They’re lost, and so are you.

In his address to the province on December 14, Dr. Kieran Moore concluded his remarks as follows:

“Getting your COVID-19 shot is important, but we know that it isn’t enough to prevent spread.  It is essential that individuals continue to adhere to basic public health measures, including reducing your total number of contacts, wearing a well-fitted mask from nose to chin, washing your hands frequently, physical distancing, and staying home when ill even with mild symptoms, and get tested if you have symptoms compatible with COVID-19.  These actions in combination with vaccination can help to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19 and its variants, protect public health, and health care capacity, and save lives.”

Logically, Dr. Moore admitted that vaccines don’t prevent infection, even with a booster.  But the “public health measures” he recommends are known to be worthless and amount to nothing more than displacement activities.  In the first place, they didn’t stop waves two and three.  It has been known since August, 2020, that the COVID-19 virus spreads via airborne transmission, meaning the hand washing and surface cleaning are useless.  Unless the mask is an N-95 or better, mask wearing is useless because they don’t catch virus-sized particles.  Cloth masks are proven useless, and surgical masks are proven only slightly less useless.  Social distancing prevents sputum transmission.

Staying home is also wrong.  Treatment with therapeutics work best early on, and so one should seek them out immediately, at the hospital or wherever.  What do you mean Ontario doesn’t have therapeutics like monoclonal antibodies?  Why not??

His statement about reducing social contacts simply proves that they haven’t figured it out yet.  Social contacts among the uninfected won’t transmit COVID.  It’s breathing too much virus-contaminated air that transmits the disease.  The variants, and vaccinations, and masking are all about one’s susceptibility to infection having inhaled a certain amount of virus-containing air.  Social contact is, at best, a weak and distant co-variant of breathing contaminated air.  They don’t get it.

Alberta experienced a fourth wave with freshly vaccinated people, and even now, nearly three ons after the peak, cases remain on the high side.  Vaccination, at best, amounts to an expensive therapeutic in anticipation of infection, if it doesn’t leave you more vulnerable to infection as it wears off.

All the health care professionals care about tis their precious system, which isn’t doing much else the last two years except bracing for COVID or recovering from COVID.

Ontario is going to get its fourth wave because the virus has become prevalent there, and the extreme contagiousness of Omicron means that protection measures are useless.
