It was never about a virus ...
As the pandemic struck a Quebec nursing home last year, officials made it harder to send ailing residents to hospital and repeatedly provided morphine rather than treat those with breathing problems, a coroner’s inquest heard Wednesday.
A nurse testified that the Sainte-Dorothée long-term care facility consistently administered morphine instead of attempting to prolong the life of elderly residents who were believed to have COVID-19.
“They didn’t all die but most did,” Sylvie Morin said.
Ms. Morin was an assistant chief nurse at Sainte-Dorothée, an LTC home north of Montreal where more than 100 residents died during the first wave of the pandemic last year.
“They made us put them all on the respiratory-distress protocol,” she testified.
She was alluding to a medical assessment tool where morphine, the sedative Ativan and scopolamine, an anti-nausea drug, are administered if a resident’s breathing troubles meet a number of criteria.
“It was like, they have respiratory distress, ‘Okay, we put them on the protocol.’ Morphine, scopolamine, Ativan,” Ms. Morin said.
“Which leads to death?” asked Patrick Martin-Ménard, a lawyer for the family of a deceased resident.
“Yes,” Ms. Morin replied.
Speaking of b@$#@rds:
If you thought this crisis was finally over, think again.

Trudeau has signed an agreement with Pfizer to provide millions of doses of ‘booster vaccines’ to be administered every year until at least 2024. We’re going to have PERMANENT #covid hysteria. pic.twitter.com/Eakj8aAdOB
Israel’s top officials are warning that Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine is “significantly less” effective at combating the “Delta” variant of the CCP virus.
“We do not know exactly to what degree the vaccine helps, but it is significantly less,” Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett told reporters and cabinet members on July 17. He didn’t elaborate.
Now where are you going to get actual taxpayers?:
The latest data from Statistics Canada, released Monday, is titled “Provisional death counts and excess mortality, January 2020 to April 2021,” and found there were 5,535 deaths in those younger than 65 years of age.
There were 1,380 COVID-related deaths for that same age group, according to StatCan.
That’s more than four times the amount of deaths.
Why won't Justin let people go on with their lives?
Because he is a douche:
However, unlike in the U.S., Europe and the U.K., federal officials in Canada have been exceedingly slow in planning for a return to normalcy. It was only on July 15 that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau broadly hinted that the U.S.-Canada land border would reopen to fully vaccinated Americans in mid-August, and made a rather more vague suggestion that air travel may reopen to vaccinated international tourists in early September, assuming the current progress in vaccination continues. This is far from a definitive announcement. One positive step thus far is that fully vaccinated passengers arriving by air can now enter Canada without the need for a mandatory quarantine assuming that they have passed a COVID-19 screening before their travel and again upon arrival.
(Sidebar: this, this and this.)
The larger problem is that the federal government appears to have no serious plan for a return to normalcy after the pandemic. Hints of a future reopening do not amount to a road map. By saying that vaccine passports fall under provincial jurisdiction, Trudeau has abdicated the federal government’s responsibility in setting a sensible national policy that would facilitate travel both between provinces and at the international borders. Meanwhile, other countries are forging ahead with post pandemic planning, and several European countries already have a functioning system of vaccine passports that facilitates travel and access to indoor events such as concerts.
This must be dreadfully inconvenient for the Narrative:
A study from MIT shows how coronavirus skeptics have marshalled data visualizations online to argue against public health orthodoxy about the benefits of mask mandates. Such “counter-visualizations” are often quite sophisticated, using datasets from official sources and state-of-the-art visualization methods.
The researchers combed through hundreds of thousands of social media posts and found that coronavirus skeptics often deploy counter-visualizations alongside the same “follow-the-data” rhetoric as public health experts, yet the skeptics argue for radically different policies. The researchers conclude that data visualizations aren’t sufficient to convey the urgency of the Covid-19 pandemic, because even the clearest graphs can be interpreted through a variety of belief systems.
You mean that people do their own research?
Interesting.
