'It was shocking because it came so quick': Patients and doctors cope as flu season ramps up
Packed emergency wards, filled with feverish, coughing people suffering from the flu. It is a scene being played out at hospitals across the country.
This flu season started a bit earlier than normal and is now moving into high gear, experts say.
That certainly seemed clear at Humber River Hospital in Toronto on Boxing Day.
"We saw 510 people come through our emergency room department and our after-hours kids clinic on that day," said Dr. Tasleem Nimjee, an ER physician at the hospital.
Have a question about the flu? Click here to ask your questions to CBC News' Carole MacNeil and Chief Public Health Officer of Canada Dr. Theresa Tam.
What may also be a bit unusual is the presence of both flu strains at the same time. Influenza A mainly affects older people, while influenza B typically targets children and youth. Normally, one strain wanes as the other peaks.
Every year, the flu kills an estimated 3,000 Canadians, often young children, the elderly and those with pre-existing medical conditions such as asthma.
So far, there have been nearly 12,500 confirmed cases of flu across Canada and 10 deaths.
In Manitoba, two families are reeling from the recent deaths of their loved ones. Joanne Ens, 24, died from a bacterial infection after battling the flu for several days, while Blaine Ruppenthal, 17, also died of complications from the flu.
It's that toll on the body exacted by the flu that worries doctors.
"The flu can complicate pre-existing heart disease, asthma, chronic lung disease, quite often it causes pneumonia and that's sort of its route of causation. It's what makes people really sick," said Dr. Mark Loeb, division director for infectious diseases at McMaster University in Hamilton.
Craig Chivers/CBC
In Ajax, Ont., about 50 kilometres east of Toronto, Wendy Wilson is recovering from a bout of pneumonia that left her with a cracked rib. It started with a sore throat and flu-like symptoms.
"I was afraid to walk fast or move too fast because it was like all of a sudden, I'd start coughing, and I'm feeling like I can't catch my breath," she said.
"It was shocking because it came so quick."
And those symptoms can sometimes worsen, Nimjee said.
"If somebody is really short of breath and not able to manage without assisted support, without oxygen or hydration or need antibiotics through an IV, those would be the people who would be admitted to hospital," she said.
Ascend the mountain
Yet experts say it's still too early to gauge the severity of this particular flu season. While doctors at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention point to ominous signs, such as widespread flu activity and hospitalizations, as indicators of a bad year, Canadian numbers, so far, don't bear that out.
"Based on data up to January 4, 2020, the Public Health Agency of Canada would not characterize the current flu season as severe at this time," officials told CBC News in an emailed response to questions.
Loeb agreed it's too early to tell. Typically, flu season runs from mid-November until April.
"Flu epidemics are like a mountain. It's like an ascension and then you reach a peak and then you descend. Now we're on the ascension of that mountain and we don't know exactly where it will peak."
However, doctors agree on one thing: get the flu shot.
Although this year's vaccine may not be a perfect match to the current strains, some protection is always better than none, according to Loeb.
"Sometimes prevention is harder for people to understand than treatment."

Gay Dictionary English
How to say gay in English
Below are the words of our English Gay Dictionary that we will expand in new editions. But first some information about the language and this dictionary.
English is an Indo-European language spoken by over 500 million people and is official in more than 80 countries and territories. The national varieties of English, as well as Polari slang or Cockney rhyming slang, create specific words from particular regions and others that travel from one place to another while retaining its meaning or exchanging it for another similar or radically different.
Most of the words are from the 19th and 20th centuries, but some date back to the 17th century, so you can find words that are no longer used, but all are useful to unravel how humanity has been linked to the homosexual behavior. There are also current expressions which, with time, we will expand.
The majority of the terms are originally created by straight people, so somehow expressed contempt and hostility that fear of homosexual behavior produced and continues producing, although in many cases the passage of time has been erased all that negativity and ended up being incorporated into normal speech and even into LGBT vocabulary.
Following the classification of Professor William A. Percy we can relate the terms and expressions of our English Gay Dictionary in 4 groups:
1) For gays with the active sexual role.
2) For gays with a passive sexual role.
