I think the school theory is a red herring. It's the largest gathering of a population into a single category. Meaning that old folks homes don't have all the old folks in them, whereas schools have all the kids in them. Workplaces have largely been shut down, so that would look just as bad if workplaces had no restrictions.
Personal experience has been that kids are catching it from family and then force their entire class to isolate as a result. There's been some dumb moves by parents through sending kids to school while having a case in the home.
Miami beach partygoers got more than they expected this Saturday night.
So since Government pretends to care so much about the health and well-being of those affected by Covid, then why is the atrocious Covid Spending Bill have less than 10% having anything to do with Covid. $1.9 Trillion. Where are those Billions going to? Certainly not all those people affected by government implemented lockdowns, restrictions, mandates. What an absolute joke.

Kids DGAF so school does play a part. It's just not inside the school, but outside where it's uncontrolled. Drive by any school at lunch, you'll see an hour of maskless mass gathering daily that rivals those maskless protests. There's a reason why the largest age group for cases is now teenagers. If there was no school, that mass gathering would at least be eliminated.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
That said, schools are getting shut down now because of outside of school parties now that AHS is catching up to tracing. That's driving a lot of the spread right now. Doubt that would change with no school.

Who thinks we are going to stage 3, I very much doubt it, RT values back over 1 in most places in Alberta, hospitalizations climbing again...
It would be unfortunate because a lot of activity related businesses we deal with have announced they are starting in person activities again this week.
Sounds like we have to collect all the high school kids up and ship them to a boarding school.
Aren't we well below the hospitalizations required for stage 3? At risk people receiving their first shot?
Time to let people make their own decisions.
We are below the hospitalizations, yes. But other numbers are trending up, so that may factor in. Hard to predict what a politician will do, because these decisions are never just about the numbers.

I think we'll see a modified step 3, just like we saw for step 2.
Allowing teams sports in a limited capacity outside, opening museums and casinos in a limited capacity gives people something to do other than going out to bars and restaurants with friends, or having the gatherings that are probably responsible for the uptick in cases. Give people something to do and without them worrying they'll get in trouble for it and it will probably help out. Not to mention pushing things off after keeping the main metric below the threshold since a while ago would just serve to frustrate a lot of people, people who would be more inclined to throw in the towel on adhering to restrictions if they have been so far.
See Crank. See Crank Walk. Walk Crank Walk.
We are what, 16 weeks since any form of indoor socialization was allowed in the province?
I don’t envy JK’s popularity numbers if we kick that can down the road another 4 weeks. Beauty of it is the people who want more restrictions are, as they have always been, welcome to hide in their basements by themselves.

The argument about what we "should" do is totally separate to what policitical choice will be made by cynical politicians.

Not that I want more restrictions, but I have been hiding in my basement for the past year. I want shit to get under control, so that we can all go out and play without the threat of killing the at risk population, or long-term effects, like covid lung.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Mandatory anal covid test for anyone wanting to eat at restaurants. @Toilet_X would probably have all 3 meals at a restaurant at that point.
Over a year later and hospital capacity hasn't increased? Aren't they supposed to use the bottom of the wave to boost healthcare beds and capacity so we don't keep going into lockdowns? Just two more weeks people, we NEEEEDDDD to flatten this curve.....just to buy us time to increase capacity. Right.
Why? No way I'm hiding in my house especially with summer coming. Anytime I go out I see elderly people who can barely move out in the middle of the day, no way in hell they should be out in public in a "pandemic". These are the at-risk population we should be protecting, but they don't care. I'm done with this BS and so is everyone else it seems. Besides wearing masks, it's business as usual here, people are ignoring those stupid arrows on the aisles and restaurants are full to C19 capacity.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.
