![](https://i0.wp.com/pennyforyourthoughts2.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image-19.png?resize=580%2C507&ssl=1)**For the next bit of this report my position was clarified**

![](https://i0.wp.com/pennyforyourthoughts2.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image-20.png?resize=580%2C465&ssl=1)[Next came a link to a National Post article and the excerpt below](https://nationalpost.com/health/sacrificed-in-the-name-of-covid-patients-tens-of-thousands-affected-by-surgery-cancellations)

> ***“Jim Mann recites the numbers without hesitation: he had 19 tests and seven meetings during a marathon week of screening at a Toronto hospital in March.***
> 
> 
> ***The reward at the end was nothing less than a new chance at life, a spot on the facility’s lung transplantation list as emphysema cuts his own lungs’ capacity by almost 75 per cent.***
> ***Then just days later, the University Health Network called to inform him everything was on hold. Mann knew he still had to wait for a matching organ from a deceased donor. But Ontario’s cancellation of “elective” surgeries to ready for a feared surge of COVID-19 patients meant nothing could be done for him until the restrictions were lifted.***

> ***“It’s very heartbreaking, to be honest,” says [Mann](https://ca.gofundme.com/f/jims-lung-transplant), a retired home-renovation salesman from Niagara Falls. “It’s definitely worrisome. I’m only 65 years old.”***
> ***He’s part of an overlooked fall-out from the pandemic lockdown — the thousands of Canadians whose treatments have been delayed for close to two months already and could be postponed for weeks more.***

> ***Almost 200,000 surgeries and other procedures, cancer screening tests and clinical trials of experimental medicines were shelved indefinitely as hospitals braced for a possible flood of COVID-19 patients. A deluge that never quite materialized.***
> ***Meanwhile, many hospitals have sat barely half-full.***

**That’s right as hospitals set nearly half empty- treatments were cancelled on a massive and dangerous scale.** **Who can forget the dancing doctors and nurses with all that free time..**

![](https://i0.wp.com/pennyforyourthoughts2.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image-21.png?resize=580%2C76&ssl=1)> ***But there is evidence of negative impacts nonetheless.***
> ***Modelling in Ontario [estimated the cancellation](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1T5I2VKuvVFD0FmFGItcH_ZX1XioH4vYU) of elective heart surgeries would result in more than 30 deaths by early May.***

![](https://i0.wp.com/pennyforyourthoughts2.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image-22.png?resize=580%2C325&ssl=1)![](https://i0.wp.com/pennyforyourthoughts2.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image-23.png?resize=580%2C269&ssl=1)**Just so it’s clear. No study was necessary. The obvious harm from the lockdowns on a massive scale was foreseeable. And preventable.**

**And the real covidiots, in the truest sense of the word “idiot” supported and continue to support this mass abuse of humanity.**

**Which is why the legacy of harm is completely unsurprising to me**
