Not sure we're going down the wrong path, time will tell, but here's an attempt to explain why we're the odd one out.5thhorseman wrote: ↑Thu Mar 26, 2020 7:43 am Looks like Sweden is also going down the wrong path and is headed for disaster. What the hell, Per! I thought you were better than this!

While most of Europe is firmly locked down in a bid to curb the spread of Covid-19, Sweden is taking a softer line, keeping primary schools, restaurants and bars open and even encouraging people to go outside for a nip of air.
In contrast, neighbouring Norway two weeks ago rolled out the 'most intrusive measures' seen in peacetime, including banning sports and cultural events, and shutting down schools and businesses.

There goes the economy.
This has largely been the approach in BC. Our Chief Medical Officer has experience on the ground in west Africa during the ebola epidemic, Toronto during SARS and BC during H1N1. She co wrote Canada's Pandemic Response Plan. I've been quite impressed the way the elected officials have let her call the shots and have supported her. She issues the public health orders, they enact social controls at their disposal from her guidance and give away money they don't have.
But how the fuck does anyone know what she's saying? As soon as I see her approach the mic I start cranking up the TV volume but sadly there is no 11 on the fuckin thingTopper wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2020 10:14 amThis has largely been the approach in BC.
