Oso planning to go pro
What are your thoughts on folks saying we're severely undercounting deaths from covid?
From or with? I think they’re wrong if they believe “from” is undercounted but undoubtedly right on undercounted “with” especially in 2020.
Quebec has implemented and using police to enforce a 10 pm to 5 am curfew. Apparently Omnicron does not spread at night. Baby steps…
Heaven forbid a place take steps to stem the spread of Covid at a peak. It won’t stop every spread of Covid in Montreal, but tried to remove a scenario where people are in indoor spaces, tightly packed, and inhibitions lowered. It is crazy to me people think if a policy is enacted that doesn’t stop every Covid case, it is useless.
Looks like they are adjusting to allow for an exception to dog owners. Also, no one has been issued a ticket for walking their dog. So you can rest easy.https://apple.news/Ajz89WNHuR9-sXPB0Z8N53gIf this is their best way to limit people gathering in large groups and indoors, then I’m glad they are trying something. Will this stop all spread? Of course not. But if it can help mitigate the number of cases to give the hospitals some slack, then I think it’s worth a shot.
The Mayo Clinic is now requiring all patients and visitors to wear N95's because of Omicron. This is why I was saying cloth masks at Fiserv are minimal protection if any. But as more data is accumulated it seems as though Omicron is far less serious than Delta despite being much more contagious.
Again because if you can’t do everything possible, you may as well do nothing.
I was at the game yesterday. 80% of the folks I saw where wearing cloth masks. Which does absolutely nothing for you or the people around you so it’s ink thing more then theater. Scotty G was on the morning shows today saying a cloth mask does nothing since Covid is airborne. I remember saying that awhile back and then getting “dunked” on by a handful of know it all scoopers who talk a lot but more often then not have no idea what they’re talking about.

Fake news."Cloth masks aren't going to provide a lot of protection, that's the bottom line"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/full-transcript-dr-scott-gottlieb-face-the-nation-january-2-2022/
https://twitter.com/VPrasadMDMPH/status/1477707606135226372The science is settled. Safe and effective they say.Again just as a reminder. Im double poked, believe anyone who wants to get it should get it and I encourage my family and friends to do it (had to talk my wife into it). However mandating something we are still learning about is insane.
Congrats. You've found someone as big of a quack as you are.
Right, plus he was putting words in Scott G's mouth. I mean, if you have to lie to make your point...
Goodness. Can lead a horse to water....
Cloth masks help. Are they perfect? Nope. Are they better than N95s? Nope. But are they more than “theatre?” Yep. You would think being consistently wrong (remember Sweden?) would cause you to question your continued Covid takes, but I guess not.
I'm not debating any point your making, just pointing out your lies.
Sorry for not quoting him exactly but I think you're smart enough to now know (took you awhile) that a cloth mask is not going to do a thing in stopping the spread of Covid. So if Fiserv, schools, businesses etc want to implement mask mandates they should at least require surgical masks otherwise it's little more then Covid theater. Right??
