Buried Toronto schools report sheds new light on in-class COVID data

Buried Toronto schools report sheds new light on in-class COVID data

The detailed results of an asymptomatic testing pilot project conducted in Toronto public schools revealed that there is little undetected spread of COVID-19 occurring within classrooms and that parent-family positivity rates are much higher than that of students.

Rather, the previously unreported chart obtained by the Toronto Sun appears to confirm what public health officials have maintained — that infections in schools reflect a trickle down of cases from what’s occurring in the broader community.

COVID-19 could shutter more than 200,000 Canadian businesses forever, CFIB says

More than 200,000 Canadian businesses could close permanently during the COVID-19 crisis, throwing millions of people out of work as the resurgence of the virus worsens across much of the country, according to new research.

The Canadian Federation of Independent Business said Thursday one in six, or about 181,000, Canadian small business owners are now seriously contemplating shutting down.

The latest figures, based on a survey of its members done between Jan. 12 and 16, come on top of 58,000 businesses that became inactive in 2020.

Police descend on lockdown violating ‘Illegal rave’ – find it’s just pensioners queuing for Covid vaccination

Three police cars descended on the Essex Freemasons’ Saxon Hall in Aviation Way, Southend on Friday, after being tipped off about a ‘rave’.

But instead of finding strobe lights, glow sticks and groups of teenagers – officers were confronted with large numbers of people in their 80s with walking sticks queuing outside the building for their vaccine.

Provincial health officials recorded 2,632 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday and 46 more deaths. It should be noted that a technical issue reported by Toronto Public Health earlier this week is now resolved, with 102 cases added to today’s total, according to the Ministry of Health.


No one is listening… Ontario lockdown ‘not supported by strong science,’ says former chief medical officer of health

A former chief medical officer of health in Ontario sent an open letter to Doug Ford on Monday, criticizing the province’s lockdown strategy and backing up ousted MPP Roman Baber.

Dr. Richard Schabas held the senior position from 1987 to 1997 and served as chief of staff at York Central Hospital during the 2003 SARS crisis.

Right On Cue: As Biden Takes Office, Media and Tyrannical Dems Drop Lockdown Sham

Revolver News just showcased how a new study out of Canada has confirmed our study from last summer finding that the long-term mortality impact of lockdowns will drastically exceed any lives saved from prevented coronavirus deaths.

But it’s not just Revolver and a few academics who are souring on lockdowns. Like clockwork, the most famous lockdown enforcers on the left are turning against them as well, just in time for Joe Biden’s inauguration. The timing is so blatant, so cynical, that it seems like a deliberate ritual to humiliate a servile public.

The moral degeneracy of sacrificing children on the altar of Covid

WHAT kind of person knows that a government policy is causing misery, unemployment, destroying children’s education, turning teenagers suicidal, crashing the economy, running up an unprecedented level of debt that is now greater than the entire country and says: So what?

Those people are called lockdown hawks, and they don’t care about the utter human destruction this evil policy has caused.

The witch-hunting of lockdown sceptics

We have entered a new era of demonology. The hunt is on for heretics and witches who might be held responsible for our current predicament, for the plague of Covid. As in pre-modern times, sinful speakers and thinkers, those who dare to bristle against the political or scientific consensus, are being demonised and publicly shamed as assistants of the plague, as Covid’s willing helpers. They have ‘blood on their hands’, the lockdown fanatics cry, blissfully unaware of how similar they sound to those who in earlier times of disease would drag eccentrics to the stocks in the warped belief that those eccentrics either brought the plague or at least aided its spread.

Trump supporters next.

Jesse Kline: Overreach on COVID measures risks turning Canada into a police state

With Ontarians under a stay-at-home order, Quebecers forced to abide by a curfew and those living in other provinces facing increased restrictions, it has become apparent that this country is not all that good at balancing public health restrictions with even the most basic freedoms. Even in the midst of a crisis, there is something particularly unseemly about police stopping people on the streets and asking to see their papers, and neighbours snitching on each other because there are one too many cars in the driveway.

Ontario Reports 2,655 New Covid Cases

And after the lockdown restrictions have eased the numbers will creep up because lockdowns really don’t do anything more than delay the inevitable. Used wisely they can buy time. Used as a bludgeon they are worse than the disease.


 

I see this as a media effort to cast Pfizer as Bogeyman and take some of the pressure off Trudeau’s incompetence.

Single Pfizer Covid vaccine dose in Israel ‘less effective than we thought’, ‘Lower than Pfizer claimed’

Israel’s coronavirus tsar has warned that a single dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine may be providing less protection than originally hoped, as the country reported a record 10,000 new Covid infections on Monday.

In remarks reported by Army Radio, Nachman Ash said a single dose appeared “less effective than we had thought”, and also lower than Pfizer had suggested.

By contrast, those who had received their second dose of the Pfizer vaccine had a six- to 12-fold increase in antibodies, according to data released by Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer on Monday.
