OT: Covid-19 (Part 39) Subject Line Restrictions

[Kriss E]

While gyms aren’t a huge problem I don’t think the major spreader gym put them in a good light. Really unfortunate.



Doesn't work that way.

Why not keep everything open until they cause a major breakout? That is just asking for it to keep spreading.

Lots of things are closed proactively but again, gyms are blamed here when they shouldn't be.

The changes are extremely insignificant IMO. It's not much so I don't see the point.

That's my point. These measures are very insignificant.

 

[Kriss E]

Blame the dude in Quebec City. There are close to 300 cases and 20 work outbreaks because of one gym.

I expect the government to be smarter than some moron covid denier. They acting just as dumb with these measures.

So as of Thursday, people 55 and over can show up to designated clinics with no appointment and get the AZ vaccine. It will be identified that it's the AZ vaccine available.

yesssir
that's the spirit.

This probably means there vaccination opens up to 60 and under with conditions and essential workers this week! The problem is... everyone will jump to be first. The servers might crash hardcore, and a bunch of tech savvy, otherwise healthy people, will be assholes and sign up everywhere..

Why would they sign up at more than one place?

 

[A Loyal Dog]

Why would they sign up at more than one place?

People have been doing it nonstop. There were multiple reports of it happening (booking at several places; no showing at all but one).

Confused why they would do it. You can select a date on the booking website. Don't like the dates available? Just go back and select another place...

It's the phone system who initially crashed
they're starting to give AZ without appointment. So that's good news.

I have good confidence about the system capacity. I took appointments today while on high demand. The slot time was taken before sending my request, I was able to change it pretty fast.

I agree with you. I’m just scared I won’t be fast enough, and I’ll be stuck with a late date...

I sure hope so!

Its a joke.

Enough said.

60+ all Quebec this week...

Under 60 with conditions still nowhere in sight...

The changes are insignificant. The measures in general are fine.

They are next.
the 55+ AZ opening should be announced

 

[A Loyal Dog]

They are next.
the 55+ AZ opening should be announced

They’ve been next for the last 4 weeks. It’s taking way too long.

350K AZ will be only available in CMM ?

That's weird.

moving around 30k+ Pfizer out of montreal.

 

[A Loyal Dog]

Quebec has 700k+ doses...

 

[Crusher117]

So. If u go in the massive centers with appointments you get Pzifer.
If u go through pharmacy, you get Moderna.
If you go sans rendezvous, you get Astra.

 

[Revansky]

The strategy to get the people to take the AZ vaccine seems like a good one.

We may hit 60-70 k of doses per day if people between 55-60 take the AZ vaccine.

 

[Adam Michaels]

They are next.
the 55+ AZ opening should be announced

The announced it in the presser today. So as of Thursday morning, people aged 55 and over can go to designated places to receive the AZ vaccine without appointment.

They mentioned that the Olympic Stadium and Palais de Congrès will be two of those designated places. I think if I understood properly, they will release all of the places available for this tomorrow.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Quebec is set to receive a total of 700K doses this week.

 

[A Loyal Dog]

Quebec is set to receive a total of 700K doses this week.

They’ll then have 1.3-1.4m doses in storage freezers, waiting for every 60 year old from every banlieue to get vaccinated first.

Dube just said we should have more info tomorrow or Thursday for group 8 & 9.

Group 8 : Adults under 60 years of age who have a chronic disease or health problem that increases the risk of complications of COVID‑19

Group 9 : Adults under 60 years of age who do not have a chronic disease or health problem that increases the risk of complications, but who provide essential services and have contact with users;

Group 10 is the rest of the population.

Not according to doctors who made a public plea for full closure of Mtl, but hey, what do they know. Gyms yo.

They shouldn’t be grouping group 8 and 9 together. I’m sorry, but at least give group 8 a few days, at the very least, to take their appointments first. Our situation is especially dangerous considering some of the conditions we have.
