Had the first death in our area from Covid 19 the other day. Our district has 62 confirmed cases besides the one death. Things are getting real.

All I think I know is that over the 20-30 years the headlong rush to globalization and automation has torn the heart out of the western middle classes. Add to that corporate policies of out sourcing,...

The Province not looking only at the models but for a peak and then a sustained dropping off of infections/deaths. Don't ever think that after a 2 weeks there is going to be a miraculous decline. All...

Looks like the Premier of Ontario will extend the social distancing/self isolation for another month.

If you are referring to the common seasonal flu as compared to Covid 19, the stats are out there. I think you will find the Covid 19 has killed far more. It is looking it will stick around for a long...

Yea, it is a balancing act. You need to watch enough to know what is going on daily but not enough to drive you crazy.

The other day I mentioned we had our first confirmed case of Covid 19. It was the husband of a couple returning from Florida and now the wife is a confirmed case as well as an individual in their 20s...

Another war movie to watch is The Cross of Iron with James Coburn.

Just replace infect with the old four letter word and it might make more sense. A small attempt at humour on my part.

You know, for those that don't want to take precautions like self isolation or social distancing seriously I say they can all go and infect themselves. New pandemic appropriate saying. ;) :angel:

Yea, that is the point. Too many people still have their head up their backside about the importance of self isolation and social distancing. Consider also Floridians travel too so everyone has a...

Yes, he and his wife went into self isolation immediately on their return. On Mar 25 the Feds invoked the Quarantine Act making mandatory for those people returning to quarantine themselves for 14...

The first confirmed case in my city was a man returning from Florida so it is hazardous for more than Florida.

Some countries are getting serious about enforcing social distancing/lockdown.

Simply put, the reality is what is happening in Italy, Spain and more than likely a lot of the rest of Western Europe at the moment.
