Desperate Times

ICU beds maxed out because of Covid in Manitoba, air lifted three Covid cases needing ICU beds to ThunderBay in the last couple of days. Elective surgery being postponed because of Covid over-whelming ICU beds.

Yet 180 MAN and his small flock of "Sheepies" and Like Button Buddies come on Agriville cutting and pasting from social media platforms reassuring each other they are the experts on Covid and the Coivid vaccines. No solutions offered just bitching and whining about everything.

!80 Man and his Sheepies, Pastor Tobias Nutbar Thissen "Wants You". Send Money Now!

The experts aren’t even experts u phucktard. Haven’t u been watching how every decision they make is working. The only reason we live in commie country now is because all of the years of not having an adequate health care system. Too many years of government pissing money away on stupid things and most importantly too many people abusing the healthcare system for any stupid reason mostly because it’s free to everyone. U make people pay a bit and then u find out who is really sick and needs help. Sad when we really don’t have crazy bad numbers and we can’t help people and have to ship them to of all places Ontario.

This is a perfect example of the problem. We have people like Agstar and FF that think exactly like they do making public health policy, and keep doing the same ineffective responses. They will never learn. The AZ blood clot is clearly forming in Agstar’s cerebral cortex.

Some morons disregarded the easy restrictions, so now we are left with a mess. They listened to idiots like bg , jw and fp.

Where is your proof of that?

The vaccination rates in every province are way higher than the R value of the virus. The vaccination rate is out pacing the infection rate by 30X in MB. If one person can spread the virus to so many others, then one vaccinated person should halt the spread to the same number of people.

Now do that math. The virus should have been stopped in its tracks long ago.

Someone explain how if 44% of your population is at least partially vaccinated, you’ve been locked down to reduce spread, why are cases are peaking when about 1/2 of your population should be out of the numbers equation. Alberta is not much different, what has changed since the beginning other than the rollout of vaccines.

Variants have been proven to be much more transmissible than the strain earlier on in the pandemic

The we have a different problem then which is a vaccine that is now ineffective against whatever current strain is circulating.

The easy restrictions were closing those airports. A year later and people pour into the country from all over the globe while old timers with two vaccine doses are still locked down.

Variants are weaker than original.

More medical bullshit.

Golf is still allowed in Manitoba, but as of Saturday morning, only household members are allowed to play with each other. This restriction will end on Tuesday night.

Who knew Covid was only active on the courses for those four days?

My league play has been cancelled for the forseeable future, but other than for this coming weekend, the members can still show up and golf. Their scores just won't be recorded.

Who knew that Covid could differentiate between players with a team scorecard and those without?

Humour aside, there is simply no correlation whatsoever between outdoor activity like golfing and Covid cases. This is just another government in panic mode which feels it must be seen to be "doing something" to halt Covid.
