OMICRON IS THE FLU
Covid Wasn’t
Delta Wasn’t
This is, all evidence points.
Hence, at the risk of Government’s reading this, my own policies have and will change.
Time for governments to do the same. No more lockdowns.
I will not get tested and isolate for every little sniffle i have going forward. I will continue to be wise and responsible, as i have been, but I will make that call.
Highly vulnerable elderly unvaccinated, you are on your own to manage your own risk.
Elderly die of all kinds of things. It’s reality.
And stay out of our ER’s with your sniffles, too. Anything free, is always overused and abused. A $50 charge for using the ER would do wonders. Take care of your own health!

Re: OMICRON IS THE FLU
It would be interesting to see if Omicron people test positive on covid tests. And then see if flu people test positive on omicron tests.rookiepilot wrote: ↑Sun Dec 26, 2021 8:10 am Covid Wasn’t

As for the $50 charge, I read once that at least one of the nordic countries, known for its government provided health care does charge a nominal amount for a doctor visit to discourage the hypochondriacs.

Re: OMICRON IS THE FLU
They’re going to stop the mass testing very shortly I heard from a pharmacist because they’re running out of tests and the labs are maxed out. Plus they know everyone is going to get it sooner or later and if everyone with a positive test stays home 14 days the economy will shut down.
Maybe we can go back to the simple ways of stay home if you’re sick and go to work when you feel better. Seemed to work fine for the past 100 years.
It’s unfortunate how so many have had their brains reprogrammed in the past 2 years to be so fearful of this manufactured plague hype.

Just kidding! As if that would ever happen
I have some family that just got the Rona. Of all people in my family the irony was they were the most pro policy, pro mask and they were triple vaccinated. They got the Rona. I laughed. Wished them their mild cold symptoms go away soon. Of course now they are about to have a perspective shift. Give it a week and covid will be just a cold and they will wonder why they were masking and living in fear after being vaccinated.

Of course they are experiencing mild symptoms, they are vaccinated and all data points to this as a likely outcome, except for this new variant, “they” are still analyzing the data.
For what it’s worth, I realize as most rational people do, A mask is better than NO mask, an N95 is obviously better and for obvious reasons the powers that be decided not to promote that.
BTW, you sound stupid when you refer to this virus as “ the Rona”
Keep staying healthy and my wish is for this being the last and final wave, like the 1918 flu, 4 waves and done with just slightly more than 10% of the total estimated deaths of the 1918 flu pandemic this time around.
Incidentally, the US has recorded around 200,000 more deaths from Covid than 1918-1920 “spanish flu” deaths, yes there are more people therefore a smaller percentage of the population died however, what didn’t they learn from 100+ years ago?
This is what you refer to as the greatest country! Honestly, I doubt your sincerity when you post because the alternative is less flattering to you,
All the best in the new year to all!

Re: OMICRON IS THE FLU
Thank you for wearing a cloth mask, virtue signalling and pretending to be a do-gooder Pelmet. Shall I tell my family to make an account on here so they can personally thank you? Next time can you do extra gooderer so no one gets Covid at all?

Re: OMICRON IS THE FLU
Ontario is getting 10000 cases a day. Likely much higher since not everyone gets tested. Today there were 5 deaths. That’s like a .05% death rate? And how many suicides and overdoses were there in the last day? Car accidents? This whole thing is a nothing burger of epic proportions. Time to move on…….

Re: OMICRON IS THE FLU
Pelmet only takes credit for prevention of covid hospitalization and deaths, he won't take and credit for lost wages, depression, anxiety, suicide, drug addiction etc that may be linked to covid policies. Only covid deaths matter. And like you said, inverted, there were 5. That's 5 to many!

Most european health systems charge a user fee to keep the crazies away and it works. This is a very real problem in Canada. But it is truly stunning how so many people have bought the complete Covid hype. It is a classic con. Where have you people been hiding? Have you no real world experience? You have been scammed to the max. What an incredible farce. The western world is supposed to be where all the smart people are. It has just been proven that they are the dumbest, most gullible of all. And there is a price to pay. The world is changing very fast and the axis of power will shift dramatically away from all "the smart people" who are so dumb. Wake up. And all of you waiting for your career to resume..it is not going to. Get with the program. There is no Santa Claus. Fauci is an evil little tyrant. Biden is a goof. Get what you deserve.

Re: OMICRON IS THE FLU
Why thank you. I seem to have a brain
Some were implemented early and ended up not making sense as we learned more about covid but we can forgive some of the early reactions. It's more the prolonged stupid ones I don't understand. Do you need a list of pandemic policies that I consider completely useless? I don't think you believe all of the policy was good policy. So if you want to debate it I guess we have to point out what we agree on and what we don't.

Its a long list. A much shorter list would be the good policy list. Probably only about 5 of them, and the whole pandemic could be much more simple.
But the politics involved of course made things way more complicated. Most people didn't have a clue what the rules were and when. Are we red, orange, yellow, green? Was this a lockdown, or a circuit breaker lockdown, or a stay home order

Was that successful at all or a complete waste of a press conference? The list is long... Like really long. Mostly because it seemed like a monthly or weekly occurrence to get some sort of new policy.
