My work has no intent to get any of us back into the office. They would never meet the social distance requirements. I don't foresee seeing a full office until a vaccine is made.

It's funny that they had opening dates all along and were planning to open regardless of testing, ppe supply and case numbers. I'm gonna say we'll be fully open by mid June at the latest. We will get a second wave but will not shutdown for the second time. Live at your own discression. Had a friend tell me yesterday we need to open back cause he needs to walk his dog in the park. Wtih that type of thinking. Yeah I'm gonna see staying home for a while still.

Went to Longos today, they won't let you in unless you wear a mask.

I think we are all right to be concerned as people are starting to not care/not take this seriously. Even I catch myself being less cautious to be honest.

The second wave seems happening in Korea. South Korea had 0 new domestic cases for 4 straight days a couple of weeks ago. (we still have 1,000 each day) New case developed at a club last week by 1 girl who ignored self quarantine order. Now back to couple hundreds. 20-30 new cases each day since, ALL linked from that club and that girl. One of the club attendee was a private learning center teacher who spread to his students, then to their parents. One guy from the same club infected his uncle and 1yr old nephew It's a Korean site. City of Gunpo's official site. If you click on 33th person, they list all the places she visited until she was admitted to hospital on the 19th http://www.gunpo.go.kr/intro.jspThey also closed high school as soon as it opened. 2 students who were linked to that club tested positive. Above teacher's student went to a karaoke place. 2 OTHER students went to the same karaoke place and got infected.
That is some mad crazy shit. All from 1 person. Should be charged/fined with something. Do they know how/where she got it?

my work sent out a survey about if we "felt safe" going back to the office. The offices are so packed now that there would be 2 or 3 ppl max compare to what it used to be.
I am comfortable with sleeping in, doing my work and getting off and saving 3 hours of commute. I told them I would not feel comfortable until there is a vaccine because I am more "comfortable" at home. ![laugh \:D](/images/graemlins/default/laugh.gif)
An ex-coworker from another company is redoing the whole floor to adhere to social distancing. They are sending their personal stuff home first. I don't see her being back for a long while.

I just checked the news articles again. Actually that girl got the Corona from club then went all over the place despite the order
The guy who brought the virus to the club was all over the country with a coworker, province to province between April 30 - May 6th. Don't know where he got it from. He had the symptoms before going to the club. His coworker also went to the club. Both tested positive after.

and people are complaining online about all this abuse of power rights and freedom etc..
well this is a clear cut example...some people are going to do stupid shit and not use their heads...so guess what you sometimes need Gov to make that decision for you.
I'm sure of the Gov said everyone be safe and do what you think is right, we'd be in a whole diff place right now.

so here's my take on it.
they are closing schools for the rest of the year, but re opening stores and shit. i've gone to grocery stores, shoppers etc and nobody was wearing masks, hundreds of people at niagara falls, downtown etc so a "second" wave of infections would already be happening....however numbers are still the same and same amount of volume at hospitals. with H1N1 there were no closures, basically a free for all and i think it's the same with this covid shit.
basically at this point, unless you're super old or have pre existing medical conditions, i don't think that covid NOW, is as bad as SARS or H1N1 was in it's full extent.

Just watched a news clip uploaded today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arSrgtc63hQ
9 people tested positive from a birthday party for a 1 year old. The photographer was the carrier, who was infected from the teacher who went to the club above.
One of those 9 people is a construction worker. They just shut down the construction site which employee 200+ workers.
The teacher is responsible for 40 people so far.

I was running a few missions yesterday throughout the Toronto and I have to say I am not comfortable with what's happening. One business I was at where social distancing was not possible, no one adhered to any of the mandated policy, not the line ups, not the coverings, people talking together in VERY confined spaces, no masks, no gloves, people from outside walking in and out.
It was uncomfortable to watch, maybe we all have herd immunity by now? I don't know, but it's not looking good.
Also wearing a mask in the heat yesterday was shiiiiity.

lots of news articles and top doctors saying were opening up too fast/soon
I really hope this isn't the case but can't disagree with someone that knows way more about this than I do...
fall second wave could be a big deal...

But the memo seems to take that approach a step further, encouraging civil servants to turn a blind eye to abuse.
i have a feeling the CERB thing will lead to universal income. why even work bro?

It's after the fact now, but Toronto Public Health is stupid. I was sent off for 14 days self isolation because I intubated a patient without a respirator on. They initially presented completely differently so we were wearing surgical masks, but they declined very quickly (within 7 minutes) from normal to flatline so we were caught a little off guard. The decline started as we arrived at the elevator banks to go down to the ambo, to just after we loaded them into the ambo...
When their heart stopped, it happened in the ambo and we intubated her, forgetting to switch masks. We got the patient back so that's the good part. But because it was considered an "unprotected exposure" we were sent off.
We were told that public health would notify us if the patient swabbed positive at the hospital... but not if they swabbed negative. Through sources at the hospital, the patient swabbed negative... and of course my partner and I were asymptomatic... but yet, public health insists on only telling you if the person is positive, and that if you don't get a call you still have to self iso because "it could take a while for them to receive the results." That means you have to stay off the entire 14 days no matter what. I even asked "what if we get swabbed and are negative?" Still no.
So basically, rather than having a full crew back at work... they would rather pay us to be off for 14 days. You might say "hey, 14 day paid vacation!" But it's not. It's isolation... under the umbrella that you don't ACTUALLY know if you're negative. You could be told 10 days into the iso that the person actually tested positive... so for the 2 days until someone told me (which is unofficial) I slept downstairs and didn't hang out with my kids.
Once I found out they were negative, I went back to normal life. However, if public health or Durham Health paid a visit and found that I was out of the house or whatever, I would be nailed hard for breaching my isolation directives.
I hate Toronto Public Health.
No wonder everyone is so fucking scared.

Glad to hear you are negative.
The Cases have been steadily decreasing. I guess we've been doing ok. Need to keep washing hands.
I suspect I won't be in at work until 2020. If they aren't forcing me, I am not going.
