Maybe they should start publishing the names of those who stayed in Canada over the holidays. Shorter list.

FIL has terminal cancer and was admitted to hospital in SK mid December, he now has COVID and has been transferred to Regina. Caught it in the "rural" hospital.
Where has JT been? I havent heard this much radio silence from him since he was a drama teacher.
The talking heads were saying tonight that both JT and O'Toole stayed in Ottawa at their residences.
While that would be the smart move, I have little faith in any of the idiots ability to make a good decision that puts the public good in front of their own desires.
Buddy just told me his gf has COVID and is bad. Having massive shortness of breath, high fever and very weak. They think she caught it when she went to Tim’s for a dine in meal (Kitchener so wasn’t locked down at the time).
he also had it but fairly mild symptoms in comparison. He’s about 38 and she’s 30 and outside fairly healthy people.

After seeing how much vets want for an ultrasound, I am keeping my eyes open for an ultrasound machine, oxygen concentrator and ventilator that I can get functional and throw in the basement. I strongly dislike relying on other people (especially gov't wankers) for anything.

While you are looking for those . See if there is a used x-ray machine . You can have your mini hospital with google as your doctor .
X-ray machine is much more complicated and dangerous. If I used film, I would have to develop it, I haven't seen digital x-ray at anything remotely approaching affordable. I had a chance to get an X-ray generating tube long ago but chose not to. I know I would have been very tempted to do something cool but dumb with it and irradiated myself. Same reason I didn't pick up a five watt laser. High probability of hurting myself.
Funny you say that....my old doctor used google every time I went there with symptoms....she literally googled my symptoms.
Sadly that puts her ahead of many docs for diagnostics.
She was great. After 6 or so years under her care we are moving elsewhere as she just went on maternity again and the replacements are useless. Plus we have a new doc 5min from our house whereas her office was a pain to get to nowadays.
Years ago the hospital here gave residents palm pilots to look up differential diagnoses....the skill is sorting out the wheat from the chaff with symptoms and in interpretation of test results. A doctor friend told me the hardest part of being a medic as a career is getting to med school. After that it’s pretty straightforward.
It’s not only our politicians that are idiots.....at least there are consequences here.

I suggest you find a new doctor .
I did....focus...you’re getting left behind.
anyway....thought we were locked down? Wife is getting emails that Hand and Stone is open and taking appointments now...wtf.
Filling up the calendar for Jan 24 and forward? If they are open now, they probably got an exemption for massages as medically necessary vs personal care.
H&S is epic.
A few years back I bought a used concentrator for a friend in the USA IIRC $500 USD. Knowing how to use the equipment is the other part. I wouldn't want someone experimenting on shoving a pipe down my throat or whatever hole it's supposed to go down.
Youtube has numerous air pumps videos but putting the act together is the trick.
