Coronavirus

Wow.....merci de nous rapporter ta mauvaise expérience......vraiment dommage......cela va sûrement permettre aux autorités de suivre la situation de près et de s'ajuster.......évidemment on vit dans une société ou la liberté de manifester est fondamentale

MAIS faut bien aussi tenir compte des CONSENSUS SOCIAUX......aux autorités d'agir en conséquence.

Israel to offer booster shots to 50 year olds and up:

Israel set to become first country in world to offer COVID boosters to over-50s

Health Ministry expert panel backs move, which is expected to be okayed by ministry chief; HMOs say people can begin scheduling appointments for 3rd shot on Friday

...and i really believe some other countries like Canada and U.S will do the same SOON....avec le variant DELTA qui fait de plus en plus de ravage.

 

[IamNY]

^Agreed. NY positivity rate has been slowly increasing even though we have 69.5% fully vaccinated and 77% with at least the one shot. One of the things you can't see in the NY stats is all of the people from different states and other countries that we come into contact with. Our positivity rate is over 3% and was about .25% when the summer started. Shit, I'll take a third shot when they start giving them out. I work in NYC a few days a week and want to be as fully protected as possible from those around me.

QUÉBEC....le nombre de cas continue d'augmenter....plus de 400 ce jour.....et le tiers des cas à Montréal est en provenance de voyageurs internationaux doublement vaccinés mais porteur du variant DELTA .....de quoi tenir les autorités sur un pied d'alerte...évidemment on savait que ce n'était qu'une question de temps. Les hospitalisations---pour le moment---demeurent sous contrôle.
Une bonne nouvelle quand même nos 18--29 ans sont maintenant à 73% ayant recu leur 1ère dose....on lâche pas.

and a third of the cases in Montreal are from international travelers who have been doubly vaccinated but who carry the DELTA variant

C'mon, if that were true they would have closed the border again.

Update - I stand corrected. I just read about the 1/3 of new cases from international travelers in the Montreal Gazette. I still think it's bullshit, but I guess the media needs to blame somebody for this.

 

[gaby]

Well.....je n'invente rien....it's from Dr.David Kaiser de la Direction régionale de santé publique de Montréal .....and yes it will probably rendre les autorités plus prudentes envers une ouverture encore plus importante de nos frontières.

Yes and even with these huge increases, Canada still has less new cases per day than Florida.

Florida isn't the only state, I'm sure most states would have more.

Nuance.....après recherche ce sont les Québécois voyageant À L'ÉTRANGER qui ramènent le DELTA si présent à l'étranger.....délicate situation à gérer.....

Media is quoting the minister.

It's not completely clear but it sounds like Dubé is blaming Ottawa for not properly enforcing quarantine requirements and blaming slow bureaucracy

Voyageurs étrangers | Québec demande à Ottawa de serrer la vis

Le gouvernement Legault tire la sonnette d’alarme alors qu’une hausse des cas de COVID-19 est observée chez les voyageurs qui entrent au Québec. Le ministre Christian Dubé demande à Ottawa d’assurer « un suivi strict et assidu des quarantaines » et l’invite à « reconsidérer » le retour du séjour...

WTF daily cases have almost doubled in a week. At this rate of increase there won`t be any un-vaccinated left by year end....they will have all died off.
Trudeau keep that border shut!!

Manifestation prévue cet après--midi downtown en face du complexe fédéral Guy Favreau par le groupe QUÉBEC DEBOUT wow ...alors profitez en bien.....vous ne resterez peut être pas debout pour encore bien longtemps.....lol....à suivre.

Florida isn't the only state, I'm sure most states would have more.

You are right and I made a calculation error that was off by a factor of 10.
Florida has 10 times as many daily cases as all of Canada.

Manifestation contre le passeport vaccinal prévue à Montréal

Le ministre de la Santé doit annoncer cette semaine les modalités du passeport vaccinal, une manifestation est planifiée à Montréal, samedi.

Sont-ils seulement contre le passeport vaccinal?

Surprised ?

The delta variant is extremely contagious. Extremely. Expect cases to double at a very rapid rate in Canada. It's out there. It's just a question of time.

The is a number called R0 which quantifies how contagious something is. Ebola is a 2. The original Covid was a 3. Delta is a 7. Chickenpox which is extremely contagious is a 10.

Very little current constraints, still a good number of unvaccinated, expect some interesting times over the next 3 months.

Let's put it this way, in 3 months from now a lot of people will have antibodies, from vaccination or "à la naturelle"


PS. Waloo posted an article about this months ago. At the time it seemed to make no sense. It makes a lot of sense now.

And what’s your point?

MANIF à Montréal....oh et c'est MAX BERNIER qui leadait la marche en quête d'électeurs ...quelques milliers pour le protéger cette fois..lol .....alors grosso modo pour revendiquer la liberté de choix----passeport vaccinal ,vaccination----- et tutti frutti......bien oui...allez y choisissez le risque de contaminer vos proches et de tomber malade.....et vous implorerez alors famille et amis à se faire vacciner....my 2 cents.

I found this interesting, especially the video within the article. I guess things in the US were going all too well for too long according to the media and they finally were able to get their pound of flesh. I didn't go to Sturgis this year or last because of the COVID concern, but the longest running motorcycle rally in the US shouldn't be part of the medias annual super spreader scare tactics. The message should be to get vaccinated. What was interesting in the video was that it shows super spreader events happening all over the country not just South Dakota. What it also pointed out is how many in minority communities that are just not getting vaccinated. Fear works to increase viewership, it doesn't motivate people to get vaccinated. The politics of COVID is beyond ridiculous no matter what your views are. Get vaccinated, if not run the risk of catching COVID and having an unfavorable bout with it.
