Canada continues to disappoint.
Ontario's renewed lockdowns were mentioned by another poster, but this should give you all a better idea of just how desperate the federal and provincial governments in Canada are to keep this narrative running. Highlights are provided for those of you who don't want your blood pressure to spike.
-omicron supposedly has a 1% hospitalization rate (so, significantly more dangerous than all the other variants? lol)
-people usually stay in hospitals for only two days, not several weeks as with previous variants
-Ford continues to push boosters and preach the infinite good of vaccination
-"I say slow the spread, because iT CaN'T Be StoPpeD"
Mr. Current Year chimes in on the state of affairs in Canada as well, after receiving a question from a reporter who does not sound deranged at all.
-the tone he takes is that of a school counselor telling children they are being very naughty, not the leader of a nation addressing the concerns of adults
-the unvaxxed are the only ones ending up in hospitals
-the unvaxxed pose a risk to everyone else and are the ones responsible for making lockdowns necessary
-it's never too late to do the right thing by getting vaccinated, and it will make that healthcare worker giving you the vaccine feel all warm and fuzzy inside
-casual reminder that you will for realsies get super intubated and likely die this time around if you don't get vaccinated
Outside of Ford stating that omicron spreads faster and hospital stays are shorter, everything presented is blatantly incorrect. Trudeau then does nothing but appeal to emotions, seeing as the facts aren't exactly on his side, and continues to paint the unvaccinated as plague-bearers. I'd say that Canadians should be ashamed for electing this slimy parasite three times over, but it's become clear in the past few elections that the nation's voters are incapable of higher thought.
Something worth considering with respect to all the talk of hospitals being overwhelmed, something which many are not aware of, is that flu season has always been a hard time for hospitals in Canada. They would almost always be running at 110-120% of their maximum capacity and no one ever mentioned this outside of nurses occasionally talking about how tired they are after their shifts. I suppose it wouldn't be a good idea for anyone to highlight that their nation's glorious healthcare system is frequently crippled by something as routine as a seasonal flu, but now there's incentive. It seems more likely that current issues with exhaustion are not to do with covid, but mismanagement. On top of medical staff constantly being threatened with firings, there's an endless cycle of staff being exposed to the rona, being told to stay home despite having been vaccinated, the remaining staff having to cover more work, them getting exposed, then others returning to be overworked themselves, and this is burning everyone out.
All the people I know outside of my immediate family have had covid at this point, and the only ones who had any significant issues had pre-existing conditions which would have landed them in a hospital all the same if it were any other seasonal illness.
People just need to calm down already.
