[QUOTE="Rruuff Day, post: 199174, member: 2217"] Just talked with my sister in Ottawa. A little wake up call that Canada, or at least Ontario have no clue how many people have the virus and don't seem to care it seems. My neice in London and her husband have both come down with fever, dry cough, etc. She is a massage therapist who was still working up until 2 days ago. They called the covid hotline and relayed their symptoms and when they told them they hadn't been out of the country, they were told that because of this, they would not be tested for covid and if they started having trouble breathing, to call them back. Much like the 51 year old resident who was told at the hospital he just had pnemonia and was sent home. He is now one of the fatalities of covid. Tested after death. Luckily they are both young and no underlying illness but still, if they are trying to keep the curve accurate, this doesn't say much other than the health system is not capable of handling this epidemic whatsoever and don't really care how many undiagnosed cases are out there. No surprise though as the health system has been incapable of handling most illness for many years now. Take care of yourselves people and don't rely on getting much help if you do get sick. [/QUOTE]