3) For effeminate men. The patriarchal feminization, in addition to turning homosexual men into women, by a puerile but tenacious psycho-biological determinism, transfers the worst stereotyped characteristics of women to gay men for the simple fact of being.
4) For homosexuals who perform fellatio.
To which we have considered interesting add two more groups:
5) The jargon of the gay community, which often is extremely brutal and other rather funny.
6) The jargon of male prisons, that somehow shows the sexual plasticity of men.
The words and expressions of our English Gay Dictionary have been obtained from many different sources, but unlike many of these sources, which are copies from one another, each of the items has been analyzed, investigated, contrasted and expanded within the possibilities. During the making of this dictionary, we have met with the revealing, extensive and excellent work of William Percy, professor at the University of Massachusetts-Boston, that is collected in the magnificent and extensive Encyclopedia of homosexuality, not quoted as a source but rather as an approach.
Ace queen
great queen. 70s expression of the prison slang for who wears a more feminine look as possible, with shaved legs and plucked eyebrows, etc. This same phenomenon we have seen today, for example, in Latin America prisons, where the transformation of a gay man in a woman may suppose some protection and even survival. Modern prisons in the more developed countries, with vis-à vis-protocols, allow men to have sex with women. The question is whether, although undercover, homosexual behavior still roam freely or not in modern prisons.
Anal buckaneer
it is the first of our expressions with this meaning. Pirate, bandit, thief, rider, kicker… of ass. Although it is a term used in the 80s in gay bashing, Anal buckaneer refers to the active (top) role in sexual relations, that in some sense is masculine and virile, and is opposed, for example, to Ass boy (one man reduced to a single part of his body, the ass, made available to anyone who wants to fuck him), that in the same way serve to insult gays but would establish a different category, because a boy is less manly than a buccaneer or a bandit. Despite as faggot is the top as the bottom, insults let us read between the lines, that the classical systems of homosexual behavior, the teacher-pupil and master-slave, still in force today, so expressions for top gay are less derogatory than the expressions for bottoms.
Anal jabber
ass inyector, ass-kicker. Another expression of the 80 used in gay bashing, which also has the sense of top in anal intercourse.
Androgyne
scientific term used for effeminate homosexual in the early 20th century, when the scientific community got their knickers in a twist with sexual diversity. Currently the term androgynous has a related meaning, but totally different.
Arse bandit
expression originated in the UK to insult gays, also belonging to the collection of expressions for the "least bad" top gays.
Variations Ass bandit.
Ass boy
in this expression, used to insult gays and more specifically to bottoms, two important issues in gay slang come together. On the one hand we have the issue of youth, associated with the passive (bottom) role in sex inherited from Greek master-pupil system, and secondly the loss of masculinity or feminization also associated with the passive role, which it is produced by the reduction of the person to the only usefull, his ass, just as happens with women who are reduced to their pussy. This fact is reinforced with other related expressions such as Boy-Pussy or Gash, where the passive role in sex, femininity and female prostitution are related.
Ass pirate
expression used in the 90s in gay bashing, but referred to top ones.
Ass raider
expression used in the 80s in gay bashing, belonging to the set of insults to gays with active sexual role, which do not involve a loss of masculinity, unlike what happens to passive sexual role gays.

Catamite
Catamite is an archaic word that has the meaning of a young boy kept by an older man to have sex or, in general, a homosexual boy. It comes from the Latin catamītus, which comes from the Etruscan catamite, which in turn comes from the Greek Ganymede.
Astronomer Simon Marius suggested the name of Ganymede to the moon discovered by Galileo in 1610, inspired, funny the Simon, by mythical history. Ganymede and catamite share origin.
To find the meaning of this expression, we need to go to the story of Ganymede itself, the satellite of the planet Jupiter, the most beautiful of mortals, Trojan prince and, the ideal of male beauty who won Zeus/Jupiter love. The king of gods turned into an eagle, kidnapped him and gone to the Olympus to become his lover and the cupbearer of the gods (more or less)
And this androphilic mythological story about the most beautiful of mortals was soon corrupted as the word itself since, in ancient Rome, a catamītus was the young man desired and penetrated by men. And this happened in a historical context in which the Romans, men who had active/top sex with men, had transformed the Greek model of the homosexual relationship, the master-pupil, into the master-slave model. And who says slave, says kept or paid.
