Change of Season, Change of Pace, Change of Mood, But No Changes With...

 Covid19

October 2, 2021

Autumn is officially underway here in QC, with the colder temperatures and the leaves starting to change colours. Not quite as much as in the picture above, but they're starting.  You definitely know it's autumn out there and not springtime. 

So that means we're going to be busier than usual trying to hustle to get things done before winter.  There always seems to be too much to do all at the same time or nothing at all. Like that song goes "it never rains in California, but man it pours".  On top of that things keep adding to the list of things we have to do. Unforeseen things, like little problems cropping up with the car, that needs attending to, that weren't occurring before when we had the time to take care of it. A computer breakdown (my husband's computer broke down a couple of days after he got it back) so now he's scrambling to find parts amongst some of the older computer parts he had lying around - like drives, fans, RAM, cases, video cards etc in order to build another one for himself. 
 
On top of that there's harvest time (no we don't have a garden but we do take advantage of the specials to be had at this time of year garden or not, so I can find a way to preserve the stuff to have during the year) and we've got a bunch of veggies for me to take care of, on top of the various meats we want to get before the specials are over with, that he'll have to butcher into the cuts we want and package to freeze.  Especially considering all the scaremongering stories I've seen about the cost of food lately. So when we find food at reasonable or sale prices we buy in quantity so that we can have those foods over the course of time, by blanching & freezing or butchering & freezing in meal sized packages for us.  That way when there's huge hams on special we don't have to decline the special. We just buy it and butcher it into a large portion to treat as you would a ham for special occasions and ham steaks and small chunks with the rest of it. Packaged in meal sized portions for the 2 of us. That way we have our ham for whatever special occasion we want it for plus small ham chunks for pea soup or scalloped potatoes throughout the year along with the occasional ham steak. With no waste and no need to gorge ourselves on ham forever and a year after bringing it home and cooking it. We currently have a large pork roast waiting to be butchered into strips and cubes and we plan on getting a chuck roast that's on special to make into various beef cuts like steaks, cubes, strips, a roast and ground beef. That should take care of the meat for a while. Except the turkey that we still need to find and buy for Thanksgiving which is a week from this Monday.
 
But first we have to defrost the freezer and also accommodate real estate brokers who want to show the place. 
 
Oh and not to mention that next weekend is our Thanksgiving holiday here, so that means I also have a pie or two to make as well.  
 
Right now I'm taking a little break before going to make a loaf of bread (while the yeast comes to room temperature). Maybe after I finish doing that, I'll have more time to blog and post some headlines here. As they used to  say in chatroom parlance BRB.....
 
Anywho.... I'm back now.... So on with the headlines... There's tons of them still that must be older than Methusela  and a ton of more current ones, I'll try to get to as much as I can and maybe skip over some of the older ones that seems to be repeats of other stories - like how bad it is in Alberta & Sask. We are perhaps well aware of that by now so unless there's a story there that accentuates the situation or adds an entirely new wrinkle to it or it's a newer more current story about it, I won't post it. That ought to cut down on a few stories but not diminish the picture of the true scope of this neverending nightmare called the Covid19 plandemic.  So think of this as an abridged version of the headlines this time around, just so I can manage to catch up to the current headlines to a degree. 
 
Otherwise I'll always be way behind. So those stories I think we already all know about up until recently, I'll just skip over. I realize that because of this blog and hunting the headlines for it, I probably know things a lot of others don't and may think that it's pretty much common knowledge by now and so skip it, when others have no clue about it. So I apologize for that in advance, but I really have to draw the line somewhere if I'm going to get current again, or just quit doing this altogether. And trust me that thought has crossed my mind more than a few times too and there have been several days lately where it's more and more tempting considering the fact that this virus never lets up and I just don't see myself doing this for the rest of my life and will quit at some point or another if the virus doesn't first. And on top of that we're super busy these days with all the stuff we have to do around here, so I don't know how much time I can spare towards this anyhow.

So now on with it....

 
 
 
 
Quebec judge rules boy, 12, can get COVID-19 vaccine despite father’s objections Really, honestly and truly I do not see how judges, prosecutors or even defense lawyers can make any determinations on anything to do with health as that's not their specialty. And  when it's something as detrimental as someone's life or health at stake I don't think anyone who doesn't hold a license to practice medicine should be making any binding pronouncements on that at all. And even doctors who do have a license to practice medicine can be and are wrong at times. No one's perfect. That's the reason you're told to seek at least 3 different medical opinions when given a serious diagnosis or prognosis. That way you can see if any other doctors agree with the original one, or if there's 2 out of those 3 that tends to agree with each other while the other one appears to have a totally other opinion from everyone else's. Unless the judge heard from at least 3 different doctors on this subject - without having those who've been censured by their professional collective for speaking out against the mainstream consensus being excluded from giving their medical opinion (because it's just as valid as the others who genuinely believe the lamestream narrative on this BS plandemic we're going through). 


More than 500,000 U.S. children tested positive for COVID-19 in 3 weeks And we were told that kids couldn't get the virus eh? hehehe.... Anyone who thought or believed that had sheite for brains. I mean when they were saying that it was kids who were spreading it to adults, it had to be obvious that for them to be able to spread it, they had it, but they were asymptomatic. I mean duh.... How stupid do you have to be to not understand that? I mean just look at my sidebar here with all the things to do with kids - one of which is covid symptoms in kids. If they weren't supposed to get it,  how come they had symptoms?

