Maybe because they have an older population and only a handful of ICU beds? And would have to fly out patients into another province if their ICU is full?

Why not state so then? The only information I found was they would be distributed to the provinces based on pouplation.

You are supposed to keep your mask on when you get vaccinated. You can just hold it in your hand for the moment you get tested.

Can't do that for phototherapy. I'm sure it's not the only medical treatment where it can't stay on.

In a roll-out that we want speed and safety, I feel it is important to note that the team may have bumps and will need to retool. If you want it perfect, you won't get fast. If you want it fast, you won't get perfect. The trick is for them to respond quickly and not have chronic failures. If they don't, then beat them up. If you want them to go slower and with tighter controls, then, that is likely something to feed up the channel. If you want them to go faster, with individuals responsible for understanding that their may be queuing challenges, then, tell them that. (or, let them do it, knowing that they have multiple million critics and they are people working hard todo their best)

re-quoted because there's a lot of nuance here.
 
And it just made me think of the nightmare that is current "containment" provisions for front line workers.

Acrylic both sides. Front one has no speaker vents, so huge sound barrier. Back one has "door", which is so flimsy, it's always totally failing. There's a lot of tape and bulldog clips in play here. And we're always on the wrong side of a barrier (I am an "over-rider", which means I must visit multiple stations per shift, often-mid-order, and there's a s**t ton of bodies and barriers making it more difficult).

Management of human interaction is difficult and complex.

Or that those who were vulnerable have already died? 60 some spaces have "opened up" in a B___ LTC facility.

Why not name the facility? What do you know about those who have already died and their cause of death in that facility? Garry's favorite Aunt died alone 2 days ago in the Misericordia Hospital Winnipeg. We were never allowed to spend even one minute with her in the two months that she lay dying. Only one of her Brothers was. He is in his 80's as well. It will be left up to him and his wife to iron out the details of a 'service'. Just another blip in the radar of this virtual madness. Not Covid ... but what difference does it make at this stage of the 'we are all just a number' game.

I'm reading that we shouldn't give the Covid vaccine until 90 days after someone has had Covid. Why? Because for one....it is preventative and not therapeutic. And two, if we wait the 90 days it will have a longer lasting effect.
Sooooo, that seems to pose a problem because all of the LTC' s that had Covid outbreaks have had their residents vaccinated right away. I know in my area we've had large outbreaks and vaccinations given very shortly after it was declared over.
Will this mean they will all need to be revaccinated very soon again? Or that it's not really the vaccine that is stopping the outbreaks?

Here's an article about waiting 90 days to get the Covid vaccine if you were a Covid patient and were treated with monclonal antibodies or convalescent plasma:

CDC recommends some coronavirus patients wait 90 days to get vaccine

COVID-19 patients treated with monoclonal antibodies or convalescent plasma should wait 90 days before getting the vaccine, the CDC says.

Some controls are pretty simple ie. Distance marjers for line ups. Yez it takes a bit of time to set those up but not that long and the vaccine shipment arrived on the weekend with appointments being taken on Wed. The shipment wasn't a surprise.

What concerns are you referring to?

My first response was deleted. Not sure why but it does not matter. I hope you get all your concerns addressed one way or another ... there is a lot of information to sort through around this whole experiment.

Bill Gates' daughter Jennifer jokes about conspiracy theory after getting Covid-19 vaccine | CNN

Jennifer K. Gates, the daughter of Microsoft founder Bill Gates, got her first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine on Friday and offered a lighthearted debunking of one conspiracy theory around it.
www.cnn.com www.cnn.com

If Bill Gates were conspiring against the world with this vaccine, she wouldn’t be among the early recipients. The theory falls apart. If it were an evil conspiracy, poor and vulnerable people would be the guinea pigs.
 
What news we read affects us so much. It is one reason why I try to read Fox and such pieces occasionally to offset my more liberal Canadian media

but we had a conversation with a Florida friend this weekend. Of course have their vaccines but they are 70. She was so pleased with how their governor has handled things. Back open, all is good. Though at least the USA is vaccinating fast. Some days two million a day

and yet Florida , with a population of 22 million has 31,000 deaths compared to Canada of 35 million has 22,000 deaths

but Florida news and Fox News tout that all is well


i am still stunned that Canada has 22,000 deaths. Vaccines can’t come fast enough

You forgot that she has been in his house all of her childhood, so he has planted his microchip already soon after her birth. Now he programmed her to get a vaccine.

I think I read that s-f story once. :nerd:

Middlesex-London Health Unit starts booking for 80+ tomorrow with shots starting on Saturday. Indigenous people over 55 can book starting today. So it looks like this area is a bit ahead of the game. Crossing fingers that that keeps up.
