I’ve done what I can, I’m triple vaxed, I wear my mask, I‘ve moved to WFH for two years now. Here’s the thing, I’m going to die. And so are you DSC, perhaps sooner, perhaps later, but DSC you’re a walking deadman.
But when do we get to live? What is the threshold or target whereupon we can stand down? What’s the point of watching case counts and hospitalizations rise and fall if talk of a hypothetical new variant is enough to scare our politicians into coercing us back into hiding?
These protestors are idiots, and so is the chief of Ottawa Police for allowing his Downtown to be swamped. Thank goodness Toronto didn’t hire that tool as TPS chief. But I’m done, I’ve done my part. I’ve booked my flight to London, and will continue to mask and take sensible precautions as I see the sights and visit family. But I need to live now - DSC, you, me, and the rest of us will be dead a long time. What are you going to do beforehand?
A theoretical threat isn't a reason to not open up as hospitalization and ICU numbers recede - it just speaks to the need to continue to monitor and if necessary - react if our healthcare system gets threatened again. Nobody want to be in a state of perpetual emergency when we developed a reasonable handle on the situation.