 

 
Employers can demand workers be vaccinated against COVID-19: Quebec premier  Is this just a pronouncement by his royal lowness Legault or is this an actual law? Just wondering....

Canada suffers shock economic contraction, casting shadow over recovery According to a story in the Guardian today they say the world supply crisis could blow the entire world's economy off course and not just here in Canada.

'Vaccine snob' travelers flock to Guam for sun, sea and shots This should've been named "Vaccine Idiots", considering that anyone who would go out of their way to get that shot have to be idiots, since all immunity provided by the Pfizer shot is completely GONE IN 7 MONTHS. So anyone who think's they're getting the best shot on the planet is sorely mistaken. At this point I'm laying odds of 100 to 1 that basically ALL OTHER VACCINES ON THE PLANET ARE BETTER THAN THE FAUCI & GATES SALINE SOLUTION THEY'RE TRYING TO PASS OFF AS A VACCINE. I'm sorry but after all the stories and headlines I've seen to do with that shot, I have no use for it and I can't understand for the life of me WHY the FDA gave it full approval or approved it for use in kids under 12. Someone at the FDA must've gotten their palms greased by Fauci & Gates that's for sure.
 
With no tourist handouts, hungry Bali monkeys raid homes The plandemic is even hurting the Bali monkey's economy.

 
 
America's in a COVID funk As far as I'm concerned the whole handwashing and walking a half a mile apart from each other was nothing but a bunch of over the top BS. Wearing a mask (since it is a respiratory infection first - meaning you inhale droplets containing the virus that sets off the infection in your lungs and the rest of your system) was the only part of that over the top BS I adhered to. Still do, except in the stores where they have those hand sanitizers or sinks with someone watching to make sure you do as they say. Otherwise I don't bother. I used to carry hand sanitizer around with me and used it after I touched everything. Then one day I didn't but I had to stick my fingers in my mouth because of a hair in my mouth. I tasted the stupid sanitizer I'd used from the store on my fingers and it was awful. I got the hair out of my mouth, reapplied my mask and that was it. No worse for the wear. Despite having gone through the entire store, picked things up off the shelves that others obviously handled before me - like the stockboy for instance and probably other store employees and patrons as well, left the store - touching the very handles everyone else before me touched on their way out without sanitizing their hands before leaving the store (as there's no hand sanitizers available on the way out, only on the way in), no worse for the wear. I didn't get sick or even get a sore throat. 
 
Since that incident, I haven't been so paranoid about things and wear a mask because it is a respiratory illness and from what I've read about the break through infections - it's because the RNA based vaccines generate an over the top response to fight the virus off, kind of akin to using a sledge hammer when a mere tap of the hand would do, to kill it. So that's why vaccinated people are getting sick with it. It's not the "with it" part that's making them sick, it's the immune response their bodies mounted to combat it, that's making them sick, as per this magazine here: What Doctors Don't Tell You Australia/NZ - October 2021  You'd be doing yourselves a huge favour if you download and read all the Covid related articles in there. Just download it from the longfiles link - it's in PDF format, so if you have the Adobe PDF reader you'll be able to read it.

While we're on the subject of doctors and what they do or don't tell you, you might want to check out what the Doctors for COVID Ethics has to say about all of this. Remember these are doctors and not accountants masquerading as health ministers or self-appointed know it alls like courtroom judges or lamestream media government mouthpieces masquerading as journalists. They are actual doctors who may also be taking professional risks for coming out and joining that organization to promote the truth about this disease. 
 
 
 
 
Doctors dismayed by patients who fear coronavirus vaccines, but clamor for unproven ivermectin they're dismayed by patients who fear vaccines but clamor for unproven ivermectin eh? Well I'll tell you something there folks, ivermectin has been used to treat people and is infact being studied by the NIH (a US government agency) as a COVID 19 treatment. The link to that site's page is right here folks: NIH logo COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines And the vaccines they want us to take aren't any more proven (even less so, I think in some cases especially the RNA based vaccines) than that medicine. So they're against you taken something that's unproven but yet telling you to take unproven vaccines. Does that make any sense to anyone out there? Because it doesn't make sense to me. If you don't want someone taking something not proven, then don't force them to take those stupid vaccines because they're not proven and in fact the world's population has now become the guinea pigs for those vaccines. Which are proving not to be reliable and in a lot of cases downright harmful or deadly.
 
 
 
 
Hundreds of Florida parents lined up at a chiropractor's office after he signed mask-exemption forms for students No wonder QC regarded chiropractors as being nothing but quacks, up until the late 70s or early 80s.


Canada election 2021: Votes the country could be missing because of the COVID-19 pandemic So just imagine how much differently things could've turned out, if we had those votes on election night, instead of a repeat of the last election we might've had a different outcome this time around.

Canada's 'window of opportunity' to stop COVID-19 cases reaching 15,000 daily is 'narrowing,' top doctor says You mean Canada's top witch doctor or genocidal maniac, don't you? She probably wishes it were that number or higher. 
 
