The Cuomo model:

pocket 5 million dollars for writing a book about being a leader during a pandemic, mid pandemic, while also being accused of sexual harassment and covering up nursing homes deaths. 

Has anyone here praised Cuomo in recent months? 

If so, I missed it. 

Did I say anyone Praised Cuomo recently?if so, I missed it 

lol

Got Cuomo on the mind even when no one's talking about him, eh? Seems he really got to you.

News of how much he got paid for that ridiculous book came out yesterday. That is all. 

And yes he did really get to me. Is that ok? His actions have direct consequences to me since I live here. 

You are only allowed to reference Trump or shitty republican politicians. Please keep that in mind for future reference.

750,000 deaths in 2016……from working too long of a week.  WTF.

Seems that there were likely a few other factors that contributed to these deaths from stroke and heart disease in folks between 60-79 that don't get a mention.
Like how many of these folks smoked? (as it says a significant number came from West Pacific and Southeast Asian regions, I'd wager more than a few).
How many were obese, had poor diets, high cholesterol, hypertension etc. etc.?

These are experienced researchers and these factors are considered in the analysis. The issue is complex, of course, and there are several different mechanisms by which longer work hours contribute to increased morbidity and mortality, both by direct physiological actions and by increasing the likelihood of other unhealthy behaviours such as higher rates of smoking and lower physical activity.

Here is a link to the study, so you can look at the methodology and reasons for conclusions:

Edit: don't rely on mainstream media to fully report on scientific findings

Trudeau just "announced" that Canada will have to get to 75% vaccinated before he reopens the Canada/US border. 

I don't have any certainty we will get to 75% but I hope we get close.  The older age cohorts have done a great job with vaccination rates in the 80+%. I've seen some modelling that suggests we will get to this rate, maybe by mid-summer, and others that suggest we won't. Earlier on in the pandemic the majority of Canadians had no interest in having the border open again, but that may be softening now. I hope that the feds are more using the 75% mark for opening up to goad people into getting vaccinated if they are on the fence.

Canada is projected to pass the US in rate of first dose vaccinations given by the end of this week. 

Single. Hope 20% both simultaneously.

Edit: that's what she said.

Haha. Sure seems that way. And that’s not a good thing at all. A shitty person is a shitty person no matter race, party , gender etc....  

You’re right. 

I'll have a look for a source where I got that number in my head a few days back...
