I only have one account here. Sorry, not sorry that I don't fit the 'narrative'.
Master Fauci finds it so disturbing that people will question the health and safety of vaccines. Well, there has never been a vaccine of this type before, mRNA, vaccines take years and years to develop and test, there has never been a vaccine against coronoviruses, this hasn't been tested on animals, and are using humans as guinea pigs, and People have died, and have suffered adverse affects from this, and we still don't know what the long term effects this will have on people. It's all about informed Consent.
Canadian Doctors Speak Out about Covid19 Being Nothing to Fear. How long until these doctors are Banned??
Do you guys on beyond think that Alberta will see a 3rd wave (due to variants), or is our vaccination program going to get ahead of it?
I think we will though whether it's because of variants or not no idea. Our active cases has been increasing for the past week albeit slowly. I think the nicer weather mixed with restlessness means we'll see more people socializing and numbers picking up.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Though if all the 50+ age can get vaccinated in the next month or two then hopefully hospitalizations and deaths stay low so I don't think it'll be as bad as fall was
case numbers should stop mattering once hospitalizations and deaths fall.

I can't take that video seriously. Meme account at best. Weird posting history of music vids, US politics, and now Canadian doctors? Bullshit.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Isn't the entire point of the mRNA vaccines that they're cost-effective, quick to develop, and easier to deliver than tradditional vaccines? Sorry technology is moving forward and doesn't match your narrative, I guess. My biggest fear isn't catching covid, it's covid lung. I have enough friends that have "recovered" and months later still struggle with breathing day to day, let alone while working out and such. And they were in excellent shape before catching covid.

8% of cases require hospitalization.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
2/3 of hospitalization are from 60+.
So even if the variant double our case number with most 60+ got their 1st shot and active, hospitalization number should still remain the same as pre-vaccine day in the worst case scenario. And we have been holding flat on hospitalization for over a month now, not a downward trend yet but at least holding flat.
I’m still trying to figure out the sandbagged mental gymnastics that AHS has trotted out claiming we have under 300 beds “capable of handling covid patients” province wide lol

Those are total cases, not active though. As far as I know, AHS hasn’t actually released an active count for variant cases in Alberta.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
See Crank. See Crank Walk. Walk Crank Walk.
Then you don't understand the care requirements, or logistics of a COVID patient requiring intensive care. And that's fine, its not your area of specialty. Remember there are varying degrees of severity with COVID cases, and the most severe have very high demand requirements for ventilation, medication support, require often 1-3 on 1 constant care and at times higher, a specialized location (negative pressure chamber, opposed to a regular bed space), some require ECMO which is a limited resource, so yes those spaces are VERY limited capacity. Hospitals aren't completely comprised of negative chambers, nor can staff the required number of specialized personnel concurrently (ICU RRT, ICU RN, ICU physician, pulmonologists, ECMO teams). Its also a consideration that these patients need to be moved to facilities that do have capacity at times, so that means transport teams, Paramedics, etc. They set up the tent outside the PLC to maintain separation from the main hospital even. You then have to add to this all the regular NON COVID cases that are coming into ICU/CCU all the time, MVC's, adverse cardiac events, CVA's, polytrauma, acute sepsis, post operative, etc etc etc, that can't and shouldn't be placed in units alongside COVID patients.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Its ok to be skeptical, as long as you can acknowledge there is alot more to it than you may be aware of on the outset, and that their statement may have been as broad as possible. Of course there is lots of other minor COVID cases treated in significantly lower care areas, with isolation, with no problem. They aren't the concern, the sickest and more care intensive are the ones that would buckle the system and ripple its effect

Yea AHS’s number has nothing to do with intensive care needs or ecmo units, it’s their broadest category of
Their definition, not mine.It represents the percentage of beds capable of holding COVID patients that are currently occupied by any type of patient - COVID or other. COVID capable beds are determined by a mix of beds, equipment, and staffing levels and may change over time.
In layman’s terms, saying we have sub 300 beds province wide and current 85% of them are occupied, is sandbagging hard.

The only major parking price decrease downtown I have seen is in the Bow Parkade, which was $24 pre pandemic (I think) then went to $18 and is now at $15/day. That's the a nice clean well-lit parkade that fits pickup trucks.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I love how you folded 1 mirror.
Looks like our parkade got a hair cheaper. $24/day versus a “sticker” price of 27-30 If I remember correctly.
No movement on monthly, not even to walk back the increase they had in 2019.

Not personal experience, but I was told by a coworker that the parkade at Bow Valley Square (I think that's the one he uses) was under $10/day last fall if you were in before 8am.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Also, some of the COC parkades had a deal for 10 weekdays of parking for just over $100. The pass was specific to a parkade though. Haven't checked to see if that is still being offered but I hope it's still an option at James Short whenever I actually go back to the office.
$100 for 10 days at James short would be great.

CPA was doing BOGO on monthly parking, not sure if they still are. Only for one month though, then full price thereafter. They seem to be pretty content having mostly empty lots.
4$ per day at James short is the way.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Can't do that anymore unfortunately. Half the lot was probably doing it and the city eventually noticed after 4-5 years A bunch of guys who used that trick where I used to work started getting entire months worth of tickets in the mail.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.
