As of 30 mins ago, about 50 doses at the old orchard shoppers remaining for walk in. | After seeing SSM's post, I called the pharmacy and the girl that answered said they can't disclose how many doses they had left but that they did and best I come right away.
I got there just after 4, got my shot at 4:26 and left at 4:42 after waiting 15 mins to see if I had an allergic reaction to the vaccine.
Can't thanks SSM and RS enough for posting the walkin info.
Thank you.

Man, it fucking blows my mind how many people I'm seeing on social media that have become anti-vaxers, skeptical of the vaccines.
Can't say I've ever purged so many people from my accounts in my life here.

Thank you. | congrats - this is excellent news. waze told me i could have been there by 415, should have gone for it instead of making my in person tour of north van. as long as the dose got used I'm thrilled.
every single shot in an arm gets us closer the finish line

It's been the ultimate excuse to cut someone off you rarely speak to anyways | It’s also extremely disappointing whenever I load up any sort of social media and see friends just out hanging out at people’s houses and throwing parties. It’s never been easier to cut out all these selfish pricks

Canadians stuck in India. How stupid are these people. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/briti...-ban-1.6000994 Quote:
Nineteen-year-old Kajol Johal learned of Thursday's announcement of a 30-day ban from the federal government just hours after she arrived in northern India's Punjab province to visit her sick grandmother.
"There was no warning. I know that I wouldn't have gotten on my flight even if I knew a couple of hours before that there was potential for a ban," the Delta resident told CBC News.
Johal said she only booked off 10 days from work to make the trip, and will now have to start the next term of her university studies using her grandparents' spotty internet connection.
"It's obviously stressful because … I'm not home. I don't feel safe being here," she said.

There are still people that think COVID is nothing more than a bad flu. That the flu kills just as many people as COVID in any given normal year. Despite the staggering number of deaths. Despite ICUs reaching capacity. And these idiots always scream the loudest in the comment section.
I don't even know what to say.

I don't even know what to say. | With vaccinations going on for months now and looking at trends in the US in terms of decreasing deaths in the same time frame. A response I heard is that it corresponds to the flu season. |

So internation travellers are ALLOW to come INTO canada BUT you MUST be
1) Canadian citizen
2) dual Canadian citizen with a valid Canadian passport or special authorization permanent resident of Canada person registered under Canada’s Indian Act
3) protected person
Foreign nationals, including United States (US) citizens, can travel to Canada only if they’re eligible.
There are NO international visiting travel / visa allowed.
Summary, people who are coming and going... are all Canadian citizens (and / or special permit).
Regardless who comes in... you MUST quarantine at hotel. UNLESS you drive back from US, then you quarantine in your own home.
Trudeau plugged the loop hole, India + Paki, must legally ENTER another country, test negative, then test negative to leave on a flight; THEN come to canada and be negative again.
In a way, another country who's willing to take them in... then it's their problem ahahhahah smart *clap clap clap

Who thought this was a good idea? I wouldn't be surprised if money was involved.
B.C. cancels West Vancouver country club's clinic offering AstraZeneca vaccine to members Quote:
The B.C. government has cancelled a "pop up" vaccine clinic planned by an exclusive West Vancouver country club after it sent an email to members offering them doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine.
The email, sent by Hollyburn Country Club CEO Ed McLaughlin on April 22 and obtained by CBC News, said members could email and book their vaccine by providing personal information, including a club ID number.
"We understand that there are long wait lists for COVID-19 vaccines in our local communities. To offer some of our members a convenient way to get the AstraZeneca vaccine, we have organized a pop-up clinic at Hollyburn," the email read in part.

Playland opening next weekend. https://bc.ctvnews.ca/mobile/playlan...Tly_lXytjrFVsM Quote:
VANCOUVER -- Vancouver's annual amusement park is getting ready to reopen with new COVID-19 protocols.
The amusement park will reopen on May 1 with significantly reduced capacity and only on limited days. Playland is urging people to comply with all health orders, including avoiding travel.
Like last year, physical distancing will be emphasized and all guests over the age of two will be required to wear masks, even when on rides.

some interesting stats
land crossing testing (+) 0.25%
international passengers coming off flights (+) ~2%
yes it only takes one person to spread to communiti es but both are probably lower than what some of us are suspecting

Just waited an hour and half but got an AZ at superstore w my wife on lougheed in coq.
They’re counting doses now though and turning people away.
Thanks to vaccine hunters for the tip. Still crazy that this is the best we can do
EDIT: this is the twitter feed that hooked us up. everybody in the line up heard about it from here. https://twitter.com/vaxhunterscan?lang=en
