The Canadian Government Should be Telling Canadians to Wear Respirators.
But folks are complaining about much simpler easy-to-wear masks. What’s the matter?
It shows. Canada is being devastated by a 0.3 micron pathogen.
Only Asians are wearing respirators. In South Korea, Taiwan, China, Singapore, life is back to near normal. Why are they smarter?
In an environment like a clinic or a hospital, medical practitioners, at times when the environment is known to be hazardous, like now, protect their respiratory systems. Mankind has known that for a hundred years and more.
Respirator masks are worn within potentially infectious environments. Today, that includes all of Earth. Did you know that? SARS2 is in the air.
Honestly, you guys are crazy to let this happen. Government did not do this sh*t. You hosers did this. Source: Civil Society Partners for Global Solidarity against COVID-19 Pandemic tracking team.

Climate change has an impact on every living thing. The air is bad and that is essentially why there is climate change. The air is full of toxins so thick the air has been forming a greenhouse layered covering over the Earth. Lately, close to the ground, as far as we know, it has been carrying aerosolized microbial particles that are viable virus—some very nasty pathogens.
In my visits to most large Asian and European cities, over the past ten years, I wear an N95 mask of one type or another, sometimes, but rarely with a cloth mask cover if I am traveling and not carrying many masks. The cloth covering means less cleaning challenges of something like a 3M 1810. I clean them with sunlight for a day or more. Heat is an alternative. Alcohol kills the functioning of the mask.
Around a clinic, going out and about, meeting patients, I wear a stronger mask. People expect that frontline workers are carriers of horrible things. I make sure our people don’t emit anything harmful and that they look like they cannot emit anything harmful.
In the picture below, I am wearing what is required by law in the city where I am currently attending. Without the mask and face shield, I would not be allowed to go into even a 7-11 or a grocery store, or even a gasoline station.
I am glad of that rule because everyone I see, could be sick.

Medical practitioners understand the extreme risk of a severe acute respiratory syndrome infection and protect themselves accordingly in that environment. Rather than breathe particles of ferociously pathogenic viruses they wear respirators which are the same as a 3M 1910 mask used for grinding metal, or using a skill saw or table saw for sawing wood, or even painting. The medical variant of that mask is the 1810. It’s worth about $1.50 Cdn retail and if cared for can be worn many times although the medical equipment industry prefers the item be a throw-away. Honestly, few practitioners are doing that these days. ( The CDC says, “once personal protective equipment (PPE) supplies and availability return to normal, healthcare facilities should promptly resume conventional practices.”)
Criminals have hoarded respirators (not spit barrier surgical coverings) and try to price gouge.
Our suppliers claim they have encountered known government officials in the United States, buying up millions of masks or mask delivery positions in order to resell them and make a large profit.

I am not a medical practitioner, I am a medical administrator, an operations boss, and have been for years. I visit all the bad places in a hospital or clinic, in a refugee camp, or in prisons. I wear the best respirators available.
The last ten years have taught me that mask wearing in infectious areas, to be essential, hence it is a surprise to me that many Canadians would venture into a screaming crowd without a mask. Don’t. You could die. I have met many people who died that way. Many people.
Genuine NIOSK N95 respirator masks are 95% effective at preventing the SARS-CoV-2 virus from having a start at wrecking one’s body.
Arguably SARS-CoV-2 is not just a respiratory disease but a disease that starts in the respiratory system. Regardless, a proper respirator is more effective than a vaccine although once vaccinated, people will be required to wear a mask regardless of the vaccination.
We still do not know if after being vaccinated, a person can become infectious. The virus can be present without causing havoc. Vaccinations do not necessarily kill viruses, they typically bolster the body such that the virus is denied access to the body’s cells.
Bats have managed to host inactive but viable coronaviruses for centuries.
SARS2 will raid any cells in a human body that have the ACE2 receptor. That’s a cell that comprises many organs, not just lungs.
Hence SARS2 is not just a respiratory virus. And it is indeed a killer, not that killing is its mission, it isn’t, it’s just a clumsy and dangerous parasitic pathogen that has been around for likely a million plus years, like bats and pangolins.
So the best way to keep SAS2 out of a human body is to deny it access to the respiratory system. Hopefully that clears up some of the bilge disinformation that is being ranted in the streets.
Visit Health Canada to learn how the government doctors want you to protect your respiratory system. It’s all good but it could be better. If those doctors were responsible for greeting and treating patients at the urgent care sally port, they might feel a little more urgency. I wonder if government people do know how to feel. I can see some that do, like this fellow Joe Biden, but I think most don’t. I think we must each take care of ourselves now and that means wearing a mask, isolating from other people, cleaning our hands regularly, and maintaining a safe environment for ourselves and our family–staying home and staying healthy, for now. In specific terms, here is what Health Canada says.
“How COVID-19 spreads
“COVID-19 spreads from an infected person to others through respiratory droplets and aerosols [yes the virus is in the air] created when an infected person coughs, sneezes, sings, shouts, or talks. The droplets vary in size from large droplets that fall to the ground rapidly (within seconds or minutes) near the infected person, to smaller droplets, sometimes called aerosols, which linger in the air under some circumstances.
“The relative infectiousness of droplets of different sizes is not clear. Infectious droplets or aerosols may come into direct contact with the mucous membranes of another person’s nose, mouth or eyes, or they may be inhaled into their nose, mouth, airways and lungs. The virus may also spread when a person touches another person (i.e., a handshake) or a surface or an object (also referred to as a fomite) that has the virus on it, and then touches their mouth, nose or eyes with unwashed hands.” (Citing Health Canada)
Civil disobedience (i.e.: assembly in groups greater than ten) in the form of unmasked close gatherings in the thousands is not the way ahead. Actually it can get you dead. It will get some of the people dead.
These demonstrations that are moving, all the people wearing masks, have a lower risk factor. Yes, some people will die and many infected unless the entire crowd is wearing NIOSH N99s. That’s not likely.
What’s worse is a standing crowd listening to some jackass giving a speech with a megaphone and everyone yelling along with the speaker.
I want those people charged with criminal negligence. How dare they endanger frontliners by sending a whack of patients into the emergency ward?
The ignorant people standing around listening are just that, ignorant inasmuch as nobody told them what they are doing is dangerous to themselves, their families and their acquaintances.
There are many people in Canada who do not read newspapers and don’t listen to radio and TV. That makes the ‘pied piper’ even more exploitive and immoral.
The rest of the crowd is not very intelligent according to statistics. Many are defined in various statutes intended to protect populations, as, “credulous”. They will believe almost anything if presented in a certain way.
Maskless in Calgary. THrongs of people gather, yelling and screaming about everything. SUPDERSPREADER?

