Whoo Hoo! After my husband left the slow trickle charger on the battery overnight, it had a full charge this morning and we were able to use the car again without having to buy a new battery! So we went and did all the errands we planned on doing yesterday. Having gotten some cash back awards in the mail, basically what I bought, I only had to pay half price for.
On top of that no matter where I looked in the headlines today there was cause for major hope! Except for us Canadians, because of the dearth of vaccines, we could be looking at a very serious 3rd wave of the neverending doom and gloom plague, compared to most other places that are talking about the virus being in a form of retreat. As the numbers of cases, and deaths are declining and in some cases drastically. But no one can figure out why.
Personally, I think it's got to do with herd immunity. I know Fauci and other bigwig white coats will disagree with me, but unless there's a built in timer in how long it can continue to spread (which is highly doubtful - as that would be a first quite literally) there's almost no other explanation. But the bigwigs in white coats will say yeah but not enough people got vaccinated or had the virus for herd immunity to start occurring now.
Or so they think.... But what about people like me, our son, his wife, our neighbours and others that had very mild symptoms that sounds an awful lot like Covid19, who didn't seek medical attention because they weren't affected by it severely enough to require that? Or the asymptomatic ones who had it, but never knew about it?
But here in Canada we'll never know because for some f'd in the head reason we're not allowed to have antibody tests to see if we ever had it. Which if we did would bring the numbers of those with immunity against it, up and maybe provide an answer as to herd immunity or not being the cause of the dropping cases. But like I said, we'll never know because we have idiots and ash holes at the helm in this country.
I do know one thing that according to our local paper that we get, the amount of cases in our region has dropped by over 68% just since January. And I believe Canada wide the statistic is something like 17% reduction in cases. It's definitely not because m/any of us are vaccinated, so it might have to do with naturally acquired herd immunity. And that might be the case the world over?
So just those facts alone, went a long, long way to lifting my mood and giving me a reason to smile for a change.
But I hope Turdface is wrong about the 3rd wave hitting us though. And instead we are in the same category the rest of the world seems to be in, that the virus will pretty much have had it around April. If so, that would be the most awesome news I've read in over a year now!
So now on with the headlines for the day..... Which reminds me, I'm taking the weekend off so the next headlines will only be posted on Monday or Tuesday.... Anyhow, now on with it...
We’ll Have Herd Immunity by April This article says their cases dropped by 77% in 6 weeks - and they've been getting vaccinated against it, left, right & center, whereas we haven't but still in our area the cases have dropped by over 68% in the last 6 weeks. So I think herd immunity is already here and acting to bring the case numbers down.
Johns Hopkins Doctor Predicts Covid ‘Will Be Mostly Gone By April’ Oh that would be soooooo awesome!!!!! And I sincerely hope he's right!
Coronavirus: A hyped-up flu or a fatal pandemic? Hallelujah! Amen! This is precisely what I said early on in my blog here. I compared the deaths from it to deaths from the flu for earlier years in Canada and basically it was just about on par with the deaths from flus of previous years. What makes it harder to figure out now is that most flus have a "season" - they last a few months and they're gone only to return later that year for a few more months, but this virus hasn't left us alone even for a few months. So instead of comparing flu numbers for a few months it a few months with a full year. Well of course if it's a full year you're going to have more deaths than if it were for the same amount of time as the other milder flu's seasonal duration was for.
Is it really all that brazen? I don't know as I'd call it that as I've seen and read reports about Fort Detrick having something to do with it too.
Well those are definitely much nicer tactics than those employed by the jack bootied gestapo gangs in QC, Canada and the UK, where they gouge the eyes out of your head in fines and demand you pay a king's ransom for a quarantine hotel or risk 10 years in jail. As I'm the stubborn sort who despises being TOLD what to do, but will go along with polite requests usually, I'd probably comply with the Chinese demands using their methods of getting compliance than the jack bootied gestapo wanna be dictators methods. If anything, I'd rebel against those ash holes. Especially if I were half the age I am now. Euuuuuuuu I'd have no problem telling those ash holes where to stick their ridiculous tickets and quarantine dives. But if I were asked nicely and offered a nice incentive to comply, I just might do that without thinking 2x about it.
Taking a page out of the gestapo bootied draconian wanna be dictators ruling the UK, I can see.... Well lucky it's only $10,000 Cdn and not 10,000 Pounds sterling because that's probably about $20,000 Cdn. Even still gouging like that should be ILLEGAL EVEN IF IT'S THE GOV'T DOING THE GOUGING!!!!!! I sure hope that after this is over you all wind up with a taste of your own medicine, when you get sued, charged with and tried for abuse of power, criminal negligence causing mass murder and you f'n well name it. It will suit all you all fallutin' ash holes right! Gawd, I can't wait for all of you to get thrown out of office and into jail. I hope there IS a spring election and at the end of that election you find yourselves without any parliamentary seats, but instead a nice stiff cot in the local prison to sit on and reflect on WHY you're there in the first place.
Why Canada is falling behind in Covid vaccinations It's not very complicated. We have a gullible asinine ash hole at the helm. That's why.
And what about stealing joint venture vaccines????? Shouldn't that have stopped before China even did it?????
Liberals move to add weeks to EI, COVID-19 benefits for workers and parents Once again more help for those who don't need it anywhere near as bad as those who keep getting ignored by this jackash gov't does, like the homeless, the disabled, the seniors, the working poor.... Etc....
