Texas

A bunch of pathetic fools we are here in Saskatchewan.

And to think all of Texas only had 1000 covid cases today and only 16% of their population is fully vaxxed. They’re not dropping over dead like some would want us to believe. It is time to open things up again.

i know some of you have trouble with math so i will try to help you
pop. texas=29000000
pop saskatchewan=1170000
29000000 divided by 1170000= 24.78
Sask cases apr 5=219
219 times 24.78 =5428 per capita , almost identical
go saskatchewan ! 219 new test subjects

So with the covid variants that are more deadly, easier to spread and affecting younger people, many of whom can't stay at home. The impact of more covid cases is going to overfill hospitals ICUs which we are already seeing and potentially close down lots of workplaces and could result in an even bigger hit to the economy. The third and fourth wave may be more serious than we were hoping for.

The other thing to note is that the more serious variants are coming from countries where covid cases were higher in the first second and second wave. So letting it run wild is not a good strategy.

The chance that more cases will lead to variants overcoming vaccines is certainly a possibility. That may be the case with brazilian variant already. Then we will be in a spot where we try to stay ahead of the variants with modified vaccines.

Texans can put themselves at risk. Watching ML Baseball in person is more important than protecting a population from the spread of a deadly virus!

Those baseball fans that get sick from covid and pass away will get the darwin award. Unfortunately the rest of us have to put up with their stupidity and carelessness.

Texas will be an interesting experiment. Vancouver Canucks could not keep covid out with all precautions.

Long hauler covid symptoms that can affect many major organs would put many hockey careers in jeopardy.

Some people won't wake up untill they lose a family member or are disabled themselves for a few weeks or months. Covid could really make seeding fun. Lost workers, isolation for everyone who was exposed. Then how do you function on the farm.
