80K booster shots given out yesterday (Dec 21). 6.67M fully vaccinated.

At that rate, it'd take 84 days (call it 3 months) for the fully vaccinated to get boosted.

Ontario has approx twice the population of Quebec & gave out 230K vaxxs.

Good news and major step....FDA authorizes TODAY FIRST ORAL ANTIVIRAL-----PFIZER'S PAXLOVID-- for treatment of COVID-19......mild- to -moderate coronavirus disease....and to avoid hospitalization /death......Available on PRESCRIPTION only.

OMICRON = MORONIC ?

Weird choice of name. They laughing.

Pharmacies get about 10$ for each test kit given out. They laughing for sure.

LEGAULT devrait annoncer ce soir le maintient des rassemblements de 10 personnes VACCINÉES pour le 24 et 25 Décembre.....et la mise en place d'un couvre-feu dès le 26 Décembre.....

Oui et non, pas de couvre-feu apparemment, juste limite des rassemblements à 6 personnes de 2 foyers...

Oui et non, pas de couvre-feu apparemment, juste limite des rassemblements à 6 personnes de 2 foyers...

Thank God...no curfew

 

[gaby]

Yep.....no curfew.....LEGAULT y est allé mollo......seul changement effectivement ...en date du 26-12... rassemblements de 6max/2 bulles et restos inclus.

Notes intéressantes......70% des hospitalisations sont des 60 ans et plus ....groupe évidemment plus vulnérable....MAIS aussi fait troublant/indéfendable.....les non vaccinés sont 10% de la population MAIS 50% des patients hospitalisés...incroyable...

come on ..plz.....mais on a affaire à un groupe malheureusement d'irréductibles. Dubé ne se dit pas prêt ENCORE à la vaccination obligatoire mais en contrepartie laisse savoir qu'il pourrait leur rendre la vie encore plus difficile.

Important aussi de noter que les hospitalisations actuelles sont encore les suite du variant Delta en très grande majorité....MAIS la propagation exponentielle du OMICRON va certainement changer la donne dans les prochaines semaines..... avec 80% des cas

positifs actuels ....donc préoccupant...à suivre.

Tomorrow December 23, + 9000 new cases.

 

[minutemenX]

Tomorrow December 23, + 9000 new cases.

So, Quebec finally flattened the curve, vertically.

 

[cloudsurf]

That number is just the tip of the iceberg. It includes only persons who have been tested . Most who are asymptomatic or have mild symptoms will not get tested and not end up on any list. Covid cases in the vast majority of countries are understated for one reason or another.

MAIS aussi fait troublant/indéfendable.....les non vaccinés sont 10% de la population MAIS 50% des patients hospitalisés...incroyable...

Et j'ai bien apprécié le commentaire que notre capacité serait le double sans leur participation au problème

En passant, depuis 30 jours il y a eu 156 hospitalizations de gens de non vaccinés en bas de 50ans vs 34 vaccinés pour le meme group d'age.

Imaginons pas que c'est juste les 'tits vieux le problème

MONTRÉAL ce jour....DRE DROUIN....5000 cas ces 3 derniers jours et 90% OMICRON....population jeune 18-44 ans est la plus touchée.....taux de positivité de 18% ayoye...près de1/5 .....a fait aussi un appel à rester à la maison.

A Montreal health official has informed us that 1 in 5 Montreal people who have been tested are positive for Covid19. If accurate then that`s 20% of the population or about a half a million in the Montreal region. Walk on a busy street downtown and in less than 30 seconds you will have been in near contact to a person with Omicron.
News that this "Darwin`s mistakes" candidate calling himself COVID will find funny.

 

[gaby]

WOW....yep so true.....terrible... far from over... we are just just at the begining ...the peak will probably b in 3-4 weeks.

But is that 1 in 5 that went to be tested or 1 in 5 randomly on the street ? I suspect it's the former. A high positivity rate anyways but not nearly as bad as 1 in 5 in the random population. Anyone going for a test and waiting hours has a high probability of being positive, which is why they are willing to wait hours.

 

[cloudsurf]

It`s most likely a majority of those that volunteer to be tested but includes those that have to be tested like airline passengers . The flip side is many who have covid19 and are asymptomatic or have mild cold like symptoms, are not being tested.

True dat

Wow, lots of immunity coming in 2022

 

[Skym]

So basically Legault announcing that social gatherings should be 6 instead of 10... basically means those South Shore gangbangs is only gonna be 6 guys? Lmao jk

After PFIZER.....FDA today authorizes MERCK'S molnupiravir for treatment of mild-to moderate Covid-19......effective at 30% vs hosp/death.........PFIZER at nearly 90%....