U.S. heads into Labor Day with Covid vaccines but a substantially worse outbreak than this time last year A lot of that may have had to do with widespread lockdowns and restrictions and more precautions on the part of the public than they are displaying these days thanks in large part to the vaccines. They may believe that because most people or they themselves are vaccinated that it's safer out there for them and so they aren't taking nearly as many precautions as they were this time last year. 

Coronavirus can spread among vaccinated people, so officials urge cautious Labor Day As I've been saying for awhile now..... And that What Doctors Don't Tell You (link above) says as well, along with an explanation as to why.
 
Why cloth masks are on some airlines’ no-fly lists  After everyone went overboard trying to make and sell them. 


Australia Traded Away Too Much Liberty According to the headline directly above this one, you could say this headline is an understatement.

'Your life in Alberta is only worth $100': Canadians furious after Alberta's promise to pay unvaccinated residents to take the shot You might remember Biden also tried this in the US and it didn't work any better for him than it did for Kenney. I guess only those who are so desperately poor that $100 actually looks like a lot of money, went for this, both in Alberta and the US.


Researchers Infect Volunteers With Coronavirus, Hoping to Conquer Covid-19  I hope none of those volunteers die on account of volunteering for this.

 

Doctor says gunshot victims forced to wait for treatment as Oklahoma hospitals overwhelmed by coronavirus patients Well if they didn't have so many guns that everyone & their dog had one to play with and fire at each other or accidentally at themselves, there wouldn't be that problem, instead the place of urgency taken up by trigger happy idiots would instead be taken up by people suffering heart attacks and strokes or car accident victims.  You know.... REAL emergencies.
 
 
Protesters against COVID-19 vaccine mandates say they're pro-freedom, 'not anti-vax' Even though I was a nurse & also got the vaccine, I too am pro freedom and not against the vaccine. I think since this is an experimental method of making vaccines and we don't know what it will do to us in the long run and since it doesn't seem to be preventing people from catching the virus, anyhow, I think it should be up to each individual as to whether or not they wish to get it or not. And not have it forced on us.

 


 
 
 
 

Florida Will Issue $5,000 Fines to Businesses and Schools That Require Proof of Vaccination Here it's completely the opposite. Those businesses who don't require proof of vaccination, can get fined $6,000.00.

Albertans fully vaccinated for COVID-19 urged to stay cautious during pandemic's 4th wave As we all should considering what kind of reactions our vaccines can cause us to have when we encounter the virus. 

Florida doctor to refuse in-person treatment for unvaccinated patients She sounds an awful lot like our doctor, except our doctor refuses in person treatment of everyone regardless of vaccination status.

 

 
Former UK PM Blair warns West should prepare for bio-terrorism threat  Gawd this one is a daft slow learner isn't he? What's he think this COVID19 BS is all about? That it just evolved naturally in a lab without any help from humans and managed to escape that lab without any help either? Especially since the Chinese thought they were going to have the world wide patent rights to Redemsivir which at the time was the only known antidote to this disease? Which would allow China to dictate the conditions and terms that would allow each country to acquire some/enough for their citizens. I mean how dumb is that clown? Must be pretty dumb considering all the pyres he dictated to burn livestock in England as a means of a "sacrifice" because he and Baby Bush wanted to start a war in Iraq. He used the then spreading hoof and mouth disease as an excuse for those pyres. But livestock suffering from hoof and mouth generally recover on their own and poses absolutely no threat to humans. Maybe he inhaled too many of those fumes and it affected his brain in the long run. Anyhow Blair wasn't the brightest crayon in the box, nor was Baby Bush and the 2 of them together were like Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb. It was a toss up sometimes figuring out which one was Tweedle Dumb.
 
 
 
 
B.C. doctors debunk misinformation spread at 'health freedom' protests Is it really misinformation though and not just information that they don't want you to know about?

 

 

Eric Clapton mocked over new anti-lockdown anthem Well just look at who's doing the mocking the gullible snowflake sheeple of the millennial generation.

Protesters throw gravel at Trudeau; Liberal leader won't bow to 'anti-vaxxer mobs' Euuuu by the looks of things some Canadians have had way more than enough both of this plandemic and that nitwit.

 

 

Quebec health minister pens open letter as COVID 19 cases rise Like as if this pencil necked idiotic accountant knows anything at all about medicine.....

Daunting debt: What the pandemic public spending spree will mean for Canada’s post-COVID economy I'll sum it up truthfully, unlike this article.... We'll be taken over by the IMF and Bank of International Settlements for monies owed. That's what'll happen.  Which will make Paul Martin's belt tightening exercises in the 90s look more like Christmas morning rather than just merely a picnic.

 
How many double-jabbed people are dying from COVID? Keep in mind those people didn't have to die at all if they were only given real vaccines and not placebos masquerading as one.

 
Canada's "Crucial moment": new modelling reaffirms Delta's dangerous surge So that's precisely the moment you throw open the borders to most of the rest of the world, just incase we were running low on cases. I mean how'll that look to everyone else if we don't have any cases, but they're running rampant with them?

 

U.S. travel advisory for Canada ‘is bonkers’ Yup! Seriously bonkers considering our vaccination rates compared to theirs!

