Duncan family speaks after father gets COVID-19A Vancouver Island family is urging everyone to get vaccinated after a vaccine-hesitant father of two ended up in ICU with COVID-19. Funny how they become advocates after it affects them. I don't wish COVID on anyone but I have to dig deep to sympathize with these folks. Getting tired of these stories of people that chose not to get vaccinated. Maybe they should have listened to the science nine months ago when the vaccines were approved.rediculous 😕

Medical regulator warns several Alberta doctors about sharing COVID-19 misinformationMedical regulator warns several Alberta doctors about sharing COVID-19 misinformation. It says the number of doctors painting a false narrative in the province is unprecedented Please name and shame them all Don't trust doctors. Interesting. So I guess people must only listen to the doctors that only follow the narrative of the politicians and are interviewed on the mainstream news media. All scientists have disagreements with other scientists. There are dissenting views in science all the time.

Sask. children's hospital ICU accepts adults in COVID-19 surge planThe Saskatchewan Health Authority is shuttling some adult intensive care patients to the province’s children’s hospital in the face of surging COVID-19 cases. It’s a Covid surge plan, not reality, just like three other children’s hospitals in Canada all created a plandemic to accept adults but none of them ever had to do it. Only sick kids Toronto brought one adult in for a press photo op. More fake news. Imagine being that guy who takes away an ICU bed from a child, just because they are too stupid to get vaccinated!

Did Justin give any of our 400 000? Wait, you promised us that PMJT procured 400 million doses. He didn't make them available for Canadians as 1.25 million are not considered vaxed in other jurisdictions due to being forced to choose nothing or AZ and a mRNA vax...
