In other truth related news, as the UK passes the 1000 case a day mark again - our total deaths have just been reduced by 5000!! Logic is somewhat flawed in calculating it once more.starting to think figures are little more than a random number generator! |

Reminder Wal-Mart requires masks now, and if these folks interviewed in Kelowna are any indication, I'd hate to be an employee there today, assuming they are enforcing it. Maybe it's why Super Store was so busy today, they don't require masks.

I wonder if there's any way to get on the inside track for that job. Once it's in the paper there could be 15,000+ applicants for 500 jobs.

Don't let the media scare you with case numbers. Remember that for 99% of those new cases, the infected people have very mild symtoms and recover OK at home.
Keep your eye on the admitted to ICU and death numbers. 8 currently in hospital - 5 in ICU |
