We're All Doomed!™ (the Conquest, War, Famine, and Death Thread)

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Djokovic is the first player to lose a tournament after missing 2 shots.

BC government and PHO removed the expiration dates from the restrictions.

Allegedly no announcement just quietly done in advance of the announcement that is supposed to come this week (today I think).

Politicians are the scum of the earth.

I think the lying was at least as big a part of it.

On ”have you visited any other country in the last fourteen days” he checked the no box despite TV footage showing him in Spain about a week ago... and the questionnaire clearly states that lying can lead to deportation or imprisonment. Stupid bastard still gave it a shot, despite himself refusing to take any.

And the whole thing that he supposedly had had covid which should give him a medical exception...?
The same day that he supposedly tested positive he was at some tennis youth camp taking pics with the young players, the next day he sat for an interview, at no point did he seem to qurantine or anything. And the certificate seemed iffy at best. Some reporter copied the qr code on his certificate from a photo and accessed the website. He was told the result was negative...

Also, the last day to apply for a medical excemption was Dec 10th. Djokovic supposedly tested positive on Dec 16th and then applied, so if the tournament officials hadn’t been complete cocksuckers they shouldn’t even have looked at his application.

It’d be hard for the Australian govt to let him get away with it after having had draconian lockdown rules and not even letting expats visit Australia without being double vaxxed and quarantining. One set of rules for celebrities and another for ordinary people. Wouldn’t have gone down well with the public.

Djokovic knew the rules but disregarded them or figured they didn’t apply to him. Good riddance.
He doesn’t have to take the vaccine, but then he must accept that he can’t visit Australia.

Australian news anchors when they think the camera is off... :lol:

My understanding that just recently if you visit the hospital for an event and test positive for Covid you show up as a Covid patient. Not for the fact that you had a heart attack or something else.

I thought they were doing this before but is it recent and 1 reason why the # in hospital increased significantly over the past week?

If anyone who visits the hospital and is found have COVID is included in the covid hospitalization stats, wouldn't we have a hell of a lot more than 895 of them?
