Health officials are hinting at ending COVID restrictions (and not because of the truckers)

The overarching goal of Freedom Convoy 2022 was for the federal government to declare the immediate lifting of all COVID-19 mandates across Canada.

It was, at root, a politically unrealistic demand, given that most mandates are imposed at the provincial level. But there is nevertheless a growing chorus of politicians and health experts now saying that it’s time for Canada to officially abandon extraordinary COVID-19 measures and “learn to live with” the virus.

“We have let our lives be controlled for the last two years in a significant amount of fear and now we are going to have to change some of that thinking,” Ontario’s top doctor Kieran Moore said in a public address last Thursday.

Moore added, “we can’t eliminate this threat, in fact, we have to learn to live with it.”

Eileen de Villa, medical officer of health for the City of Toronto, similarly said last Friday that residents should gird themselves for a future in which COVID-19 is managed like influenza.

“Some flu seasons are worse than others. We know it has impact on our health-care system, and yes, it does make a number of people sick, unfortunately, and yes, unfortunately some people do lose their lives to it,” she said, adding that Canadians must nevertheless “find ways of balancing other activities of life along with the control measures.”

I despise the government.
They will never admit they are wrong.
That level of arrogance and narcissism, is
not tolerable to a free man.

I think there are so many people so invested in the COVID team sports paradigm that they’d rather die on this hill of forced vaccinations than let the other side get a win even they mostly already agreed to the idea in principle. It can’t be a situation where those dirty bad people win, it must be the good people winning.

The problem with that is, they lost all of that good will when they asked those dirty bad people for two weeks to flatten the curve. If there was any left after that, they lost it by embracing the race riots while imposing lockdowns elsewhere. The truckers have a vote, and they have a right to live their lives, and they know how to drive a double clutch. Good luck finding an obedient jackboot who can tow that out of your way.

The health care system does a terrible job of managing the annual flu season, so I have no faith that they will be able to do anything meaningful in “managing” COVID. The flu shots always end up being formulated for the wrong strain of the flu virus, and based upon my own experience with them I seriously doubt that they’re all that effective even under the best circumstances. I really think that people put blind faith into them and just assume that if they don’t get the flu or get a mild case then it must be because they got a flu shot (gee, sound familiar?). I wouldn’t expect health care “experts” to be any better at chasing the annual COVID variant.

Just stockpile the therapeutics that we know work, and get on with life.

Covid has been a LIE from the getgo.........PERIOD

“The PCR is a Process. It does not tell you that you are sick”.

Dr. Kary Mullis, Nobel Laureate and Inventor of the RT-PCR, passed away in August 2019.

“…All or a substantial part of these positives could be due to what’s called false positives tests.”

Dr. Michael Yeadon: former Vice President and Chief Science Officer for Pfizer

This misuse of the PCR-RT technique is applied as a relentless and intentional strategy by some governments to justify excessive measures such as the violation of a large number of constitutional rights, … under the pretext of a pandemic based on a number of positive RT-PCR tests, and not on a real number of patients.

.Dr. Pascal Sacré, Belgian physician specialized in critical care and renowned public health analyst.

I saw my primary care doctor today and even he said this stuff has gone on long enough. He also said that the recommendations being made aren't supported by the evidence and while he had the initial vaccinations he's personally not going to take the booster. In his words "the initial vaccine is enough for me". I asked him if they were seeing a lot of covid and he said yes, but few are getting very sick from it. He said that their test doesn't differentiate between omicron and other variants but the state department of health tells them that the majority of covid cases in our area are omicron.

Basically he said he's done with it, it's time to move on.

Canada is a bit ahead of the USA average, for their omicron wave. They had a big wave there, relatively speaking, and are down about 3/4 from their peak.

The reality is that it is winding down there, like it does elsewhere, after the omicron wave.

It is just time to drop the restrictions. Unfortunate that some politicians need such strong prompting to do so.

When do the Flu Bros get their apology?

Any day now, Biden will declare that he is removing all restrictions as he has defeated the chinaflu, the media will cooperate by stopping all coverage of the virus and praising Biden as America’s savior.

Moore added, “we can’t eliminate this threat, in fact, we have to learn to live with it.” >>>>>>>>>>>>>

NOT TRUE.

We need to use Ivermectin and make it available over the ounter after educating EVERYONE how to use it properly.

Exactly Right FRiend.If they did that in the beginning some 3 years ago, we would have won this battle by now.

“any day” being much closer to election day when folks are paying more attention, and dementia joe’s declaration that he “defeated covid” MIGHT have more impact then ... (of course, the stark REALITY of empty shelves, no cars for sale, no houses for sale, and skyrocketing prices for daily items like food and energy are going to override pretty much all propaganda)

The pandemic no longer will allow the dems total control so now they will incite a war. Biden will then declare a national emergency and declare Marital Law. Then he will cancel elections for November because of the “danger to our democracy” and all will remain the same. Dems really have no intention of losing power. They do not care about the low polls because they never intend to have an honest election again. They do not play fair or care about the American people.

The problem is true, the big decisions aren’t being made by doctors, but by stupid politicans and their power-hungry civil servants

they’re the bozos who invented the 6-foot rule, demanded masks everywhere, imposed lockdowns, invented the 10-day-isolation-period-after-a-positive-test, etc.

NONE of those measures ever had any scientific backing

the FDA (another bureaucracy) continues to denigrate Ivermectin, recommending against it ... so doctors won’t use it

very little real science in this mess ... and that’s the way some people want it!

Meanwhile, get a load of this study from Canada, where contacts of positives were allowed to go to work in healthcare settings...

Should healthcare workers with SARS-CoV-2 household exposures work? A Cohort Study

...Allowing vaccinated asymptomatic HCWs who are known household contacts of confirmed COVID-19 cases to work is likely a safe alternative, when staff shortage is anticipated.

Wow.
