People were being forcibly removed from their homes. I'm just saying that I believe other than military & police action a mandatory stay inside order is impossible to enforce. A Calgary business owner living in Beijing said that every night the police come to his apartment building every night. They chain & padlock the building so no one can leave. Then they come back & unlock it in the morning. When he asked the police about being locked in & unable to get out if there was a fire he said they acted like they didn't care.

I think that stat needs to be added in as the number of infected people sure seems low. With zero cases again. There is no way just 250 people are infected in Manitoba with Covid 19. No there is not only 250. I know a lady who lives with her fiancé, and she tested positive. They didn’t even bother testing him, and he has it too. But that’s one case, can only imagine there are other scenarios where people have it but won’t get tested

The more people that are tested, the higher the numbers will be as to how many are infected. It gives us a more accurate idea of the number of people sick & where.

Dr Roussain explained they other day that if a close contact of a known positive develops symptoms that is automatically considered a presumed positive. The two they removed from the list were basically that. Once tested it was discovered they did not have it and the cases were removed. The idea behind not testing that person is pretty simple. The positive test is followed by an order to self isolate for 14 days, being a close contact to a known case is also a self isolation for 2 weeks. Why have a presumed positive travel outside their home/community to be told to do sometime they should already be doing and getting the test itself puts others at risk?

There is even strong evidence that the desire to retain slaves was really at the core of the American revolution.

Hey I’m just talking from my experience from the people I know. He lives with her and they won’t test him. So they won’t put him in the data base if he hasn’t been tested Edited April 18, 20205 yr by Tiny759

And some who have it are not being tested. My friend showed up for testing and was told they wouldn’t test even though all the symptoms were present, and the health care workers acknowledged it as well. My friend them said “I’m an essential worker” (they are, not lying) and they reversed their decision and tested. Results are pending, but it shows that they are still being selective in who they test.

April 19, 20205 yr comment_470800 I was really struck by how many people I always assumed were intelligent and reasonable (some I always knew word morons) that are really showing their true selves. Conspiracy theorists. Deniers. People who just don’t understand how contagious viruses are spread. And it’s not even political. I have a friend in Toronto. Very left. She’s all in on this being a hoax and a 5G conspiracy.

Abortion rights protect the woman, the individual; social distancing and vaccination protects the public at large. In summary, swing and miss. Cute though, I'd debate with her for hours.

I suppose they think every single case of the flu is recorded?
