Passengers wear masks and gloves as they arrive for their flight at Pearson Airport in Toronto on Friday, March 13, 2020. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Frank GunnTORONTO -- The Canada-U.S. border has been closed since March and it won’t be reopening “anytime soon,” according to a health policy expert who says there may yet be other strategies to allow for safe travel and shorter quarantine periods during the pandemic.
The aim of Goel’s study is to determine how many arriving passengers have COVID-19 and to use that data to inform government policy on border controls and quarantine measures. He said they want to find out if a testing program could be used to replace or reduce the amount of time people spend in quarantine when they arrive in Canada.
One such way could be the use of location-based monitoring, according to Goel, which might require recent travellers to check in on their cellphones on a daily basis and confirm their location using GPS. Before the Canadian border can be fully reopened, however, Goel said the virus has to be brought under control at home and in the countries where travellers are originating from. He also said Canada has to be prepared for future spikes in coronavirus cases before lifting border control measures.

No, because liberal Americans infected with a virus called socialism. That, and their support of the domestic terrorists groups known as blm and antifa represents a threat to Canada. Keep the border closed. Build a wall.
No. Not until a vaccine has been given to enough Canadians to provide herd immunity.

Facebook removes Trump post falsely saying flu is more deadly than COVID-19Facebook on Tuesday removed a post from U.S. President Donald Trump in which he falsely claimed that COVID-19 is less deadly than the seasonal flu. 10% of the population has had COVID and never got tested. If you add those numbers in then Trump is 100% right. He's right. The man should be in jail. Instead he’s making a joke out of the Presidency!

Australia expects COVID-19 vaccination is still a year awayAustralia considered a rollout of a coronavirus vaccine no sooner than mid-2021 a best-case scenario in its pandemic planning that would save the economy tens of billions of dollars, the treasurer said on Wednesday.