Denmark bans unvaccinated US tourists following latest EU guidance All international travellers everywhere should be banned from travelling internationally if they aren't fully vaccinated. If they don't have the required vaccines they shouldn't be allowed to leave their country to go to another period.

 

Chile authorizes Sinovac vaccine for kids of 6 and older I hope for their sake that vaccine works better than Pfizer's with less side effects and longer efficacy ratings.

UPDATE 1-Moderna seeks EU authorization for COVID-19 vaccine booster dose Why? Is one even needed? Because from all the news reports and data I've seen, it's doubtful that one would even be needed.

Dr. Anthony Fauci Says Moderna May Not Be Ready for Biden's Proposed Sept. 20 Booster Rollout I'm sure he hoped it wasn't and was probably ready to do everything in his power to ensure that it wasn't too, considering it's the rival vaccine to his much vaunted and highly invested in Pfizer vaccine.

 
COVID-19 boosters are coming but who will get them and when?  I know I won't be getting a booster no matter what, as I had a rough enough time with my 2nd dose. So won't be going through that again.

 
 
 
 
 
Vietnam court sentences man to 5 years in jail for spreading COVID-19 If we had laws like that here, everyone but everyone who tested positive would be sure to stay home and isolate.

New Details Emerge About Coronavirus Research at Chinese Lab If you follow all the links in this article you'll be able to get pdf versions of a lot of the documents referenced and be taken to linked stories about the whole affair. Which apparently points the finger at the NIH for helping fund the research into creating that virus in the Wuhan Labs. Or so I'm taken to believe by the amount I read of the articles (they're long with lots of additional materials and so haven't read them all). So if that's the case, the US & China are jointly to blame here. Well even if the NIH weren't involved, Gilead Sciences was and it's an American company. So no matter how you slice it, the Americans and Chinese were in cahoots together on this. Guess their little genie got out of the bottle and not only did harm to other areas of the world, but their own too! That's what you call karma biting you in the ash. And from what I can tell Fauci is shown to be the liar that I thought he was here when he denied the NIH funded anything to do with the research on this virus in Wuhan. Given his and Gates salivating over the money to be made on vaccines against a global pandemic (such as this one) and all the other too convenient happenings and forums on everything to merely be coincidental, I'd say he probably 100% KNEW and probably even was behind the NIH funding on this project.

U.K. Is Among First Western Nations to Increase Taxes to Cover Covid-19 Costs I don't even want to try to imagine what kind of nightmare our tax situation will look like once this plandemic is over and done with. 

Rutgers bars unvaccinated student from attending virtual classes From attending VIRTUAL CLASSES eh? Isn't that just a little over the top in the dictatorship territory there Rutgers? It's not as if you're one of the elite universities out there, either. 

Newspaper headlines: PM's social care gamble and highest tax since war Which war? The Afghan war? If so that wasn't so long ago.... Or maybe the Iraq war? Didn't the hoof & mouth disease pyres cover the cost of that one? Oh.... Maybe the Falklands war, guess the coal miners strike that occurred then didn't help with the cost of that one either? Oh but the GST was introduced around then, so that must've helped gouge a few eyeballs out to cover that war. Otherwise which war are you talking about? The one where Canadians were conscripted to go fight on your behalves? That one or the one before it where they were also conscripted? It's not like Britain hasn't been involved in any wars in the last century or so, so it would help to clarify which war you're talking about there dear journalist.

 

Northern Peninsula COVID cluster grows as N.L. reports 9 new cases 9 Cases is a lot in the tiny little towns and villages in the Northern Peninsula, as St. Anthony's the biggest little town has only a population of 2100 or so souls. All other places are much smaller than that in size on that peninsula. So it's a good chance that everyone in those areas knows everyone else, including all the infected. So that means the whole area could wind up with it, if they aren't careful.

 
Canada has opened up its borders to fully vaccinated foreign travellers. Are there risks? Of course there are risks. Risks of people showing up with fake vaccine passports (that we can't prove as we aren't aware of what the official ones from those regions look like) or the vaccine that they had was little better than water at preventing an infection, or it's worn off already, or even though they are vaccinated they're still carrying and spreading the virus (which has been happening A LOT LATELY). 

 
No jab, no pay: Quebec gives health-care workers deadline to get fully vaccinated My daughter-in-law has finally decided to get her vaccine, she had the first dose a couple of weeks ago. Now that the QC gov't introduced that one time bonus for nurses, I guess since she's getting her vaccinations she'll be eligible for that bonus as well. And I know they'll be able to put it to good use once she gets it too.

 

 
Vaccine passports coming, Furey says, as N.L. reports 5 new cases So essentially all of Canada will be using those passports. Now if they could unify & standardize them, so they all look the same and convey the same information from one province to another it would make it that much easier for us Cdns to travel between provinces.

Vaccine now required for hospital visitors and all health workers Oh goody for us, we'll be able to visit each other when one of us goes to the hospital. Yay!

 
WHO chief wants rich countries to halt booster shots for remainder of 2021 Well unless your vaccine was Pfizer you may not need a booster before then anyhow, as all the other vaccines seem to be better than Pfizer.

COVID-19-positive person attends Cornwall, Ont. anti-vaccine protest: health unit Were they aware they were positive at the time they attended the protest?

