Ontario was down to under 100 cases per day and has been increasing since. If she'd recommended masks in the beginning in March, that would not have changed what has happened since late summer and where we are now.
Sure buddy
Here is Tam saying that person to person is "unlikely" on planes dated NOV 2020
The problem (aka idiocy) of her position is this; since they do NOT test people getting off airplanes (instead trusting their honour to self isolate) they do not document any cases of it spreading
Explain to me how a person driving across the border should be blocked (in case they spread the virus) but flying across border is a-ok
Anyone who believes the nonsense that an asymptomatic carrier is suddenly cured when they fly is the worst kind of covidiot
Phil, does being able to blame someone make you feel better because even if you are correct it changes nothing. What is the purpose of trying to prove that she made a mistake for the first month? What happens then? Would you feel better if she got fired and they could appoint someone that looks like one of your never-ending supply of beauties that we could watch on TV? I'd go for that.
Wrong. Over 99.9% of the masks people are wearing work. They work to reduce the liklihood of C-19 infections.
In study after study medical or surgical type masks were as effective as N95 masks.
These type of masks have been available to the public since forever.
"The World Health Organization has recommended three layers for non-medical masks since June. When pressed about the sudden change for Canada, Tam said the research has evolved."

Others were recommending them long before June.
To the average John or Jane on the street & street corners that should have been common sense since about the time they were toddlers.
Is a KN95 mask better than a sheet of bum tissue as a mask. Duh.
In Ontario of the 3,004 deaths reported in the province, 12 were in people between the ages of 20 and 39 while 125 were between the ages of 40 and 59.
Seniors continue to be the demographic hardest hit by the disease. At least 799 people between the ages of 60 and 79 have died after being diagnosed with COVID-19 and 2,067 more deaths were logged in those over the age of 80.
What we do know is that we are destroying our economy, delaying surgeries, mental health is on the rise. We have shut down the province for 137 deaths. The old and aging unfortunately die every year. We are making a bad situation worse.

"mental health is on the rise"? That's a good thing ;
The economy is not dead or destroyed, but sleeping & on holiday. BMO forecasts a full recovery of the Canadian economy next year.
"A study published in the Journal of Public Health finds that for each person in the U.S. who died after contracting COVID-19, an average of nearly 10 years of life had been lost."
What is obviously clear is due to lockdowns:
1) serious vehicular accidents & deaths are way way down
2) flu deaths & serious complications have decreased tremendously
3) C-19 ill health & deaths are far less due to the lockdowns
4) likewise probably other communicable diseases (e.g. tuberculosis, HIV) have been greatly reduced by the extreme safety measures in place
5) street crimes have probably been highly reduced.
6) families have been able to spend more time together enjoying each others company while free from the slavery of that 4 letter word "work" that the vast majority hate. Giving more time for quality of life activities like sex & various entertainments.
7) abortions (child murder) are probably down.

I'd bet most intelligent regulars here haven't taken you seriously for quite some time ;
It is common knowledge that elective procedures were delayed during the lockdowns.
I believe there are 2 peer reviewed studies out that claim mask wearing has had a negligible effect in stopping the spread.
I have no problem wearing a mask when I'm indoors with strangers. However, I refuse to wear one when I'm outside. I see so many wearing them outside its absolutely silly. Excessive mask wearing can also cause other health issues.
Tam is correct about transmission on planes. Planes have to meet safety standards including standards regarding ventilation and air circulation. The average plane changes the entire cabin of air every 3 minutes, a comically large amount of air gets moved through the cabin. The path of airflow in an airplane cabin is from the ceiling to the floor.
In the 1970s there was a case where a single passenger infected 80% of the passengers and crew with a virus. The case as studied, solutions were designed, and new standards were put into place.
Sure. Why don't I find evidence to support your claims?
How many posts have you made claiming masks don't work?What does my thread title say, smartypants??
Jeezus, you're slow today
But here you are saying masks work and some work better than other. You're just like cutandpasteman posting whatever self-contradictory stuff you can use to cast doubt on science.
Strange that after all your complaints about masks and lockdowns that you claim Canada should instantly implement the highest level of precautions for every new virus. I'm sure you look forward to the government mandating hazmat suits every time a new virus is identified.
