2 workers at the grocery store we use have tested positive. Great. Hope they are ok but now we're worried about the packaging.

Be prepared to stay inside for up to three months, Toronto's top doctor warns

Toronto’s top doctor says that residents will likely have to remain at home and only venture outside “for the most essential of needs” for the next 12 weeks amid a surging number of cases of COVID-19 locally that has placed the city on an alarming trajectory.

Dr. Eileen de Villa made the comment on Wednesday as she issued sweeping new recommendations to help limit the spread of COVID-19., recommendations that Mayor John Tory says amount to “locking the city down as much as any municipal government possibly could.”

There is a surge cause we have finally tested a large sample of people and results are in

No surprise we have a spike . I bet a few million Canadians have already had it .... who hasnt had flu like symptoms this year from October to March

To be fair all the other cold viruses and influenza itself didn't just pack up their bags and go away. 95% of the people we are testing now in the midst of an outbreak with upper respiratory symptoms are coming up negative for the virus.

Agreed , but I dont know what to make of this crisis

So many conspiracy views from a rigged event for the elite to strike fear and get more control over you , to do we need to take down the global economy etc....

Lets get this shit under control

If people are actually immune after having it then we need to start testing non severe cases. If i have it right now (doc says to assume i do) then after this is over i would gladly volunteer to run groceries and meds for the elderly since i wont be in harms way.

How are you doing?

Not everyone is building up the antibodies. People are catching it a second time. Also, they're unsure if some will still be asymptomatic carriers.

They've developed an antibody test. Best to wait for it to roll out.

This is what's hit my family. Upper Respiratory non covid. It's been running rough shot through the area since new years.

Maybe they have come up with something a lot better at killing this time. But prior efforts have been poor.

The elite love 100 year anniversaries of tragic tragedies.

Spanish Flu peaked in 1920.

These sick twisted mothers, do it time and time again.

Probably a ww3 to follow. Follow the elephant spoor.

I know many people that have taken to wiping down everything they buy. For this exact purpose. Can’t imagine

Pork shoulder has been in the oven for about 7 and a half hours, slow roasting. Going to take it out soon, let it rest for 20-25 minutes, and blast the oven to 500 degrees to give it some color and get that blistering skin going.

How are you doing?

Little worse than yesterray but no fever still which is really good. Strangest thing has been being dizzy/lightheaded yesterday evening and a little this morning.

Thanks for asking