 
 
 
European Countries Are Banning US Travelers. Here’s What You Need to Know And if Canada weren't being run by such a pack of clueless idiots as we are, we'd be following suit and banning the Americans from crossing our borders too.

 

 
Porter and Air Canada Rouge return to the skies months after COVID-19 groundings Yup that's all this earth needs is for the 250,000 flights daily around the globe to resume like as if it was business as per usual. Too bad they couldn't stay grounded and let everyone telecommute to work like they were doing the whole plandemic long. 

 

Ontarians can download a PDF copy of their COVID-19 vaccination record There's a live link  here to the place where you can do that, if you need to.

 

Coronavirus: Hongkongers stranded overseas still face several hurdles to return, including flights, hotel rooms, and confusion over entry documents They must be taking lessons from Canada on how to screw up everyone's lives, except of course the Americans, who are being let into Canada with no problem.

 
 
Croatia & Austria Among First Countries to Set a Maximum Validity Period of COVID-19 Vaccination Certificates Oh I'm sure if authorities here in Canada see this and figure out ways to exploit such measures - like maybe make it a renewable passport but with exigences on getting the renewal - like say needing booster shots or flu shots in order to do so, other wise you're back to square one with none.

 

 

Worries over economic recovery shake world stocks, dollar pares gains There's a whole boondoggle of problems associated with the recovery, from lack of workers and low wages, to unaffordable wage demands, to shortages of everything from the raw materials to vital components to make certain things and then there's the sky high prices of the things that are available - maybe in scarcity, but still available for a certain price. And the people betting on the stock markets and futures markets, along with monetary policies the world over. Not to mention the regular people who will lose whatever income support they had and thus may be defaulting on their loans and mortgages and now talk of negative interest rates, where you pay the bank to keep your money instead of them paying you for letting them use your money to lend to make more money with. And an introduction of a digital currency which by the looks of things in El Salvador is going over like a lead balloon. It's on account of all those things occurring at the same time, that is going to cause mega problems, I'm sure.

 

Monster risk: Fauci says COVID cases 10x too high If you ask me, the Monster Risk in this picture is Fauci himself.

 
When Was the First U.S. Covid Death? C.D.C. Investigates 4 Early Cases Wondering if the cases here jive with earlier reports on this very subject, which I'm sure were posted in this blog too? 

Four factors that increase the risk of vaccinated people getting COVID For the full picture on why they get the virus, download and read that magazine What Doctors Don't Tell You linked above and read that.

 

 
Breakthrough COVID-19 deaths are happening in Saskatchewan, so what does it all mean?  It means the vaccines aren't working. That's what it means in a nutshell.

 
Moderna, Novavax developing combined COVID-19, flu shots That's one way to get people who are resisting one type of vaccine but want the other to get both by foisting them off on them as one shot that's inseparable.

Treating COVID-19 patients in intensive care costs at least $50,000: report I guess then it's a good thing we all have medicare and it covers it for us. Otherwise we'd be a nation full of bankrupt covid survivors or dead. 

 

 
Days into Alberta’s $100 COVID-19 vaccine incentive, experts say initiative is futile, insignificant Like I said it's probably only the extremely poor people who would be enticed by this, so of course it didn't make much of an impact.

 
Are you feeling re-entry anxiety? Here’s how to ease back into the social world  Sometimes I think journalists make up causes to write about. Things that aren't actually a problem for anyone anywhere they'll pretend like they are and write about it, as if their imaginings are based on real world cases. And I think this is one of them. I can't seriously see any normal sane people having a problem getting back out there in society. Only those who are agoraphobic normally might have a problem like that or those who are normally recluses anyhow, but otherwise most normal, people shouldn't have such a problem. 

Microsoft return to U.S. offices delayed indefinitely Awww what's wrong? Doesn't Microsoft have enough confidence in Bill Gates' Pfizer vaccine to protect them against the virus? How come? 

Poll: 80% Oppose Tax Hikes Coming Out of Pandemic Sure why not? Just keep hitting the population while they're down! What clown thought it would be a good idea for a tax hike then? Especially considering a lot of people are out of work and can barely afford things as they are!
 
For now, that's it. Until next time take care and stay well. Maybe I'll make it a little closer to catching up then.

Keeping So Busy I'm Almost Blithely Unware of the....

Covid19 Pandemic


Courtesy Pixabay.com

August 27, 2020

Seriously, we've been so busy lately that to us it's like there is no pandemic and things are normal. We've barely had a few minutes to relax, doing all sorts of things, from butchering more meat, - this time for our son who wanted some, to baking, doing errands, good old regular household chores like laundry etc, having our son & his wife over for supper again tonight (they came to pick up the meat my husband butchered for them, we had them stay for dinner). It's almost like it always was before the plandemic happened. The only reminders I've had of it lately is having to wear masks inside the establishments I've gone to and my blog. Otherwise, life feels like it always did with constant stuff to do and impromptu dinner guests etc... Even the regular TV news has been taken over with the storms happening in Louisiana and Texas, the senseless shooting of yet another black man in Kenosha, Wis., and the US election. Covid19 stories seems to have disappeared from the broadcast news at least for now (unless it involves schools and back to school discombobulations, otherwise nothing really).

