There are nuances to publicly funded care for non-BC residents. If you visited the whistler care clinic (not a true hospital, but part of public Vancouver Coastal Health) with an unstable injury, they would treat regardless of ability to pay, or at least stabilize for transport to Vancouver somewhere. Going in with a sprain or requiring other non-emergency care would result in payment request up front.

The chain of command failed and the captain ended his career to save his sailors
Go fuck yourself

Ok, science-y types, of which I know there are a few, I have a question about what we know so far:
How do you catch the covfefe? I know that inhaling droplets is one way for certain. We also keep being told to wash our hands like crazy and not touch our faces, and that the virus can last for X amount of time on this surface or that surface. Got all that.
But I also recall reading (in the context of how safe delivery is) that they haven't documented any cases of transmission from a surface to a person, and that all the precautions we take when we bring in delivery of food or groceries or an amazon package are done in an abundance of caution. But the actual risk is very low there, because this is a virus that seems to be contracted by inhalation.
But people also continue to harp on the frequent hand washing and the no touching your face, which of course are good practices anyway, but wouldn't need to be strategy #1 in combating this virus if the above paragraph was true.

The best is when Americans show up to Canadian hospitals because they heard "healthcare is free there" - like they saved up their health issue until they got across the border. Then they are confused when they have to put down a credit card (unless it's life or death emergency which is a different story)

You either inhale the virus from the air, from coughing, sneezing, or just talking; or after someone does one of the above the virus winds up on a surface, you touch the surface, then touch close enough to your mouth or nose for the virus gets in. In theory. I don't believe anyone actually knows the actual risk of these kinds of transmission, how much of a dose of virus is needed to cause an infection. how much virus is transferred from hand to package to recipient to lungs, etc. Lot's of positive cases are in people with no known exposure to an infected individual so it is reasonable to assume that transfer via surfaces can occur and that protecting yourself from such exposure is reasonable. OTOH health care workers have been infected after using full PPE. It is a very transmissible virus and all precautions are reasonable. One thing I don't get, gloves. You put gloves on now the gloves are contaminated. You take the gloves off your hands are contaminated, you still have to wash. It's one thing to wear gloves in a controlled sterile environment like an OR or a semi-sterile environment like an ER, but I don't know how much good they do in a civilian environment where everything is potentially contaminated. I don't think groceries shelved by gloved hands are any safer than those shelved by washed hands. As soon as the hands are washed or gloved they are quickly contaminated again.

Chinese Rat Flu
I agree with OG cuz my observation is that people (ma and pa and cousin jack) aren’t doffing correctly. I can see gloves for people that work in grocery being helpful because the very frequent hand washing or alcohol sanitizer plus this use of the spray sanitizer can wreck your hands compared to wearing gloves.

Good info thanks. I mentioned coffee filter because he said readily available and disposable. And I’ve been out of paper towels for a month.
I’m making masks for myself for grocery trips made of cloth though. I read an article this morning comparing types of shirt materials but I lost track of it. Obv more layers the better. But I recall it said woven far superior to knit. Therefore tshirt isn’t the best an definitely not just one layer. I would think this would mean most buffs aren’t going to do a ton of good. Still way better than nothing imho.
Here’s an article for med people in an N95 crunch.

Tweed Roosevelt, grandson of the ship's namesake, Theodore Roosevelt, calls Captain Crozier a hero and says his grandfather would do, and did do, the exact same thing.
Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass. an Iraq war veteran and member of the House Armed Services Committee, said, "I learned on my first day in the Marines that having the courage to speak truth to power is grounds for respect not grounds for relief. This is far from the first time in the last several years that Congress is going to have a lot of questions for Navy leadership—on leadership."
And Joe Biden added, "Donald Trump's Acting Navy Secretary shot the messenger — a commanding officer who was faithful to both his national security mission and his duty to care for his sailors, and who rightly focused attention on a broader concern about how to maintain military readiness during this pandemic."
Sounds like the Captain has made a lot of powerful friends who are going to make sure he doesn't lose his career.

The professionals did the model. I was never involved in a model, but, at least this kind of model. Trump

So how is his CAREER over?? He didn't lose his job - or his rank - in the Navy, ergo, he still has his career. His "career" is not "Commanding Officer of an Aircraft Carrier" - thats just one of a long list of jobs the guy has performed in the Navy. His career is "Naval Officer" - whatever the specific job might be. Still intact.
Plus, this
