Canada looking like it is light years behind the US regarding opening up and loosening restrictions. I know we are behind in vaccines but even that green fall restriction guideline does not have me super excited for seeing concerts again anytime soon here.
I think America is ahead of most places, which is going to cause interesting things with the border. I'm guessing with the US situation getting under control they're going to want to reopen the border.
I'm only getting my first shot in a few days, and they still need to work from the 40s down to the 12s. Then rinse and repeat. It is possible the US might start exporting even more vaccines which could expedite our efforts?
I think we're doing pretty good for a country that's had no capacity to make vaccines for a long while.

Ya I think we are doing ok all things considered with vaccinations. I was critical in the past on spacing out the shots but evidence is showing now that it might be more beneficial to do so. I hope those that got their first shot however are going to get their second too.
I do not see 75% of the population getting their shot though. Maybe I am wrong but that is not a number that will be attainable by fall or ever. I see more than 25% of the population passing on this vaccine in Canada. I am hoping that that they are posting such a large number that they are in order to try and convince those on the fence to get the shot to help towards herd immunity and opening back up. When they do not reach that number what then? We just sit idle waiting for what? People to slowly get sick and get herd immunity through infection?
I get the US is ahead too but if you look at those restrictions this whole summer they are advising masks indoors and out for vaccinated people. That is ridiculous imo. The restrictions that they are showing being lifted by fall are pretty weak compared to wear the US stands today with restrictions. Maybe that can change but to have 75% of your population full vaccinated by the fall and still have a note saying you will still need to follow some public health measures is bullshit imo.

Yeah, when I was reading yesterday about the goal of 75% vaccine coverage before loosening up restrictions I got a bit disheartened. It’s a pretty high bar to require.

I think vaccinations are coming along really well now after a slow start. We are behind the US and the UK but ahead of almost every other major country in doses given per capita (leaving aside tiny little places like Monaco - it’s easy to vaccinate your population when you only have a few tens of thousands in a small space).
I am usually in favour of being cautious about lifting restrictions but these guidelines out-caution even me Ah well, this will help avoid another wave, and if things go really well with the US reopening then perhaps we will speed up a bit.
Edit: Anyone over 20 is eligible to book their vaccine appointment as of today in BC; not sure about the other provinces.

This last Monday Alberta opened the vaccine up to everyone 12 and over. It looks like our covid numbers here are finally starting to fall too. I think combo of nice weather, vaccines and our new restrictions the covid numbers will fall off a cliff.
I'm very optimistic about this summer. I should have my second AstraZeneca shot by the end of July at the latest. The darkest days are behind us, fingers crossed.

This is my county, metro Richmond, VA. We only had 9 new cases in the last 24 hours. Two weeks ago, it was 54. So things are dropping very quickly. Vax + sane precautions have worked. Kids have been back in school for a few months too.

Good news! Stay safe in the meantime.
I am fortunate enough to have received both doses and am 10 days past the second. I must admit it does provide a big sense of relief.

Can't believe people are so small they can't acknowledge the speed with which we had a vaccine.
You tiny little person - why should anyone be wasting a single breath on the guy who never spoke for most, and made critical thought a party sin?
Trump convinced susceptible morons that the virus didn't exist when he knew otherwise. To anyone with a sense of decency, that's unforgivable. Biden took a different position and encouraged rational evidence-driven thought, and deaths decreased under his watch. Even if Trump had absolutely excelled at Project Warp Speed, it wouldn't hold a candle to the damage he has done to this democracy and the social fabric.

pay attention.
once again, for those in the back PFIZER WAS NOT INVOLVED WITH OPERATION WARP SPEED!!
typical trumper. not being informed, and giving dear leader credit for shit dear leader had nothing to do with.
They were. Just not in the same sense as other organizations. They didn’t receive funding for development, but did receive $2 billion for delivery and distribution of a vaccine.
Pfizer entered into a contract to sell vaccine to the US government. While the money from the contract probably helped to fund the development, they could have entered into a similar contract with many other countries, and in fact did. They of course expected to be paid to provide a product.

Hey that's great. There's a few guys on the board from here. Are you moving into the city or one of the counties?
And aren't you from Cleveland? I'm from the west side (Strongsville). You'll love the weather here. The winter is not bad at all and only July to August beats you up with heat.
Getting back to covid news, in the US 47% of the population has received at least one shot of vaccine. In Canada, despite all the whining and griping from some, 44% of the population has received at least one shot. Of course the US has a much higher percentage of individuals who have received both shots, but Canada is vaccinating a growing percentage each day, whereas in the US daily vaccinations are shrinking. Polls suggest that a smaller percentage of Canadians than Americans do not intend to get vaccinated at all, and a modest chunk are still on the fence (what are you waiting for, fence-sitters? an engraved invitation?)
Unless things change it won't be long until Canada has a higher percentage of people with at least one shot. I hope this doesn't derail the plans to reopen the border.

There's no doubt that Canada will have a higher percentage of vaccinated people. I'd put 20 to 1 on it without blinking. We politicize everything here and create idiots.
