The first COVID-19 case confirmed at HFHS by RT-PCR was on March 10, 2020, any patients admitted before March 10th and subsequently tested positive were also included in the analyses. There was a total of 2,948 COVID-19 admissions, of these, 267 (9%) patients had not been discharged, 15 (0.5%) left against medical advice, and four (0.1%) were transferred to another healthcare facility; these patients were excluded from analysis as we could not ascertain their outcome. In addition, there were 121 (4.1%) readmissions, which were also excluded.
Lol I’m in Penticton right now, RIP social distancing.
Gone to 3 restaurants and breweries and it’s got worse at each one. The pizza place in at now has regular capacity with strangers sharing our same 6 person table

I forgot where I saw it, but there's a number you can call to report businesses not adhering to the rules set out.
They removed the 50% capacity limit provided that businesses can safely allow more than 50%.
Like when I said “no one wears masks” in Vancouver it was still 15-20%
Here I’ve literally seen 4 people wearing them lol..came to another brewery, it’s probably twice the size of parallel 49’s interior space and they have a max posted occupancy of 82
Also in general people do not respect distancing inside of places, in lines etc. every place I’ve gone people getting nice and close.. pretty bad tbh and it’s every place I’ve gone today (5 diff places)

That's what I was saying a few weeks back and got shit on for it. People in the interior are doing fuck all.
It's not just the interior. We were in the PoMo area last weekend and only saw a handful of people wearing masks. Everyone else was walking around like it's pre-COVID and clearly not following physical distancing.
If someone walks up to you and aggressively coughs in your face, do you have a right to reasonable self defence? Aka a firm fucking right hook to their jaw

seems to me it's the equivalent of being spat on, which i believe is considered assault no? i think you're allowed self defense within reason...whatever that is...
she's lucky she was able to cough and walk away, could have ended up like that 1 woman on TMZ where she said the n-word in a convenience store at another woman and got a beat down for it.
It's been a bit over a month since the BLM protests started taking place
Out of curiosity, I wanted to see how the states with the largest protests (Seattle, Minneapolis, NYC) but also otherwise relatively still closed, compared to some states that opened bars and restaurants around the same time (Florida, Arizona, Texas)
Chart starts around mid-May, before George Floyd was murdered
The differences: One is a HUGE gathering of people, but outdoors, and almost all wearing masks. The other is smaller groups of people, but indoors, and not wearing masks
Also you know there were protests in Vancouver (no new local cases) Hong Kong (no new local cases) and around the world
i think it's fair to say that BLM protests do contribute to increases the same way any large gatherings do. 10,000 people protesting is still not as significant as millions of people being careless in their everyday lives though, which is the bigger cause of spiking.

i was in the okanagan since tuesday and did wine tastings in vernon, kelowna, naramata and oliver
basically the further south you went the less covid precautions there were
that being said, most did keep a 6' distance but some it was like there was nothing going on at all
as for the general public....saw VERY VERY few people in masks
Was in Victoria and Kelowna for a business trip...felt like I was the only one wearing a mask.... doesn't help that it seemed like I was the only asian too lol
