FEAR PORN is ramping up — BC Is Betting Wrong on COVID, Say Critics — Canadian Press (not even waiting until the fall cold/flu season?)
Experts warned today that British Columbia is putting people at risk by lifting protective measures as the BA2 subvariant brings a second, unpredictable Omicron wave in the province.
The Omicron subvariant is 20 to 30 per cent more transmissible than the original Omicron, and now comprises at least 75 per cent of cases in B.C.
“We’ve got an Omicron rerun, minus protections,” said Dr. Brenda Hardie, a physician with public health advocacy group Protect Our Province BC.
“And we saw the highest number of deaths and hospitalizations we’ve ever seen in Omicron one,” she said.

Flu season. Typically these migrate from the west coast and go east, I am expecting Alberta next, shall see what the rhetoric says. Kenney getting a confidence vote today so Alta could flip back to the fear porn state.
Gaah. Here we go again. “Experts say….”
Who the f*** is deciding that these people are “experts”?
Not that the public would question it. They hear the word “expert” and think its the indisputable truth. Then we get every idiot in the province testing themselves on an ongoing basis, then the “cases” go up, then the whole damn province goes back to mandatory face rags.
And it never ends.
GAAAAAAAH 🙁