Therefore it is not strange that the word became, especially from the 16th century, with the re-discovery of the classics, in a suitable term to refer to those young people that because of their beauty, they were worthy of being loved by other men. And also giving them a more noble connotation than other words of the time, that had a more popular sense and often associated with prostitution. Although not for being the term cult and nobler, the catamites were more tolerated.
Finally, we must comment that Catamite is a slang that we find in countless languages with the same meaning, which indicates that the same happened in the whole world over.

paradigmatic expression used for appointing a homosexual man, especially for effeminate ones and also with passive (bottom) sexual role.
The key to understanding the large number of expressions for passive (bottom) or effeminate gays is the supposed reversal of gender and sex roles when someone takes, or seems to have, a behavior considered "natural" or "appropriate" for the opposite sex.
According to this Manichean scheme, a homosexual with passive (bottom) sexual role should be in some sense, a woman; even a man who is raped is considered to have lost their manhood and in fact becomes a woman. Many slang terms for passive homosexual personify directly as a vagina or anus (Gash, Boy-pussy, Bumboy); Another common procedure is to use a word that has female reference as is the use of a woman's name (Mary,Pansy, Marjery); or can be any of the large number of words commonly used for women (fem, bich, wife); or else a word that refers to the stereotypical female behavior (limp-wrist, flit, swish).

Q3 Portfolio Review: A Bottom For Clean Energy Developers?
By Tom Konrad | 10.9.13
In the third quarter, clean energy stocks in general continued their upward trend, turning in a 27 percent gain for the quarter and a 64 percent gain for the year as a whole, as measured by my benchmark and most broadly held clean energy ETF, Powershares Wilderhill Clean Energy (PBW.) This brings PBW back up to levels last seen in September 2011.
The broad market and my model portfolio of Ten Clean Energy Stocks for 2013 have also done well. My small cap benchmark (IWM) is up 10 percent for the quarter and 31 percent for the year, while my model portfolio is up 10 percent for the quarter and 21 percent for the year. I am disappointed, however, that my model portfolio now looks virtually certain to under-perform its sector benchmark for the first time since I started writing about in 2007, and the odds don't look good for beating the broad market, either.
While some of my under-performance can be attributed to my long-term avoidance of the solar sector and stocks which are household names (which has served me quite well over the last several years,) the poor performance of renewable energy developers and internationally listed companies (mostly in Canada) have also been a significant drag on the model portfolio.
Along with my model portfolio, I also included a list of six alternative picks of clean energy companies I liked, but which I did not include in the main list because I felt they were not as well valued as the others. I intended that readers who were uncomfortable with any of my top ten picks to substitute from this alternative list, instead. For instance, some of my picks are rather illiquid, and so larger investors would be unable to buy them without moving the share price too much. Similarly, readers who were not unwilling or unable to buy stocks which only trade internationally could put together a portfolio of nine U.S.-listed stocks.
The chart above shows what the effects of such substitutions would have been, and also shows the performance of the clean energy sub-sectors (Efficiency, Efficient and Alternative Transportation, and Renewable Energy Developers) that account for at least four stocks among the sixteen.
As you can see, readers who decided to only use the highly liquid stocks from the two portfolios (the "Liquid" portfolio) or the U.S.-Listed stocks (the "Domestic" portfolio) did somewhat better than those who decided to use my ten top picks. This is typical of the early stages of investor interest in a sector: The easy to buy and research stocks advance first and investors become familiar with a new (to them) sector. If investors' renewed interest in clean energy stocks persists, we can expect its effects to spread to less liquid, lesser known, and more esoteric parts of the sector.
