81% Of Canadian COVID Deaths Are In Nursing Homes

another good article, this one is on the deaths from COVID in Canada. So to date, 81% of the people who have died in Canada are seniors living in long term care homes. I would be interested to know about the other 19%. Were they young healthy individuals or did they have chronic problems that were triggered more because of the virus?

Few have gotten it from working in senior homes. Others from family members who have been affected. If your younger you have more of a fighting chance. George Larocque ex hockey player with asthma, recovered. Folks with asthma have to be very careful. Guy from my work place with asthma, hasn't been to work since this covid arrived.

Far more Ontarians are catching COVID-19 in community settings than previously known, Star analysis finds

As cases began to rise again in Ontario, a Star analysis of the best available public data reveals most new infections are occurring in the broader community, not the outbreak settings, such as long-term care homes, that saw a wave of infection last month.

I have read about some people in their 40's and 50's that have died from the virus. They did have some health issues, but it wasn't things that were serious enough to kill them. Some had issues with their lungs, some were smokers. I would assume the virus can kill young people that have asthma.

True. I actually wrote my post before I read yours. So I guess what we're both saying must be true.

The young people aren't worried about it. They havent figured out its not about them but about the people they infect like their parents, grandparents, etc......

LOL I think you're thinking too deeply. They just don't want to ruin their summer so they rather take the chance. Most of them aren't going to work this summer anyway so why waste their time at home.

Not working and still collecting from the government. That just adds to their feeling of entitlement.

 

[xtc27]

you made me think of cupcrazy with his "pork chop" references - ha ha - I dont know why but when he mentions pork chop, I start laughing ha ha.. Anyway,
do you have any intel on a Sasha from cee cee spa at warden and finch??. she may have worked at angel spa with an owner named Mary.. sasha is a bit on the chubby side but cute enough face. I've searched but cant find any references for sasha in the east end..

...nope. Anyone?

...could b mini-revolution of girls coming... girls not afraid 2 work moving 2 spas not afraid 2 open...

...standing on my bike, staring @ spa trying 2 decide if = open... (‘Massage’ light = on, open light = off)... this couple walks up behind me, talking & standing there just 1 ft away... WTF!... imagine catching COVID f/ staring @ spa!

...@ least if I went inside, I’d hv something 2 remember laying in ICU!!!

The smart (honest?) ones were paying taxes while they were working...not necessarily from the spa but there are ways for them to pay tax (I know a few that were doing this).

I was referring to the young ones ignoring social distancing, not MPA's.

To your point, i know quite a few MPA's that file and claim about 20k in income and pay taxes on it. Far less than the actual earnings but its something. Best to fly under CRA radar.

I know quite a few girls who are paying taxes and some spa owners issuing T4 slips for some girls as well. I know of some spas getting paid on credit cards over $100,000 to 250,000 every yr over the past 3 yrs. Can you imagine how much income they are showing with those card payments plus showing some cash incomes? Most busy spas have avg 10 to 15 card paying customers almost every day.
Only small holistic spas get away without showing much but the popular ones file income tax quite a big amount to protect their life styles. There are 2 -3 spa owners I know of living well in huge mansions in some nice neighborhood. They are not going to take a risk which might cause them losing their luxury house and cars.

Today I was out for groceries. In the store 2 aisles over, the store mgr and an older customer were arguing loudly about respect or something to that affect.
I got the hell away as I thought about droplets coming from their mouths. The quicker I got out of the store the better. As I told funguy, protesters are appearing in Toronto - already a lot of that in the US and Europe demanding to lift the bans. I wonder which company / country comes up with a vaccine first?

I hear on the news that China came up with a vaccine.

This is a stupid post, the entire World is waiting for a vaccine, at least name your source.

Your answer to my post is the stupid one.I hear the news on CBC News on Friday 22 evening .The vaccine was created in the Cansino Biologics in China with Canadian and Chinese scientists ,its need more trials but it show promising results on people that was used.
Dallhousie University plan to test the Cansino product in Halifax in the upcoming weeks.
So next time don't insult people without knowing the facts.
Have a nice day.
