    1. They haven’t thought those up yet although I’m sure it’s spinning around somewhere within that empty brain space

    2. @Butterfly Lady Unfortunately they have. That’s why they keep talking about “new strains” since May of last year. That will be what they use next to lock down the country for however many times

    1. @Lonely Grandsouls have you looked at india? They should have mountains of corpses… but spoilers… they don’t.

    2. @Mr Popo It’s always interesting to see a society steered into a ditch by incompetence, hubris, and/or corruption.

      At least, it is from the outside. If you’re a member of that society, however, I expect the ride is not interesting but instead is unpleasant.

    1. @Sherri Lynn please don’t ever go in a hospital then. If you break a leg have a random shaman take care of it. Or y’know, maybe Facebook university will have a DIY post! 😉

    2. @Avatinfernus I have not been in a hospital since I had control over my own care….adulthood. Why so cheeky over my choice? I’m not telling you not to go into a hospital and end up with hospital pneumonia. Yes, that’s real.

    1. top doctor got an awful lot of time to beat all of doom eternal on ultra nightmare and record and upload it

    2. The masks are literally snot rags. I’m in Oaxaca Mexico where you have to wear masks everywhere. It’s so hot I’m dripping from everywhere! Never mind when I go into air conditioned supermarket then my glasses fog both slipping all over with my hands and masks wiping, now that’s where germs get everywhere. I’m sure cold winter days the mask is more a germ rag then anything else.

  1. This reminds me of a Simpsons episode..Were Homer is playing with the light switch and says”LIGHT GOES ON, LIGHT GOES OFF , LIGHT GOES ON, LIGHT GOES OFF”…That is what this quote Top doctor is doing..”LOCK DOWN IS ON, LOCK DOWN IS OFF, LOCK DOWN IS ON , LOCK DOWN IS OFF” it is all political manipulation as its finest..

    1. @95 92 I stated pandemics aren’t solved in two weeks. If you’re that daft to believe Covid is not an actual pandemic, you need to go back to school, immediately.

    2. @Ann Onymous What are you talking about? You don’t make sense. Who said I lived through a pandemic? lucky for me, I can read and interpret science from past pandemics. You should try and read. One word at a time.

    3. @Kipp lyons You get what you deserve. Remember that when you are starving due to supply chains being destroyed and your worthless currency due to hyperinflation.
      At least you can say you didn’t get the flu. Coward.

    4. @Shawnaldo 7575 New cases have dropped during both lockdowns, so I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

    1. Not gonna happen while NDP is the lynchpin, it’s the most power they’re ever gonna have and will refuse to No Confidence even if Trudeau walks into parliament stark naked and demanding to purge the country of minorities.

    2. @MissingFreedom thinking that way,,,,,is exactly what the Liberals want to stay in power,,,,, VOTE CONCERVATIVE,,,or put up with the slime,,,,,,,we have running Canada ..
      I’m not saying your stupid,,,,,or trying to hurt your feelings,,,,,,,,but wake up.

    3. @R P If you think O’Toole is going to be any different than Trudeau… Well, I’m not saying you’re stupid but…….

  2. let’s perform an AUDIT on who’s paying some of these provincial doctors and where their getting their paycheques.

    1. @Soupy Anderson His Label company is now running 24/7. He Loves printing Covid warning labels at his Deco Label company.He never wants this to end!

  3. she’s so brave to be standing there…and she’s funny too as how they’ve handled COVID is one big joke

  4. “we know these measures work” in regards to masks and social distancing during a press conference for a THIRD WAVE. Lol.