Butttt.... That doesn't mean I'm bereft of headlines on it, that's for sure. I have plenty for you in case you're missing them 😉 trust me.  So get ready to get your fill of the COVID19 stories, that I'm able to post today.....


2 coronavirus treatments now have FDA authorization, while 7 others show promise — here's the full list of our leading candidates  Looks like there might be some hope on the horizon after all, at least for the Americans. 

The Canadians are being held hostage by the stupid communist country of China and the anal ash holes that rule it. (sorry for the foul mouth there, but I'm beyond infuriated with that whole situation and the naive airhead that runs Canada that even after ALL the BS China put us through with grabbing 2 Cdns, rejecting all our produce we sent to them, executing another Cdn on drug charges bozo brains in Ottawa STILL SAW FIT TO ALLOW them to SEIZE CONTROL OF OUR VACCINATIONS, is just beyond belief and one pill too many for me to swallow on that inept ash hole in parliament). I'm not sure but I think that could qualify as treason if you ask me. In any case, he NEEDS TO GO WHEN PARLIAMENT RESUMES and NOT JUST GO, BUT GO TO JAIL! For all the garbage he's done to Canada and the list is a long one, which I won't reiterate here, as most of it has nothing to do with the virus but letting it in in the first place does! And then letting China hijack our vaccination supply..... Well anyhow.... So everywhere else in the world will have vaccinations and treatments except Canada because moron face allowed the crooked backstabbing Chinese to hijack ours.



Coronavirus blocked from entering cells after scientists design new receptor protein That's good news, but how practical it is, is another story, I think.

Making a homemade face mask? Add a vacuum cleaner filter to make it extra strong  Hmmm.... Are vacuum cleaner bags waterproof or do they fall apart when wet like other paper products do? Just wondering because if you're going to be incorporating the vaccum cleaner filters in masks you make, they'll wind up having to be disposable as you won't be able to wash and reuse them again. So I'd try washing the vacuum cleaner filter you plan to use,  first and see what happens to it after a cycle in the washer and dryer before incorporating it into a mask you make that you plan to reuse again and again. Maybe use the same filter and see how many washes and dryings it can withstand before falling apart - that way you know whether it's worth incorporating it into your masks or not, or if you'll only be able to use your mask 10 times before it's no good, or what. I mean I would, as I basically hate sewing and so wouldn't want to be making masks over and over and over again because one component of them doesn't stand up very long.  That's not to mention the waste of the material and elastic too.  So before you take their word for it, do your own experiments with it to see if it's worth your time and trouble or not, first.

Wear a mask in the men’s room: Urinals can spray you with viruses, including COVID-19, in 5 seconds!   Well here in QC, you kind of have to as it's deemed to be a public space unlike your bathroom at home.

Isolation, inactivity during COVID-19 leaving half of Americans battling more aches and pains  Maybe incorporating some relaxing Yoga exercises, or perhaps for the more energetic calisthenics in your daily routine might help you maintain flexibility, and muscle tone if not muscle mass, which might make you feel better in the long run.  There are tons of books, magazines and videos on those subjects that can help get you started and  instruct you on how to do things properly so you don't hurt yourself. 

Handheld UV Light Devices That Kill COVID-19, Other Viruses Could Become As Common As Phone, Keys Yeah but probably only after the coronavirus is eradicated. As for killing off all other viruses.... That's about as bad idea as all the antibacterial soaps that's been on the market for ages and ages and giving antibiotics to everyone for everything.... That's the quickest way there is to causing everyone to get deathly ill from even the most benign virus or bacteria there is. We need viruses and bacteria in our environment so that our systems get used to them and know how to fight them when we come into contact with them again. Otherwise we'll all wind up like the bubble kids in hospitals who can't leave their bubble because if they come into even one most benign germ there is, it'll kill them because their immune system is either nonexistant or so compromised it's basically like it's nonexistant. That's what will happen to all of us if we start sterilizing our environments with all these anti-viral and antibacterial gizmos, and chemicals.  If you have a hospital that you want sterilized, it's an excellent idea, but otherwise, most of the rest of us, don't need it.

American charged under Quarantine Act amid accusations he ignored pandemic safety rules in Banff  Good! We need to send a message to the Americans that it's not okay to flout our pandemic laws and so he should have the books thrown at him and make him cough up the $750,000.00 or spend 6 months in jail (and I don't mean like the way the Chinese telecom woman is being held - in her posh mansion with an ankle bracelet - I mean jail! ). Once they see those headlines in the US, about one of their compatriots being fined that much or jailed for 6 months for deciding to take the "scenic route" to Alaska instead of going straight there, they might think twice before coming here and trying to pull the same tricks.

A Trans Refugee Shares How Tough It Is With Only $160 A Month For Food Most people on welfare have barely that much per month for food, some have even less, depending on how much of their monthly welfare cheque their rent and utilities gobbles up on them first.  You should've thought of that before you decided to make all the wrong life choices you made, including coming here as a "refugee". I'm sorry, but I have a real hard time feeling sorry for someone who purposely made all the wrong choices in life and then expects others to bail them out of the hole they dug themselves into. There are people who genuinely do need help through no fault of their own - like they're disabled, or some misfortune befell them that wasn't their fault at all - they just had the misfortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, type of deal. But you purposely decided to do something that was against the law in your own country and then decided that it wasn't safe for you there anymore so decided to hightail it out of there to some place safer like Canada, without thinking of how you'd support yourself or anything like that. Just thinking that once you get to this new place, they'll be so happy to have another degenerate like you that they'll just ply you with all your needs and riches to your hearts content. Sorry to disappoint you, but sometimes you have to take responsibility for your own plights in life and this is one of those times. So suck it up buttercup and learn to live with all the stupid choices you made and make the best of them.

