Pardon me? I self-isolated before it was mandatory because the remote community I live in has a high elderly population - so enough with your typical, us vs them arguments - it gets old. I'm actually back in precautionary quarantine after a trip to film wolves in BC... You're the one who used two non-serious cases reported in Manitoba to laugh about the actual fact that it affects the elderly in nursing homes... that is the definition of twisting information.

I mean the whole point of revolutionizing something is to break barriers - so obviously the entire point is that there's only a handful... because its dominated by older white guys... Give Beirness or Orlesky a shot... I'm sure both of them can forget names, miscall plays and lead awkward interviews with Keith Urban just as well as any guy

I guess I fail to see how anyone’s stance in vaccines affects the basic facts that covid affects the elderly much more severely than the general populace however this fact seems to be wilfully ignored by the same posters who just called down J5 for not supporting his argument with experts and ‘accepted facts’ just interesting to watch how information is twisted on all sides

You seemed to be aligning my statement of facts with an anti vaccine conspiracy

Ah yes the imaginary covid vaccine ha and the sad response that you are either pro or anti vaccines and there is no in between ill stick with my hep and polio vaccines thanks - and wait for covid herd immunity - its getting close

Yes this is correct However even within that equation, the elderly are disproportionately represented in icu and deaths 60% of deaths in BC were over 80 60% of cases were 30-60 1 out of 318 cases of community spread was from the outdoors

- 7 deaths (man 70s, woman 80s, woman 60s, woman 60s, man 50s, man 60s, man 70s) Seems pretty elderly to me... I can only quote BC - 21 deaths under 60, 140 deaths over 60 - vast majority of deaths and hospitalizations related to nursing homes

The actual facts are that Covid is lethal to the elderly (over 70) while the majority of cases are in the 30-60 range It is also a fact that the majority of those deaths were in nursing homes. It is pretty funny (and sad I guess) watching the same guys who shouted down J5 ignore actual data and facts...

Rod Black says dumb things but he doesn't outwardly cheer for ONE team... Suitor does. Pederson is a disciple. I think its time for a female voice as PBP instead of more old white guys...

Pederson. By a long shot. Can you fkn imagine watching a Rod Pederson/Glen Suitor game??

Rod Pederson... that's the funniest thing I've read on this forum for a long long time Hire Durant as his partner while you're at it

BC reporting numbers on Covid... 70% of deaths were over 80 years old (25% over 90) 60% of cases were 30-60 years old (12% of total deaths - 21 people) Majority of hospitalizations - 70-80 years old Waiting for the second wave from the demonstrations No concerts or mass gatherings until we have a vaccine...

Just a tad ironic that the US finally outwardly embraces a totalitarian state policy on the anniversary of Tiannamen

I love how Bernie is always criticized for never having a plan... and he's always the only one with an actual clear plan Meanwhile Joe Biden is going to have some 'discussions'... and start thinking about things

Nah - Fox News is still telling their base that its AntiFA and 'foreign agitators' that are the problem... Trump will still get re-elected even with all this garbage

I think they were just referring to the alcoholism and periodic outbursts...?

Yeah but besides that...

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-how-shoring-up-hospitals-for-covid-19-contributed-to-canadas-long/ Worth the two minutes to sign up for free access to Covid articles... The three provinces that are Canada's covid hotspots - Quebec, Ontario, Alberta - all transferred elderly covid-positve patients from hospitals to nursing homes... a major part of our covid lockdown response unintentionally increased the death toll In March, while BC increased nursing home safety protocols... Quebec institute a 'load shedding' policy - paying nursing homes to take patients who were in hospitals... Ontario transferred 2800 patients to nursing homes... Alberta discharged 900 patients to nursing homes... all before lockdown started... Sweden made the same mistakes - not allowing sick patients to be transferred to hospitals... Denmark got it right - by investing in seniors care and allowing sick covid patients to be treated immediately The final death toll has very little to do with the general population - its about how different countries treat and fund their elderly

Heard that one - CBC has its super lame-o moments but we are very lucky to have a national broadcaster that provides counterpoint to the corporate media

You think George W Bush endorsing Biden is a good thing??? Trump will destroy them with his drain the swamp rhetoric yet again... Everyone falling for the same rope a dope...

100% agree

You're joking right... these are people who have just been pushed out of the GOP and are looking for a candidate - this is scary not 'good news'

Dems would have blamed the looting on 'Bernie Bros'...
