How long did it end up taking? Mr S went there for a 2:25 appointment and from the minute he got in the first line to standing on the subway platform to come home was 1 hour. There were anti-vaxxers out at the Scotiabank clinic giving fake, long waiting times to try and get people to give up...

As well, early on, they were planning to rely on a homegrown vaccine. it did well in Stage 1 trials, but was dropped due to "false positive HIV result due to a protein contained in the potential vaccine" https://globalnews.ca/news/7515848/coronavirus-vaccine-australia-pfizer/

It hasn't had the final vote yet. Today is third reading.

My grandmother is 103 (or is it 104?) and she survived COVID. We say she's too mean to die.

Same thing for me. Tried briefly Monday and Tuesday (I wasn't even sure where Bradford and Tottenham were). With the city announcing that more appointments were being released at 8 today, I spent an hour refreshing the page and finally booked June 28 at North Toronto Memorial Community Centre...

At this point, I think the US case data is becoming less meaningful. Even the blurb under the graph title implies it's not accurate as to total cases. From the same website, the US is lower in tests per 1000 and I feel like for many states (say Florida), the case data is getting sketchier and...

That's certainly the way Space (CTV SciFi) has gone. They used to have a great show called Inner Space that reported on sci-fi, comics, fantasy, etc. and to use NL's phrase, hosted by people passionate and knowledgeable about sci fi. Thanks, Bell

But then he was the only councillor to vote against sidewalk snow removal downtown. A case of I've got mine and screw the rest of you.

I saw a tweet that said something like, send them back for 2 weeks, but no real teaching. Let them spend time running around with their friends and give the parents a break.

My issue at home is not having a great desk, chair, computer set up. If I were to keep working from home, I'd have to fix that. And I don't want to. I've actually been in the office on and off and realized how much I prefer being in the office. Fewer distractions, better desk set up, all the...

Interesting data point in the US is that they have given about 9 million doses of the one dose J&J vaccine. That is included in the 'fully vaccinated' number. We are not using it here. I hope the reports are true that Ontario will proceed with second doses of AZ.

Body aches, fever, chills, headache and tiredness. Not so bad as actual COVID, but just seemed to go on and on. Ever day around 3 pm, my fever would start to rise and I'd be under 4 blankets.

So a full week after having my first AZ shot, I finally feel almost normal again. I never expected my immune response would be so strong and long lasting. I even called Telehealth, but they were more concerned with making sure I was experiencing any of the blood clot symptoms.

Yeah, I got my AZ shot on Tuesday morning and I still feel kind of crappy 48 hours later. On and off, I've had a mild fever and body aches and so, so tired.

I got mine yesterday (downtown) through registering at Rexall. I registered at several Rexall stores as soon as the age limit announcement. Got an email with a link for dates last week.

One of the morons from Fox and Friends has blamed the Sussexes for his death

https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2021/03/12/976172586/little-difference-in-vaccine-hesitancy-among-white-and-black-americans-poll-find Interesting poll about vaccines in the US. There is a link in the article to the data (the poll was also Biden and congress), which has...

I think for sure when you are young, heading off to follow a job/career is great. When you are single and have no kids, it's not as risky. I went to Banff for 5 years after university and college, met my now-husband and got great, good paying job experience in my (at the time) field. But I...

One the strictest (maybe strictest?) forums I belonged to was Television Without Pity. They had a 5/5 rule. Before posting, either read the last 5 pages or last 5 days worth of posts, whichever made sense for the thread. I saw someone refer to the moderation there as 'fascist', but I found it...

I've always received a slip when getting the flu shot. At Shoppers, it's about the size of 3x5 card, if I recall correctly.
