@Yomama2397 @SharkawyMD Stop dreaming. Smaller classes will never happen!

@LauraAlward @DFisman @imgrund A message to who? Do you really think they care what David Fisman has to say?

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@M42ra6 @SharkawyMD How is a lockdown going to solve the problem?

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@stevenamarko @imgrund Highly unlikely.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@AccessibleOpr8r @imgrund Well they never used those field hospitals. That was all a waste of resources. The money should have been directed to long term increase in ICU capacity.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@garlickd13 @imgrund Window dressing.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@bridgetfewtrell @imgrund "act immediately"? Your joking right. When has that ever happened?

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@BethBlp8 @imgrund What was the point of vaccination if we are to have recurring lockdowns?

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@wesSE22020 @imgrund What will a lockdown accomplish?
That is not a long term strategy every time things flare up.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@jmoody50 @imgrund What would a lockdown accomplish??

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@imgrund An interesting premise but I don't think the vaccinated population would tolerate another lockdown. It just won't jive with election calculus for next June.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@imgrund It is also on the government for not funding sufficient ICU capacity. 300 shouldn't be the crisis point for a population of almost 15 million.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@imgrund Why is Israel who was the poster child for vaccination now apparently the worst in the world?
Purely and educational question as I am zero percent anti Vax.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@Karen_88 @imgrund I think you will have a hard time convincing the vaccinated population that they have to make significant concessions to those who aren't vaccinated.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@imgrund I wish Dr. Richardson had paid attention months ago. The vaccination rollout in Hamilton has been lackluster at best.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@oliovlov @imgrund What we are seeing in Hamilton is the result of a mediocre vaccination rollout.
Hamilton Public Health has lacked much creative thinking. Large areas of the city under vaccinated and vulnerable.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@notkent @imgrund The key thing to watch will be hospitalization and ICU occupancy. This will take some time to gauge. I honestly don't think people will accept Province wide rollbacks. There may need to be certain local restictions.

@drjenniferbaer @ElitaSaulle @themommynook @imgrund @Sflecce @fordnation @celliottability @BogochIsaac I think it gets into pretty murky legal territory for a drug that only has emergency use authorization.

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@ElitaSaulle @themommynook @imgrund @Sflecce @fordnation @celliottability @BogochIsaac Everyone is passing the buck. It becomes a slippery slope. What happens if there is a severe reaction with a child under 12? Who takes responsibility?

[Hamilton Dave @HamiltonDave3]

@themommynook @imgrund @Sflecce @fordnation @celliottability @BogochIsaac That is an excellent question. I just went on the Health Canada and it clearly states approval for 12 and up.
