Thor I think its because IGA is not a charity or an org that helps people in need, and is an actual work place. if you want to do deliveries for orgs that help people then you would not need to get paid is my understanding

Local foods banks are great but also Churches as they have a network of people who are/know elderly or at risk people who need help especially at this time. I have been doing this for the past two weeks...picking up (from food banks or grocery stores) and delivering food to those people enlightening to see these people and makes you appreciate what you have.
BOYSZ!
There's a lot to take in consideration on the number of deaths.
# of Cases, Infection rate / propagation, Health care system ability to provide proper care and equipment, etc.
I believe that if the health care system doesn't have the ventilators to support the recovery stage, your survival rate is slim. Meaning people that are infected and need the support to pass the critical stage are where the nerve of the war is. If they are left on their own the death rate will grow.
If you have 1M infected person, 100K of them need vital support within a week and you health care system can only support 10K, the 90K people that aren't helped will face death.
The number will grow when the system can't support the infected one. This Corona-virus is highly infectious. It's not the regular flu where you might have a chance to get away.

Dr. Drew is an American and medical expert and his show is followed by many Americans. So these comments on the coronavirus have an impact.
Here is a video of these words:

I am happy to live in Quebec, because we don't have Dr. Drew, and I prefer not to speak of Trump because I don't have words strong enough to speak of this narcissistic man.
Luckily, he just apologized for his comments.
Unfortunately it is too late, the damage is done.

Ain’t this the guy who used to give sex advice on NYC top 40 radio station back in the day! Dr. Drew, the name sounds familiar
Indeed. Shark's quiet here since post #23.
So many took the whole thing "a la Trump" and were in denial... That is what success can do to you in life. It makes you think you are invincible.
Like this stupid billionaire Rosenberg who went on with the wedding of his daugther march 16... Now fighting to stay alive.
Sharkman has not posted in a while and I would be concerned he might have Covid-19 and is in a hospital. I am not really sure but he may be single and not have anyone checking on him. Perhaps one of you guys in Montreal who know him can call him or take a run by his home and check on him. I live alone myself, and if I caught C-19 and took a fast turn for the worse I would prefer that my neighbors not be the ones to find me dead. It would probably be my legal assistant. She would be the first one to text me if I did not show up at work or did not send her an assignment, and after getting no response to her texts, she would probably be the one to find me dead (just guessing but good odds that she would be the one).

I figure that Boris Johnson's condition got worse since he's been absent during the daily briefing by the UK government. His 32 year old girlfriend, who is pregnant with their child, has also tested positive for Covid19.
What fake news. It's certainly is not anymore.
Today, NYT is reporting:
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/05/...action=click&module=Spotlight&pgtype=Homepage
"LONDON — Prime Minister Boris Johnson was hospitalized on Sunday evening after 10 days of battling the coronavirus, unnerving a country that had gathered to watch Queen Elizabeth II rally fellow Britons to confront the pandemic and reassure them that when the crisis finally ebbed, “we will meet again.”
The British government said that Mr. Johnson would be undergoing tests and that he would continue to carry out his duties.
But the uncertainty generated by his persistent illness underscored the sense of crisis that led the queen to address the country in a rare televised speech that evoked the darkest days of World War II."

Yes, it's true. Boris Johnson has been admitted to the hospital for testing:

Here is the video Boris posted on March 27 which announced his positive test. Reportedly, since then, his fever has spiked:

Hang in there Boris!

Yep. I wish him well. Covid 19 is really testing the EU experiment. Brexit may prove to have been important in saving Briton's NHS. Regardless of what one thinks about Boris, I would gladly grab a pint with him over fish and chips in a London pub.
I used to be a news junkie, now I'm back to my old habits because of the "stay-at-home" mandates.
I'm baffled by what appears to be a disproportionate numbers of fatalities in Italy from Covid 19. (I believe the numbers from China are absolutely bogus. Germany's numbers might be the most accurate but Germany too suffers from inadequate testings.)
US numbers are also problematic. WP is reporting today.

"The fast-spreading novel coronavirus is almost certainly killing Americans who are not included in the nation’s growing death toll, according to public health experts and government officials involved in the tally.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention counts only deaths in which the presence of the coronavirus is confirmed in a laboratory test. “We know that it is an underestimation,” agency spokeswoman Kristen Nordlund said."
Gotta remember he’s U.K. PM. What warrants him getting admitted to the hospital will be different than the average Londoner. Hope it’s just a 24 observation admission.
Exactly. They would not have made it to the media if it was not serious shit.
Never said it wasnt possibility EB, just sayin he’s PM and they would be extra cautious with him. Again, hope it’s just 24 hour obs
