Doug Ford says his government took decisive action last week, which was seven weeks late
"The problem is not in our schools, it is in our community." Well, how did that happen https://twitter.com/Billius27/status/1381258068273602565?s=20
So, schools back to virtual after the April break. This was utterly inevitable, and comes a day the minister of education wrote a letter to parents saying schools would be open unless public health units made the call
Basically, I think the province finally realizes how bad this is, and is now so panicked that they might accidentally, in some cases, try the right thing
What information did the province suddenly receive yesterday that forced this move? Did they just read a month-old newspaper?
Doug Ford says his Friday comments about Ontario doing pretty well were specifically about vaccination. Well, judge for yourself https://twitter.com/yelich_ivana/status/1380591832552386568?s=20
They don't have enough ICU nurses. It is a gigantic problem and from everything I am told, you can't just turn another type of nurse into an ICU nurse. Not possible.
There. Is. No. Plan. There is just panic. https://twitter.com/jessehawken/status/1381688263921037315?s=20
It's not new, but in the last two weeks, the incompetence has been so relentlessly, ruthless exposed. And it's probably not the government that will pay for it.
Good point from @robferguson1: today was the day the government had hoped to open hair salons, barbershops, and tattoo parlours
Doug Ford is trying to blame everyone else for what his government did. That's where we're at.
Feb. 17: medical officers of health https://www.thestar.com/opinion/star-columnists/2021/02/17/the-numbers-are-a-mirage-faced-with-covid-recklessness-toronto-and-peel-medical-officers-of-health-are-at-least-trying-to-protect-us.html
Feb. 19: the association representing the 34 medical officers of health opposes the reopening plans. https://www.thestar.com/opinion/star-columnists/2021/02/19/doug-fords-government-is-buying-time-for-toronto-and-peel-to-outrun-the-variants-but-reality-is-closing-fast-too.html
Feb. 26: Eileen de Villa says the next four weeks are the most dangerous of the pandemic. Dr. Peter Juni, the scientific director of the science table, agreed. https://www.thestar.com/opinion/star-columnists/2021/02/26/better-days-are-ahead-but-the-covid-19-wrestling-match-between-science-and-the-people-in-charge-isnt-over-yet.html
I could keep adding, and adding, and adding to this. The province was warned, over and over, by the hospitals, the doctors, the nurses, the public health officials, the science table, and more, and Doug Ford trying to blame other people for this failure today was simply pathetic.
Here's another one. Before they started reopening. https://twitter.com/bruce_arthur/status/1359352718763188227?s=20
