As of mid-afternoon today, 36,672 cases of Covid-19, aka the corona virus or "kung flu", had been recorded from sea to sea to sea. That's less than 1/10th of 1 percent (.001) of the population.
Of those infected, 12,502 have recovered and 1681 have died. The death toll is thus less than 5 percent of the number who have contracted the disease, and... let's see... carry the 5... roughly 1 (one) out of every 22,362 residents of Canuckistan.
Yet Canada's federal, provincial, and municipal governments of every stripe from deep red to mauve (there are no true-blue conservatives) are telling everybody to stay at home until the "crisis" is over. If I were Canadian, with odds of 22,362 to 1 against getting infected by making a quick trip to the beer store to pick up a square, I'd take my chances.