Princess Mary of Denmark Apologizes for Forgetting Coronavirus Precautions and Shaking Hands I think there's still a lot of people around who also forget about the precautions, not sure if it's willingly or just because they genuinely forget.


Fact check: COVID-19 is deadlier than the 1918 Spanish flu and seasonal influenza   The authorities have found yet more ways to massage the numbers to fit their scenario to keep you scared, than the bare facts point to, as I've pointed out before. Instead of talking about percentage of population why don't they instead talk about percentage of cases vs deaths overall? That way we can see really how lethal it is. I mean if you have 500 million cases (as is the case with the Spanish flu) and 50 million deaths then you can say that it's pretty lethal because 10% of the victims died, regardless of the world population. Who cares what the population is if 99% of the world didn't get the disease? Like in this case. The total number of people who've gotten COVID19 world wide doesn't even add up to the total population of Canada (and relatively speaking we have one of the lowest population rates on earth) and still way less than 1 million died. I don't know the exact figures for the date, but I'll find them in a jiffy.... Hang on.... There's maybe just under 25 million cases (as the figure is from 2 days ago and it's just above 24 million) with maybe 900,000 deaths or so as the figure shown is just above 835,00 deaths from 2 days ago.  So it's not even 1/25th of those who've had it who've died from it. Regardless of the size of the population and if you want to put it like that 7 billion vs the 1.98 billion in 1918, 50 million deaths vs 900,000 deaths against a 7 billion population figure, that 900,000 figure is mere drop in the bucket compared to the 50 million for the Spanish flu's 1.98 billion population figure. So there's no comparison there, no matter how they try to massage the numbers. It's called "boggle the brain with BS".  That's what it amounts to.

‘We Can Manage Virus’: WHO Says Complete Lockdowns Not Required as Europe Frets Over Covid19 spikes, Oh now they say that, after everyone's wrecked their economies and families are in the poorhouses. This is how it should've been handled from the get-go.

After dining ban, takeaway waste clutters Hong Kong's pavements, parks and waterways  What's wrong with public garbage cans being placed around in various areas where people sit, relax, eat, etc? Geez here in the middle of the woods on the bike/walking path that the community made so that bicyclists and pedestrians wouldn't have to contend with a narrow rural road and fast moving traffic (80kmh), there's garbage cans and even recycle boxes - no seating, but still there's a garbage can and a recycle bin next to each other on the path. So if we can provide that in the middle of the woods on a bicycle/walking path, then a major city ought to be able to provide them near each bench or seating area regardless of whether food is sold nearby or not. That's just basic 101s on cutting down on litter. Then there's some nice hefty fines for littering too, that might work to quell the amount of litter being found everywhere.  But first you need the garbage and recycle bins so that those who don't need to be threatened can use them. If there aren't any to use well then what can you expect? No one is going to carry empty dirty food containers around with them until they get home. That's just totally unreasonable.

Covaxin, India’s 1st Coronavirus Vaccine, May be Available by End of This Year: Health Minister  Good for them! I'm happy they have something that might help to look forward to, unlike Canadians, who might see their vaccine at the end of never, thanks to the crooked, conniving, thieving communist Chinese (if the truth hurts & you don't like it,  bite me), & numbnuts in Ottawa. 

'Living in my car'? Fall semester online means college students are scrambling for housing, Wi-Fi   That is if they're lucky enough to have their courses online. I know that some colleges in Montreal are scrambling to find teachers to teach online. Our son was teaching the last semester at the school where he taught, online and he really didn't like it. He said that he was contracted by the school to teach 4 hours a day, but it wound up being something like 12-14 hours by the time he did all the work he had to do related to the class and course. He was supposed to give each student 1 on 1 time each day too and I think he said he had 24 students and he didn't want to give each one just 5 minutes of time because 3D CAD is complicated and might need more than 5 minutes to explain something, but he couldn't give them each 1/2 hour's worth of time either because then that would be an additional 12 hours, plus the 4 of online teaching, and he still needed to eat, sleep, shower, unwind etc and that didn't even include grading their work that they did. So even though some colleges are looking for teachers and even though he lost some work during the pandemic (interior design/architecture - building trades involved - were put on hold for a couple of months and it's been slow to pick up again because of uncertainty) he's not sure he wants to apply to any of them to teach online because he won't get paid for all the extra hours and even if he did, he doesn't know if he could manage all those hours to begin with. So maybe teachers who've had a taste of teaching online since the pandemic began might not be so gung-ho to do it again. So there might be a teacher shortage, unless things change - like it's better organized or they get paid for the total time they spend doing it, and not just the initial "classroom teaching time".  

107-year-old Maharashtra Woman Beats Covid-19 Days After Undergoing Spine Surgery  Wow! That's amazing! She must have a really strong constitution!



