Ontario health officials are investigating how a man who attended a major conference in Toronto contracted COVID-19, fearing the case marks the start of local transmission of the virus in the province.

Public Health Sudbury and Districts, which posted details of the case online Tuesday evening, said a man in his 50s tested positive for COVID-19 after attending the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada conference on March 2 and 3. According to organizers, the annual event attracts 25,000 attendees from more than 130 countries.

Apparently both Prince Justine, and Doug Ford were also at that conference...

Who are Prince Justine and Doug Ford?

Did it ever cross anyone’s mind that people are trying to spread this on purpose. One guy shows up at big events including political events and is reported in a day or two to test positive for coronavirus. With MSM sounding the alarm the “WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE” from this flu and folks self isolating including republican politicians and the cancelation of large crowd events and now Clayborn calling for the cancelation of the rest of the primaries and declare Joe Biden as the winner. Clayborn’s home freezer or overcoat need to be checked for large sums of money. Never let a disaster go to waste.

So what’s your point? Believe it or not, some people are catching the virus. This is not news.

And even here, people are encouraging panic.

Soon enough the media is going to say that Joe Biden supporters didn’t attend any of his campaign events because they were so prescient that they knew enough about the corona virus to avoid public gatherings.

Soon they'll be telling us it's a miner disease...

BTW, I heard China is calling it 'the Italian Flu' Can anyone confirm?

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada,
and The Honourable Doug Ford, Premier of the Province of Ontario.

You say that as if *I*, somehow, control the media. You want to snipe at someone, how about you go and snipe at *them*?

/shooting the messenger and all of that...

Ah...thanks for the explanation. LOL at the moniker Prince Justine.

It sure has crossed my mind. I’m a very rational minded person not given to far out conspiracy theories, but I don’t think it is outside the realm of possibility that some people are intentionally trying to spread it. There certainly have been irresponsible prominent leftists who seem to encourage a whatever-it-takes-to-get-Trump mindset among their followers.
