The mayor of a remote village off British Columbia’s central coast says he’s living proof that someone has ignored the warnings of the province’s health authorities and brought the novel coronavirus to the secluded island.

I have no time for small town mayors complaining about tourists. Did it ever occur to this man that the virus may have been brought back to the community by a community member ?. I say we should ban small town people who have a hate on for "City Folk" from big city hospitals. See how they like being treated like an outcast in thei own province.

Wow does this doctor make so many points.
Book could be written just on what he stated. 20 chapters.
Oh great he thinks major new viruses are going to hit the world every few years.
Time to invest in sanitizer and mask companies.
He states the masks the general public uses in Korea plus hand washing and social distancing is the way to go !
He did touch on the med report that came from Australia about vet med to kill worms in animals as wishy washy ....( I commented the doctor on cbn did think it may be the wonder drug...in trial right now but in this vid this dr. says "no" ....hopefully he does not know a lot about results and he just wants us to be more patient till more studies are done on it )
But Canada has even low supply of masks for it's medical workers...so that's why we the public are not wearing them. Low supply...like sanitizer...toilet paper....
He states that Covid 19 is so so catchy.
He also states it is one of the most sly tricky viruses.
So just great.
He expects major new viruses to hit us every few yrs....
He has no idea if and when this Covid 19 slows or increases in the spread.

With that in mind should future air travel ....boat cruises ....start to be limited as a norm
If we just keep having planes fly all over when a new virus hits....it's spread already before action is taken.
Prevention and limit international flights all the time ...now of course it's being done but should be limited always. ( new viruses he says will be the norm )
Time to build a log cabin in the deep wilderness and take you chances being attacked by some large animal !!! Or wild human who comes across your path  :o

Trend topic has mutated....for the better....me thinks...look at the number of views.
Title of this trend has the word Covid 19 right?
So how off topic did this trend really go.
It has mainly talked on Covid 19.
This is a problem that yes affects sports fishing but also every thing we do.

rather than mutating the topic, I would prefer that a new thread was started for all these discussions and let this one be about fishing opportunities in these difficult times.

Canadian police are to begin visiting homes to enforce the government’s COVID-19 quarantine, the RCMP said on Friday, warning that “recklessly” failing to comply could result in a $1-million fine and three years in prison.

27 pages later ...
CohoJake  has a winning topic...keep it going...as soon as it just limits it to "fishing and Covid" it will stay on page 27 for a loooooong time.
Keep it on both...fishing and Covid and the latest on Covid ...page 28....page 29.. Page 30.... runaway posts....like the virus itself.
But ya do have a pt....well taken.
But this Covid is nothing we seen before ...new ..so ya this trend has broaden but still the core is Covid affecting fishing and our life.
Think it's ok.
Maybe CohoJake  can start a new topic: Will Covid 19 shut down fishing opportunities 2 ( please only keep comments on Covid as it affects sports fishing.)

Penalty powers by police...guy would have to sell their house to pay $1 million dollar fine.  :o

by far the most informative information i can find. i know its long and in a different language but people need to watch it. we need to hear more from doctors and less from politicians.

Just got back from the outside for some exercise.
Sooooo nice out there.
Science and logic points to a " higher power. "
Plus millions lawyers surgeons doctors dentists scientists nasa professors....higher learning are believers in God.
But Yes I've met very unwise pastors/Christians ...that make me shake my head.
This virus kills ...this virus does not care if it's a believer or a non believers.
The crazy pastors in some area passes rattle snakes...about...
Quoting some verse no deadly thing will harm you ( paraphrase )
Ya but lots of these pastors died too!
This pastor thinking he 's extra special is so unwise. Surprised he did not die in the ocean a long time ago....thinking he could walk on water...
Or why use the bridge...just walk across the canyon ...maybe he thinks he can fly.
Science says this virus has these characteristics ...so mr wise miss wise take caution.
The only thing he said right was he fears not death....ya he's in heaven right now so his unwise thinking did get him into heaven sooner...so he 's better off anyways.  ;D

Could not agree more. Met many unwise Christians. ( met many unwise non believers too  ;D)

That's why I keep my trust in God and not people or pastors. My faith is in GOD not people.

God gives us a brain ...1 plus 1 is 2. 
Virus is catchy infectious so masks distance wash/sanitize hands. Only a nutty pastor thinks like this guy.

99% of pastors have shut down their church etc???but these other 1% pastors have zero wisdom.
