Supposedly it's his family and people with "mutual interests he would approve of"... but the only thing I can find mutual about them all is that they're a bunch of sick fucks.

Dr. Bonnie's dire warnings to young people, the party bus crowd about the long term effects of contracting Covid:
Re: lingering side effects of #COVID19, Henry says they include “profound fatigue” and increased clotting of your blood which could lead to strokes or aneurysms, as well as inflammation of blood vessels which doesn’t seem to be happening in #BC. #bcpoli @NEWS1130 She noted in some groups, “more likely to be men than women,” increased blood clotting was reported following positive COVID-19 cases.
“And that can lead to clotting of the arteries around the heart and heart attacks, or it can lead to challenges with brain injury or with what we call pulmonary embolisms — big blood clots in the lungs that can actually happen weeks later,” Henry said.
It was unclear why men were disproportionately affected more than women, she added.
If this information from Dr. Bonnie doesn't make young people think twice about partying in large bubbles, their hearts and/or brains can be fucked up from Covid. Big blood clots in lungs would kill those young people.

If nothing else shouldn't the checkmark next to Herman Cains name go away? It can't really be a verified account anymore when the dude is dead.

Just providing a wider perspective, although cases are peaking, hospitalizations and deaths tell a different story:

There’s likely more people in hospital in BC with sunburns than with Covid.

That's because steps were taken to mitigate the effects. I mean, it's not hard to see what things are like unchecked in the US. It's not fuckin bueno.

Youth will be youth, stupid choices will be made, and then 20 years after that they will shake their head at the next generation.

If they really wanted action, maybe they should have some balls and put some regulations in place, rather than begging celebrities to help them do their fucking jobs.

I wouldn't be so hard on Horgan on this one.
This is the current culture we live in, people don't listen to officials, people think they know it all. We have a celebrity president in the states.
It sounds crazy, but I get what Horgan's trying to do, we now live in a world where celebrities and public entities elicit more trust and have a more powerful voice than that of government officials. It's nuts, but that's where we are here.

13 active cases in the interior health region. 2 hospitalizations. Since our outbreak 6 weeks ago (caused by tourists from Vancouver), we are back to less than 1 new case per day. Interior health is over 800,000 people
Mask wearing I would estimate at far less than 10%, and all of our busy summer tourist shit is in full swing.

My client (who I haven't seen since last year) tested positive for COVID. He lives in Langley fyi. He said he didn't have symptoms, but someone he came into contact with tested positive so he decided to go get tested as a precaution. He said he had to lie that he had all the symptoms to even get tested. Otherwise they won't test him. He said he was feeling fine like a solid 9/10.
Apparently, his quarantine is only 10 days after first day of symptoms?? Wtf.

Has anyone gotten the test done? Is it a long nasal swab or oral swab?

Nasopharyngeal which is through the nose.

They aren't a winery, or a conference center. They are a middlemen for transportation and events, both of which for PUBLIC health reasons need to be avoided since they aren't essential. No one needs a wine tour during a pandemic.

No one needs a ton of businesses during a pandemic. I'm not defending what the guy said, but I do sympathize with businesses that are being crippled by what's going on.
I think a lot of people on here wouldn't be so happy if suddenly their job wasn't deemed necessary anymore due to government regulations.