This is a further condemnation of the fool with the bullhorn. Anyone truly serious about changing laws, brings their case to a courtroom. Most of these hot-air people have serious personality disorders that cause them to demand attention by any means, no matter the cost. That’s another statistic that goes back over a century.
A small percentage of all the people participating in open-air demonstrations without a mask will become infected and die.
Statistically, each person will infect one to five more persons and they will infect one to five persons. There is tons of data to support that.
The irony is that there is no gain. The same money that these large demonstrations cost could bring a court action against a law, and would be many times more likely to cause a change.
Why take the death risk? If a law is a bad law, in violation of the Canadian Constitution, and there certainly are some that likely do that violation, then they should be summoned or changed. That’s what the courts can do. That is what they are for.
But putting lives at risk is immoral and criminally negligent. It is not worth 15 years in prison, which is what may happen to some people who have recklessly caused deaths. Once the pandemic passes, arrests are expected.
Numerous investigators are gathering evidence now. There is no relevant limitation in the time an indictable offence can be brought in Canada. If a person incites people to commit a violation of any statutes and in doing so causes injury or death, they are criminally negligent in that injury or death.
A person does not need to be an organizer to be a candidate for a case. A couple heading out to an all day demonstration in Calgary, wearing no mask, that later infects their neighbours, and kills their grandpa and dad, has been criminally negligent.
Wearing a mask to avoid becoming infected or to avoid infecting others or both, is common sense during this pandemic. The government has the responsibility to mandate mask wearing under the circumstances and it is doubtful a court would disagree. Go ahead and try the case. But stay out of these criminally irresponsible huge maskless gatherings of people.
FPM.news is a publication of a partner in a large Civil Society organization tied to the United Nations and many centre-line organizations that work with all countries. Our publisher has a strong medical component. FPM.news writers strongly recommend that people wear genuine respirator masks. Why? Because we know that to be true. Not that it made a difference after that, but our lawyers also say it would be criminally negligent to cause a death by suggesting anything less than what we know is needed to protect a person’s respiratory system under the circumstances.

Finally a path to vaccine for Canadians. Canadians might start getting jabbed by April.
Canada is the second nation to adopt one the West’s vaccines.
Canada has approved the Pfizer Vaccine for Canadians according to a Health Canada announcement. Health Canada authorized the vaccine on Wednesday morning. The Pfizer/BioNTech, is the only vaccine approved in Canada.
“This is a critical milestone in our fight against COVID-19 and in our efforts to provide every Canadian with access to a vaccine,” said Dr. Supriya Sharma of Health Canada, on Wednesday.
“Canadians can have confidence in our rigorous review process, and that the vaccine was authorized only after a thorough assessment of the evidence demonstrated that it met health Canada’s strict standards for safety, efficacy, and quality, Dr. Sharma added.”

This graph below is going to happen and worse will follow unless infection mitigation efforts of the government are echoed in the behaviour of Canadians. Canadians are in big trouble of their own making. The domino effect of overwhelming hospitals with COVID-19 ‘s serious cases is unknown for routine and other emergency patients, but it will result in huge numbers of unpredictable fatalities.
