Even before seeing Ben's comment at the top of the page, I had already written:
Sensible and safe is even better than brave. But brave helps.
Here in Canada, a number of provincial government ministers across the country have resigned this week after it was revealed that they had taken vacations out of the country over the holidays, in contravention of their own government guidelines. Most people in Canada have been told to not even visit people locally, never mind travel to other towns or countries. Lots of people still cheated, of course, though practically everyone I've spoken to was pretty compliant over the holidays.
Somehow, after having a surge several weeks ago, our numbers in Saskatchewan dropped back down and leveled off the past couple of weeks, but we may yet see more of a surge post-holidays. So far, though, not too bad. Still about half of Montana's daily numbers.
I saw an ICU doctor yesterday, and she told me that we're currently in good shape in terms of hospital resources, though another surge would change that quickly.