Good! I'm glad I wasn't the only one that noticed the lamestream media's role in promoting conspiracy theories and then trying to blame it on conspiracy theory sites.
CORRECTED-Pfizer says South African variant could significantly reduce protective antibodies Euuu not good. Not good at all.
Biden Outlines How Trump 'Failed' To Help Americans Get COVID-19 Vaccines I suppose the fact that most of the gov't branches whose heads didn't like Trump and tried everything to circumvent and obstruct his efforts in everything he tried to do, had absolutely nothing to do with that eh? I'm sorry I am NOT a Trump fan at all, because even I'm not so obtuse I couldn't recognize the obstructionism going on over there in the US gov't branches when it came to following Trumps orders to fulfilling his requests. I mean weeks before the US election the FDA flat out said NO they weren't going to approve any vaccines before the election, but then within a week after the election they approved the Pfizer one. Obstructionist, favouritism, what? You tell me and we'll both know, but I can guarantee not all of it was Trump's fault, as much as the media, the demoncrats and the public at large like to blame him for everything, no matter how ridiculous that might be.
They never did list the 10 countries. I really wish they did though so we'd know where to lay the blame, because I know for sure it's not Canada. Then this article also has the nerve to insult Canada for taking vaccines from COVAX to which we had a right to do, BUT THE ARTICLE ALSO NEGLECTED TO MENTION WE HAVEN'T SEEN HIDE NOR HAIR OF THOSE VACCINES EITHER LIKE WE HAVE BARELY SEEN HIDE & HAIR OF THE ONES WE PAID FOR! Like Pfizer and Moderna! I mean if you want to start slamming countries AT LEAST GET THE FACTS STRAIGHT & ALL OF THEM & NOT JUST SOME OF THEM, those being the facts that suits your storyline. I'd call that unethical & unconscionable reporting. Or as Trump used to call them FAKENEWS!!!!
Mandatory hotel quarantine rates far lower than $2,000 touted by government It looks like the hotel managements have more of a conscience than the f'n no good lousy crooked wanna be dictator at the helm does. Considering they could've easily used the gov't mandate to charge that much to the customers and keep the difference between what things cost them (gov't included) and what the gov't said the charges would be.
Yup have to keep us scared and compliant even still, especially now that we know the numbers are dropping on their own.
COVID-19 variants will drive resurgence without stronger health measures, modelling warns I don't believe a f'n thing that lying genocidal witch says! She's done nothing but lie to us from the get go, so why all of a sudden would she start telling the truth now? She has an agenda and that's to keep us scared and compliant and at home shivering in our boots being too afraid to go out let alone defy the ash hole gestapo jack booted wanna be dictators.
That's precisely what they want, that way all the alphabet soup agencies of the UN like the IMF, WTO and WEF can take us over and enslave the population and take all our natural resources for themselves to sell on the world markets, while giving us nothing in return just a "forgiveness for our debts". That's what sheitehead in Ottawa has always been about either selling us out to China or the UN or both. Anyhow, that fits in nicely with the ambitions of the Klaus Schwab and the Great Reset.
Canada and G7 boost vaccine funding but won’t share their doses yet So in other words they're giving them MONEY BUT NOT VACCINES and as we Canadians know already we can't inject money into our systems and hope it fights the virus for us, that we need vaccines to do that and if we don't have any, having more money isn't going to help the situation. So in other words the G7's efforts are almost as useless as tits on a bull is.
That's not right.
Quebec public health director advises loosening COVID-19 restrictions on March 8: documents That would be awesome! Can't wait!
It's only really a problem because the gov't isn't getting their cut (taxes), otherwise I don't see a problem.
Canadians are angry about vaccine delays. It’s hurting Trudeau’s poll numbers: Ipsos Good! I hope his rating plummet and we never have to see that scuzzbucket back in parliament again!
An American woman's pandemic parking bill in Toronto: almost $3K Holy cow! I used to think we were getting our eyes gouged out when we used to go visit our daughter in the hospital before she died of cancer. We were paying daily rates for an entire day because sometimes she'd want us to stay there with her until we were ready to pass out and crawl in bed alongside her, so quite late at night after having arrived there early to mid afternoon. Anyhow, between that and the gas (as gas was $1.50 a litre then and we had a car that guzzled gas) it was quite expensive to go in and back on a daily basis, but we did because we knew she was in stage 4 of her cancer and so she probably didn't have a lot of time left, so we wanted to spend as much time with her as we could, so that's why we wound up paying such exorbitant parking fees - hospital parking fees. Instead of paying directly for medical care, we have medicare here and exorbitant hospital parking fees (which is where hospitals get a major amount of their funding from). Essentially we paid the same amount in hospital parking fees in the 4 months she was there as this woman paid in a whole year in Toronto. It's good she didn't leave it in a hospital parking lot, or she'd have to mortgage her house just to pay the bill.
Cloris Leachman's cause of death revealed as stroke, COVID-19 also a contributing factor My mother liked this actress.
Trudeau warns of a dangerous third wave as Canada copes with a vaccine 'drought' All I can say is I hope Turdface is wrong and that if there is any dangerous third wave it confines itself to his and his family's quarters.
Gwyneth Paltrow reveals she had Covid-19 and is suffering from 'brain fog' Maybe some of her crazy goop mixtures will help with that.
And that's it for this installment of the headlines. Will return on Monday or Tuesday with more, as I'm sure there'll still be plenty left. In the meantime take care and stay well.
