Amen. I don't mind policy questions but the partisan sniping detracts from a thread in the health forum. Indeed, take that bickering to the political forum.

as PP pointed out the only governments that were ready were those who already went through it. next time we will be better prepared.

We are not a week away. We are 6-8 weeks out.

Please explain why you think this/what is your source.

Because of doublings starting at 200.

Five minutes to midnight... Inferno.

x10000. Is there a moderator in here? Because there also is some trolling in here. Just seeing a lot of it on other forums, where there seems to be folks purposefully looking to stir up divisiveness with disinformation, with an overseas bent. I’m just wondering where it’s coming from.

CDC just recommended no gatherings above 50 people.

Does not say they are closed TIL FALL. Just "indefinitely". What she says about fall is that the kids will move up. IE don't have to repeat a grade.

"We will be indefinitely cancelling classes across the province," Education Minister Adriana LaGrange said.


Every student will receive a final mark and students will be able to move to the next grade in the fall, according to LaGrange.

She always was planning long term closures if you had followed, she had said it would need to be way longer than weeks or a month. If you watch the video it is clear

I'm pretty sure they'll turn to online teaching or something.

And then one fell down.

Or it “fell down.” (Some think the patients were strategically exterminated by taking down the building.)

What? Why would they purposefully blow up a building?

So thet is why cases dropped

Oh stop this nonsense.