You can't get much more esoteric than my collection of small and micro-cap Canadian renewable energy developers with listings on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX): Finavera Wind Energy (TSX-V:FVR, OTC:FNVRF), Alterra Power (TSX:AXY, OTC:MGMXF), US Geothermal (NYSE:HTM, TSX:GTH), and Ram Power Group (TSX:RPG, OTC RAMPF). This group declined an average of 22 percent for the year (including the effects of the declining Canadian dollar.) All have operations outside Canada, but only one (US Geothermal) also has has a U.S. listing, and has significantly outperformed the other three. The three TSX-listed developers were down an average of 34 percent for the year, although they were up 1 percent in the 3rd quarter, while US Geothermal is up 16 percent year-to-date, despite having been, in my opinion, less undervalued in January.
I think the enthusiasm for U.S.-listed clean energy stocks is largely driven by the resurgence of solar and other "story" stocks such as Tesla Motors (NASD:TSLA.) Investor enthusiasm for the Tesla story may also deserve credit for some of the strong performance (30 percent for the quarter, 53 percent for the year) of the transportation-related stocks in my portfolio (which does not include Tesla).
Developing a Bottom
I included the four developers in the lists because, at the start of the year, I felt they were all trading at significant discounts to what their assets would fetch on the open market. Most stark of these was Finavera, which had recently reached a deal to sell most of its wind farm developments to Pattern Energy Group (NASD:PEGI). Unfortunately, two of the four wind developments Finavera was planning on selling turned out to be nearly impossible to permit, and then and a few delays shrunk my C$0.80 valuation at the time to just C$0.22, about what the stock was selling for in January. At C$0.13 it's still a good value, but we're unlikely to make a profit on this one.
The news at the other three developers, US Geothermal, Ram Power, and Alterra Power, in contrast, has been better, yet only US Geothermal has advanced. All three have been producing power and positive cash flow, yet can't seem to catch investors' attention. Yet given the current valuations, they don't need investor attention to produce handsome returns from current prices. Including Pattern, there are a number of publicly traded renewable energy power producers would could buy US Geothermal or Ram Power outright and increase their cash flow per share. Given the exercise of Pattern's over-allotment option, the company has over $60 million it can use to purchase renewable energy companies projects.
At Pattern's current price of $23.29, it is trading at a forward dividend yield of 5.4 percent, at the low end of the 5 percent to 8 percent range of the five Canadian Power Producers discussed here. If US Geothermal's distributable income were valued on the same basis, it would be worth $0.66 per share for an 8 percent distributable income yield, based on management's projections for 2013 EBITDA and my interest estimates. Ram is in the process of remediating some of the wells at its San Jacinto-Tizate project, and this seems to be progressing well. When this is complete, the projects should be able to resume distributions to Ram. Hedge fund manager Keubiko valued Ram at $1 per share based on this one project in July.
Alterra is currently generating C$55 to C$60 million in annual EBITDA, and has debt service obligations of C$36 million for the next three years (after which they decline.) That leaves C$20 million of distributable income, or over 4 cents a share, which would lead to a value per share of C$0.54 at 8 percent, or C$0.86 at 5 percent, valuations which assign no value to the company's development projects and rapidly declining debt service in 2017 and beyond. Given the conservative nature of this valuation, I think C$0.86 is closest to Alterrra's true value, despite the fact that the stock is currently trading at C$0.30. Alterra would not need to be bought out to achieve this valuation, all it would need to do would be to start paying a dividend, and get a U.S. stock market listing (as Brookfield Renewable Energy Partners (NYSE:BEP)) recently did.
All three might reach higher valuations than I outlined above by continuing their strategies of developing projects and improving cash flows, but that would likely be a much longer term proposition.
With these developer stocks having stopped declining, and conservative valuations of their assets worth two to six times their current stock prices, I've been adding to my positions in Ram Power and Alterra. Potential buyers are multiplying as renewable energy power producers get access to cheap capital on the U.S. markets, meaning more money will be chasing a limited pool of assets. These under-priced TSX-listed developers should become increasingly attractive acquisition targets for the likes of Patten and Brookfield, which memorably bought Western Wind Energy earlier this year.
While such buyouts take time, an offer or two later this year could do a lot to bring my model portfolio's performance up closer to its benchmarks.
I plan to follow up with a discussion of recent news events affecting the rest of the stocks in my model portfolio soon.
