I know I’ve said it before but I’m darn glad I’m not a politician during this mess. Your damned if you do, damned if you don’t. I mean other than idiot child’s major debacle in not procuring vaccines for his people these politicians can’t seem to make a right move, somebody is always pissed at them.
That’s amazing
Their choice was the “don’t”. I would’ve preferred the “do” option
One less hockey team! On a serious note, that has bugged/baffled me from the start but it seems that Dr BH has tried to mother-hen us from the get go, more with the data and the messaging than restriction. In fact I think we’ve seen fewer overall restrictions in BC, again b/c of BH, up until the most recent indoor gathering and travel bans.
In all honesty if I had to guess.
We are, just like we are also being forced to live around drug dealers and b&e artists and gang members and other threats to your life and well being, and if everyone had a lot fewer rights and freedoms, we could get rid of those people, and those threats would be gone.

Police will be checking drivers' identification, along with documentation showing name, address and their reason for travel. Commercial vehicles will not be subject to road checks.
You only get fined if you refuse to turn around.
This is what happens when bureaucrats and politicians override the science. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines were studied at 21 and 28 day intervals respectively. Now that 12-15 year olds are approved I suppose they will get theirs before elderly people get their second shot. People over 75 NEVER should have had their doses delayed in favour of healthy young people at very little risk of a serious outcome.
To all the folks who s deeply believe in the Feds spacing out doses. Have we not heard the argument on "REAL WORLD SCIENCE"? Well I would love to hear what you have to say about this... With the UK variant being the majority of cases now... As a country we are only 3% immunized with a second shot. This is like using kids "water wings" for a life jacket... So our government is worried about vaccinating kids who have a 99.99% chance full recovery, while our senior & baby boomers are still only partially vaccinated. This has turned into a political "Progressive"**** show of everyone expecting zero cases instead of keeping folks out of the hospital. Vaccine priority being given based on skin color, or socal status.. The government will lock us in our own houses, let our business and livleyhoods fall apart, while leaving the airports open to international travelers. The same travelers who have more rights to travel across the province then we do.
Our kids mental health is falling apart. We have our seniors trapped in homes not able to see their loved ones during their final days. Grandparents who have not seen grandkids in a year.. But we are vaccinating 20 yr olds & soon school kids. We will never reach herd immunity... How arrogant are we as a species that we think we can control a pandemic, or the climate. Its like saying we can control an earthquake.
"A new study has found spacing out doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is a lot riskier against variants running rampant than administering both jabs quicker. The study of close to 40,000 people in Qatar found that the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine was only 30% effective at preventing infection (either symptomatic or asymptomatic) by the B.1.1.7 variant, also known as the U.K. variant. The single shot was found to be 54.5% effective at preventing more serious results (“severe, critical or fatal”) according to the study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday. The study found those who have received two jabs of the vaccine had 87% protection against infection — increasing to 90% two weeks after the second dose — against the B.1.1.7 variant, which is extensively found in Ontario and Alberta.
Study: Single Pfizer dose only 30% effective against U.K. variant so spacing is riskier

Couldn't agree more- average length of stay in long term care in BC 871 days. How many days does the average patient have left since the start of this? Vaccinating anyone under 50 except identified high risk people is just insanity at this point.To all the folks who s deeply believe in the Feds spacing out doses.
