What do you expect? they voted for trump. trump supporters are not the brightest.



The idiot bought 29 million doses. Just because it's FDA approved does not mean it's safe.

I was worried that this would people leading to think they need to add water to steam the masks (which may work with N95 but probably not surgical masks as they would melt)

There was a huge controversy here early on when a politician told people to steam their masks to reuse them... As soon as people started doing that, there were pictures of melted masks floating all over social media LUL

Turns out she was right in a way, just not the correct method.

It seems kind of risky compared to buying enough masks to be able to dispose after a use, which as we've seen here, is not impossible to do for many people. If you can afford it, that seems to be the safer route to take...

Thought this was quite useful.

Fake Face-Masks ... have a look https://9gag.com/gag/aPR5oWG?ref=android

Spain about to implement universal basic income, and plan to keep it after the virus is dealt with SeemsGood

Holy hell how is the stock market up. Do they know something that we dont.

I saw this too. Not surprising that China would put out fakes at a time like this. There was also that knockoff KN95 someone posted earlier too.

Stock market is retarded, overreact to every bit of news good and bad. Should just talk about it in that thread since it has little to do with reality...

or people actually believing Trump that hydroxychloroquine will be the cure and the US will bounce back to normal.

Many people are looking for the bottom. It's a huge buying opportunity if you can hold for like 2 years lol

New York now using hydroxychloroquine, under the guidelines of the American Thoracic Society, based on international case studies, for severely affected patients.

They're going to get absolutely slammed once this is all over the borders remain open. They're part of the EU and they're going to get so many people flocking there to enjoy their UBI.

It'll be like how all the other provinces ship their homeless junkies over to Vancouver.

no point going costco anymore (before opening non-senior daywillingdon + lougheed)

very short line-up at superstore off united by 9...by 11 even rbc/london drugs joyce had a long line

Was an hour and a half lineup at still creek Costco at 1030..

Went to the other one off gaglardi and was in in 20 minutes

I believe they would have to be citizen's of Spain.


Boris Johnson is now in intensive care.

I waited about 20mins or so to get into Richmond Superstore at 8am on Sunday. Not terrible minus the complete lack of spam.

Anyone run into racist stuff here?? Some guy on my FB has claimed THREE separate incidents now where someone said racist comments to him in public... the latest being claiming that a young boy said "Eww Chinese" to him in a store.

Like 1 or 2 incidents here and there but for 1 guy to say it's the 3rd time it's happened to him? I don't want to be *that guy* but I honestly don't even believe him... super skeptical a little kid be able to even tell someone's ethnicity or think to say that. Really gotta wonder if people are just making shit up to get attention nowadays.

I think that's more weather/climate based tho? I don't see the correlation in that comparison...

Probably not a huge issue in Canada, and even less so in Vancouver. If anything it's dumb kids and the homeless/mentally ill that would be prone to saying racist garbage most people would have a sense to keep to themselves.

In the US however, it's bad enough that there's a hotline now to report hate crimes in NY State:

spoiler alert: most of the violent crimes have been commited by blacks and latinos

You mean the racist violent crimes.
Oh darn, i forgot. Black and brown people can't be racist.

you can get everything you need from small local stores, with the added benefit of keeping small business moving.

walmart, superstore, costco. I can hardly think of any reason I had to go there before all this, now - I'll never shop in there again.

Literally no one has said this. Piss off with your alt-right talking points.

Maybe that's a good thing then, because unlike receiving welfare, these people can actually keep working while getting the income.

For a lot of people it's not worth getting off welfare and going to work a shit job to make an extra $100 a month. Now if they want they can work that shit job and double their income...

For those who still think the young are invincible ... I wonder why he didn't go to Emerge?

COVID-19: Man in his 40s dies at home ...
https://theprovince.com/news/local-n...2-cb095636747e

Henry said the deceased was a man in his 40s who died at home, and health authorities knew that he had COVID-19. His was the second community death and brings the death toll to 39.

“Unfortunately, this person did pass away at home and was a known positive case. That’s doubly tragic for us. That was a man in his 40s, so we are, of course, concerned about the effects this virus can have even on young people. We know that there’s been some young people in other parts of the country, including someone in their 20s who unfortunately died in Alberta over the last few days,” Henry said.

“Young people are not immune to this. Most of the people who have, unfortunately, died here in B.C., are people from the long-term care homes… in their 70s or older.”
