how effective masks and social distancing are at preventing the common cold..... honestly, something I hope stays a part of our culture long term. 

It's absolutely ****** that several Asian countries (Japan, South Korea) have had this mentality for years regarding masks. And here, we have covidiot ***** trying to equate mask-wearing with tyranny and oppression. It's just nauseating.

I've posted this a few times, I think, but it bears repeating: This pandemic has really revealed just how spoiled a certain chunk of our population really is. They have absolutely no ******* clue what oppression really is...

The ponzi scheme is done. I guess they have $7 Million dollars of Manitoba's money. Although, I bet that some of those funds will wind up at an undisclosed location in Costa Rica.

I cant see how. Manitoba is only on pace for shot 1 by then. I didn't think that was enough for herd immunity.

So I'm not sure about herd immunity, but the prevailing theory on Twitter is that we need to hit 75% 1st dose and 20% 2nd dose in order to relax restrictions and keep the daily case counts down. We're on pace to hit that 75/20 by June 6th. Not sure if that equates to herd immunity, but it'll be enough protection to ease restrictions and start getting back to normal for good...

One shot is still really good. I read somewhere that the efficacy is around 75 to 80% for covid and 98% against serious complications and death. The second dose pushes it to the +90% range.

Odds of restaurants having 33% capacity,  the whole population avoiding friends and family,  activities being permanently cancelled,  sporting events being fan free and all those other goodies which are impacting these numbers are at about zero percent chance of that being a long term culture thing.

Apparently the government didn't actually pay them
