No, sir. In Ontario any exposure or symptoms and you're required to isolate for 5 days.
If you are fully vaccinated, have no symptoms, do not live with the positive case and are otherwise healthy
  • self-monitor for symptoms for 10 days after your last exposure
  • wear a mask, practise physical distancing, and follow all other public health measures if leaving home
  • do not visit any high-risk settings or people who may be at higher risk of illness (such as seniors) for 10 days after your last exposure

Ignoring that you guys are sticking with guidelines despite continued changes in societal risk, surely they could run a same day PCR on the prime minister to avoid this. Seems like grandstanding and then makes me wonder if it even happened
Not PCR unless you work in Healthcare or long term care.

Don't know what to tell you. Maybe it's a local guideline rather than provincial.

LOL why should anyone give a runny shit about the opinions of a guy who legally defended himself with "I'm just a bullshit artist entertainer".

not in a statistically-meaningful way.

From the article:

The researchers, whose work is regarded as the most comprehensive yet, say their findings in no way diminish the dreadful impact Old World diseases had on the people of the New World. But it suggests that the New World was hardly a healthful Eden.
I didn't know that natives were suffering poor health anyway, so cheers for that info, but your article doesn't contradict my point that these viruses are more deadly to people who haven't built some level of immunity through previous exposure.

We know that's what's happening with SARS-COV-2. Previous infections built an immune response. When everyone has had exposure, either through infection or vaccination, the effects will reduce, as we're seeing. Main symptoms used to be temperature, persistent cough, loss of taste/smell. Those are still symptoms but are replaced at the top of the list by sore throat and runny nose.

All that said, it doesn't help the guy who won't get vaccinated to get a new heart. If he refuses to get vaccinated, his first exposure is unlikely to be a common cold.

I did some background checking, yeah, that motherfuckers doesn't need to isolate at all, unless.........



He isn't actually vaccinated.
