CANADIENS27 0 Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 An inevitable result of this crisis is an emergency room doctor has committed suicide after treating numerous patients and contracting the virus. It's a wonder this hasn't been a more frequent occurrence. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kinot-2 0 Posted April 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) Ok,,, let's crunch the numbers. Quebec has around 8 mil. people, Ont. has around 14 mil. people. Quebec has over 26,000 cases and over 1,700 deaths. Ont. has a pop. of over 14 mil. people, with 15,700 cases with just over 1,100 deaths. Now, Legault wants to send public school children back to school, but just don't hug you grandparents. The high school and university students wouldn't go back until Sept. IMO, he's throwing the children under the school bus. Personally, I wouldn't be letting my child go back to school. It's almost as though the kids are lab rats. IMO, cannon fodder. IMO, that's what Trump would do. Edited April 30, 2020 by kinot-2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IMO, that's what Trump would do. Its pretty stupid for sure. And nonsensical for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that these children all live with adults - many of whom are at high risk. So even if you think that children wont be affected (and that seems to be being disproved in europe) if you open up schools you might as well open up everything because they are coming home to the rest of the population. Its not just seniors who are at risk. Anyone with heart, lung or several other conditions are at risk. Sure, they may be less likely to die - if properly treated - but if you allow this thing to spread the treatment will be far less likely with hospitals being overrun. Its like we havent been watching italy and spain go through this exact thing for the past few months. Lunacy. Here in BC the Govt announced that its "highly unlikely" any children will be back at school before fall. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes. Its when the thread goes way off line (like it did a few weeks back) into a complete political discussion, that it needs to be taken to the other thread in the lounge.
