All this Ontario Shut down is FUCKING BULLSHIT. We're closed in Ottawa, here's the numbers from OttawaPublicHealth web site.
1 MILLION People live in Ottawa, 5427 confirmed cases (0.54%), Active: 816, Resolved: 4313 and overall 297 deaths (.0297%), 37 people in hospital. We've closed because less than half of 1 percent have tested positive and only 816 active in a city of 1 million? Restaurants and indoor eating shut down, gyms shut down Yet schools and all the big businesses (Walmart, Costco) are open. What are people suppose to do for money that work at the places closed? This is getting fucking stupid.
