Ontario’s Chief Medical Officer says that those who refuse to take the COVID vaccine won’t have “freedom to move around” and will have to continue to wear masks.

Dr. David Williams was asked if he “would make some sort of mandatory vaccination recommendation.”

Williams acknowledged that “we can’t force someone to take a vaccine,” but when on to explain how people who didn’t take it would have their freedom of mobility severely restricted.

“What we can do is to say sometimes for access or ease of getting into certain settings, if you don’t have vaccination then you’re not allowed into that setting without other protection materials,” said Williams.

Yeah that's pretty disgusting. People are being ruled by totalitarian thugs and aren't doing anything about it. When and how will it end? America is now controlled by big tech, corporations and media. Politicians are irrelevant useful idiots for these people. The future looks bleak without a massive revolution and uprising.

I remember in the early 50's where we had quarantines and a pseudo ban on gatherings. Parents kinda insisted that we kids did not associate with other kids-It was a polio thing-we would know at the end of May to know it the pool would be closed for the summer or if open, wonder the pool would close due to an outbreak of 1. Rubella had that effect too. For some reason our WWII era parents were kinda weary of death.

Stopped at about 9.5 when he started going into personal mantras, but this is really happening. In San Jose, they're locking us all in again. In the plaza where my wife has her store and these businesses, already bleeding their life savings, have put out still more capital and effort to provide services outdoors for less volume, are now getting knocked down again, and more and more are simply not getting back up. The hottest selling item is dark film for the front windows while trusted customers are served in the backs of places. They are not being criminals, but the truth is they have to eat, and the government is taking that away from them.

The California rule is based on the % of ICU beds available, with cities like ours deciding to implement anyway before hitting that point. When China took care of Wuhan, the city was putting up new hospitals to expand capacity in weeks. If the government truly cared, they would have expanded capacity.

Over 50% of the storefronts in San Francisco have closed for good. We have multiple vaccines now ready and awaiting approvals. This is one last swipe of that small eternal flame of freedom that stands between a chasm of the connected and the poor....because the leadership here is lazy. Their success is so far removed from being an actual leader of the people that they just don't care anymore.

Lets go over that logic. The mask wearing idea has a third party argument. Droplets from an infected person can affect a third party. The wearer is to a good extent protecting others not worrying about the extend that it does for the sake of the argument.



What is the vaccine argument exactly? If you choose to have it, then you are "protected" from the 3rd party. . Its the people who don't take it who are at risk.

People are being ruled by the corona virus and until we get the vaccine we`re at the mercy of bad citizens. If we ever had to go to war for our survival, not one of our military misadventures but a real war, we wouldn`t last long. Being shot at is probably worse than having to wear a mask.

Well we don't know how long immunity will last from the vaccine. So if there are a considerable amount of people who refuse to vaccinate the disease can continue to spread among that population. If the vaccine is only good for a year or so then we could find ourselves in this same situation a couple of years from now.

If you say the government if it cared .... would have expanded capacity in our hospitals? Then why object to some minimum Insurance for all policy and over government control on hospitals like the VA system? Can't have it both ways.

On closed storefronts in cities. This too shall pass. Yes some stores and eateries will not reopen as they were. Still our system will have new eateries come back. Retail is hurting because of on-line sales for years now. That will still have that after this pandemic to effect it.

We know California and cities are in a extreme mode on many things from nimbyism in SF to taxation on and on. It was always though. When was California or SF and LA NOT labeled Progressive Liberal and Hollywood immoral to commies and Jewish run?

How much but for levels perhaps and homelessness levels are new? California was always pricier. We all cannot move to sunny no winter regions and COL prevents more. Still growth was phenomenal for the 20th century and Silicon Valley etc still evolved.