Beijing says residents can go mask-free as China COVID cases hit new lows But yet they still needed to hijack our vaccine for some reason. I hope because they're going mask free, they all get it and die, especially the idiots that decided it was a good idea to hijack the vaccine. It'd serve them right! That alone would cut down on population - just think of all the useless dog & cat eaters we could get rid of. Hey they asked for. Actually they asked for much worse than that, but bozo brains in Ottawa is either too chicken or stupid to give them what they deserve. What they should do with the telecom ahem (I have several names for her, but none of them are nice), is throw her in solitary confinement in one of our worst prisons, like they did to our guys. No more of this posh mansion house arrest for her. I'd start treating her the way they're treating our guys. Or give her to the US, never mind the court proceedings. Why worry about rule of law when the corrupt conniving Chinese don't!?! Like my father used to say "there's more than 1 way to skin a rabbit". 

Would you pay $165 for a coronavirus antibodies test?  That's a little steep, but at this point yeah, I'd pay for one, but below $50, anything above that, I wouldn't. 






How will office life be different in a pandemic?  You mean there's actually office life again? Because everyone I know of is still working from home, except my daughter-in-law who's a nurse, so can't. 

Help us out of internet 'Dark Age,' rural municipalities plead  We had problems getting high speed internet too. We had to go with a cable company because it was the only one who would connect us to their network and we stayed with them for a couple of decades before Bell deigned to add that extra mile of high fibre wire in our area. From about 2,000 until last year we had no choice as the only company that would connect us was a cable company, because we lived too far from Bell's connection box (which was 1 mile away). It took them pretty much 19 years to add that extra bit of wire in order to provide their internet services too, to compete with the cable company. So it's no surprise this is going on in Ontario - Eastern Ontario on top of that as we live in Western Quebec - so near the Eastern Ontario border.




Behind the scenes as Montreal schools prepare for first day back  Some have already gone back and already it's not good. 



Coronavirus antibodies tests 'put public at risk'  I think I'd trust my own antibodies over some manufactured vaccine that gawd only knows what's in it, or who tinkered with it, to do what, etc... Naw I'd take my chances and rely on my antibodies if I have any, before I rely on a vaccine.









The odds of catching Covid-19 on an airplane are slimmer than you think, scientists say  Who were those scientists working for? An independant company, the government (who may or may not have a stake in the airline business - like Canada for instance), or the airline business itself? 




COVID-19's death and suffering could lead us to rebirth, as the bubonic plague did in Europe  The saying goes "there's a silver lining behind every dark cloud", though in this case, it's really hard to see at the moment.



Coronavirus fears spur teacher protests, resignations and retirements  It's not just fear of the virus it's also the rigamarole of teaching online that some of them probably don't like too.


Pandemic pushes expansion of 'hospital-at-home' treatment Maybe in the states, but here in Canada the only thing going on at home is us looking after us because no doctors will treat us at home. 

Pointe-Claire’s Bronya Health gets approval to distribute SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Test  Now if someone would only get approved to distribute rapid antibodies tests that would be amazing.


A 19-year-old has died of COVID-19 in Quebec: health authorities  Just in case you were still thinking that this was exclusively an old folks disease.

Cold and flu convergence with COVID-19 has doctors bracing for service strain  I can believe it, especially in Kitchener, considering in 2012 (ergo no COVID in the picture), it was going to take from the end of August until mid-December for a stage 4 cancer patient to see an oncologist there.  She would've died mid October if she didn't come home for her last Thanksgiving with us, and us taking her to a hospital in Montreal where they managed to prolong her life until after the New Year.  But the night she was admitted to the hospital the doctor in the ER said she wouldn't have lasted the night if we didn't bring her in when we did. We wanted her to go in earlier (when she first came home - which was about a week before she got taken in) but she insisted on staying here to have Thanksgiving dinner with us, so the next day we took her in. If we hadn't have, she would've died that night. So she wouldn't have even lived long enough to see an oncologist in Kitchener after getting her stage IV cancer diagnosis at the end of August. So um yeah I can see them being strained to the eyeballs if under normal conditions they can't manage someone with stage 4 cancer before they die.




Israel opens floating cinema for coronavirus-safe viewing  Sounds like a lot more fun than drive-ins are. 




Can you get coronavirus via secondhand smoke? The smell is a warning sign. Do these so-called "scientists" even hear what they're saying? Seriously? If you can smell the smoke that means you're breathing air that was just in someone else's lungs. Well hello there clueless scientists.... Just walking by someone who is breathing - you know inhaling and EXHALING, you'll probably be breathing in some of the exhaled air, whether there's smoke in it or not. It's just with the smoke in the air,  and you smelling it, it's easier to detect that it was in someone else's lungs, but there's plenty of people who don't smoke and still breathe, who's exhaled air you're breathing in. 


Refrigerators full of food are popping up on streets around Miami. Here’s why  That's awesome. I hope it's helping a lot of needy people during this time.

Former Navy SEAL from Bin Laden raid banned by Delta for not complying with mask rule  Good for Delta! It doesn't matter who you are, if you have a nose and mouth and breath you should be wearing a mask in cramped quarters like airplane cabins.
