They tried everything to keep us scared: covid kills the young (it doesn't), covid can cause long term effects, inflammatory syndrome in children, etc. They didn't work and people started seeing all the bullshit.
But then they finally got it right with the variants. People are terrified again and will accept anything.
I wonder how much we're spending to track these variants and feed the hysteria.
I got my tickets to Jakarta. Leaving April 7. I’ll do my quarantine there for a few days (at a reasonable price) and then fly off to Bali. I won’t be back until sanity returns and certainly not before the ridiculous hotel quarantine is lifted. For Jakarta the hotel requirement is 5 days. The prices include dr visits and PCR tests. And we can select from 2 star to 5 star hotels. It’s like booking any trip. You look online and book the place enough want at the price you want.
I’ve lived in Asia for many years. We have a place in Jakarta but are looking to relocate to Bali. For the past few years I’ve split my time between Canada and Asia. This will continue. And given the current situation here I’ll spend more time in Asia.
Of course they do. They’re saying similar things about Europe.
Alberta still hasn’t reopened, and you can tell they’re going to use the variants as reason to stay locked down.
Spring third wave here we come... just in time for Q2.

So you're moving down there permanently then?

Sounds like a fun trip, forced tests, doctors examinations, and a nice sandy beach full of 3rd worlders that hate the color of your skin.
Hard pass
You’ve likely never been to Bali, based on your comment.
In any event, it’s considerably more free now than Quebec. So I’ll take it.
Thank you. All the best to you as well!
Look out for mandatory anal swabs, in addition to mandatory masks and all the other bullshit they're forcing us to put up with.
We have failed our children completely. Future generations will look at us rightfully with sheer contempt at our cowardice.
