Ontario and Quebec dropped the ball hard with protecting long-term care residents. The CFR for Peel LTC/RH residents circa July 16th (their data is out of date) was 31%. I don't know about now. But this virus reaks havoc on people who are at the twilight of their life.

The CFR for my demo (30-39) in Peel is 0%. Hospitalization rate 2.5%.

The CFR for my dad's demo (70-79 year olds in Peel who don't live in LTC/RH) circa July 16th was 12.1%. The hospitalization rate (including LTC/RH residents) for his age group is 32%. He has cancer however most 70-79 year olds in Peel probably have pre-existing conditions too like heart disease, diabetes, obesity, stroke survivors, etc. So I am concerned about this virus more than most people but people act like the death rate is 100% if you are old and sick.

The amount of shaming I see in the media directed towards people under 40 for rebelling against the notion of sacrificing the prime of their life for the old and sick is retarded for a virus right now that literally has less than 80 Ontarians hospitalized and kills 2-3 Ontarians a day. The 2017-18 flu/pneumonia killed 23 Canadians per 100,000 in 2018. Assuming Ontario flu/pneumonia deaths are comparable to Canada, that's 9-10 Ontarians a day dying to flu/pneumonia. We crushed the fucking shit out of the curve here. The old have already lived full lives. What the fuck. The immunocompromised have been terrified of getting colds even before this pandemic.

The wait for a safe effective vaccine is likely to be over a year. We've already waited nearly 5 months. Maybe years. There has never been a vaccine even for common cold coronaviruses. So we're just supposed to give up our youth for the old and sick?
