1. Sheep

2. I Call this Community.🙂

3. My wife is a healthcare worker and she's napping at 6-7pm everyday after a long day at work. Thank God we don't live in the area shown.

   Edit. I'm against this token gratitude. If people want to show support, find some more meaningful way. This movement shows the selfishness and narrow mindedness of those choosing to take part.

   Why selfishness? Because it's something easy that they do to make themselves feel better. People show their true colours, when they have to put themselves out there to show real support. My wife has a colleague who's a "front line health care worker". She wanted a massage but was turned down by the clinic.

4. This was cute for the first 2 months but can you all give it a rest now

5. I got a few people doing this near my house right now. Every single day at 7pm. These are honestly the worst most smell your own farts kind of pseudo-activist wastes of life i've ever encountered. Literally standing on their porch banging pots and pans like children and we don't even leave remotely near our hospital or any sort of clinic. How about you go volunteer at a hospital or donate some money to relief groups or just sit on your lazy a** and social distant until it dies down like the rest of us. Nope these infintile losers need everybody on the block to know "WE SUPOT DA NURSIS AN DOCKTERS EVWYBUDY". Same sort of human trash that did the ice bucket challange and then never thought about ALS again.

6. Mind numbing stupid and pointless displays of steeple. Monkey see, monkey do. These are the same people who run to light candles at every tragedy but never do anything substantive. This is about fitting into the herd and virtue signaling. Few of these lemmings have any idea the origin of this "ritual". Fewer still have even the slightest clue what its like to live under a regime like Pinochet's Chili or suffer anything resembling genuine oppression. The virus doesn't care if you bang your pots. It will not last a day longer or depart a day sooner no matter how many prehistoric rituals you do. These displays don't lend any tangible assistance to anyone. They don't deliver needed PPE to first responders, nor do they heal the sick. They have no tangible effect except to perhaps annoy your neighbors who aren't lucky enough to have hearing aids they can turn off. If these people put their pots away, put on a mask on in public, followed social distancing, and stayed home they would provide an infinitely greater tangible benefit by not becoming the next burden to the healthcare system or helping spread the virus to others. I see the same people every day. the same people who haven't exercised in 20 years but as soon as Covid hits, they are all suddenly avid walkers and runners. Not a single mask in sight and taking time, of course, to commiserate with everyone on the trail about what a great burden they are suffering. Then at 7pm, these refuges from the gulag archipelago emerge to bang their pots to display their brave resolve in the face of the barbaric oppression they are enduring.

7. we do this to at 7pm
   thank you front line workers

8. awesome

   Why are people and restaurants providing FOOD for the people who work at hospitals?
   
   Why do they need FOOD? Is there a FOOD shortage?
   
   Don't they have hospital cafeterias?
   
   Don't they make their own meals to take to work?
   
   Why is everyone always a stupid hero? Everyone gets a Trophy attitude is rather degrading.
   
   Healthcare workers are doing their job, how is that being a hero?
   
   Restaurateurs providing meals are not being a hero, it's about making money!
   
   Ridiculous mendacious.
   
   Hollywood Style Americans are always bragging about being heroes.
   
   Hollywood Style Americans like the government brag about each other, the healthcare workers brag about each other, the police brag about each other, firemen brag about each other, politicians brag about each other, and each group mentioned brags about the other groups.
   
   What hubris and self-centeredness.
   
   Meanwhile the majority of real people at home are more noble humble Americans self-imprisoning themselves.
   
   If you’re doing your job, you’re not a hero! Someone who does something outside of or beyond the duties of their job.
   
   Government is being itself; police are being themselves; healthcare workers are being themselves
   
   Yawl keep forgetting it's many government bio-warfare laboratories that have been producing and releasing different Corona Viruses since the 1990's.
   
   No single person of any so-called -authority are calling to have a real time verbal Prayer to Elohim.
   
   The only Hero in this flat world is Tetragrammaton יהוה!

11. nice

13. How about housing the homeless in the thausand of empty home all accross vancity. You people are in the state of emergency which allows you to do that. SPREAD THIS PEOPLE, LETS BRING THE HOUSE PRICES DOWNNNNNNNNNNNNN

14. Fake Vancouver.

    Vancouver, Washington is the first and only real Vancouver

15. I would hate to have to live in a building with a thousand other people in a time like this. Using the same stairwell, elevator, etc., you're at risk of catching the virus just by attempting to leave your residence. No thanks.

16. In Washington State tonight we’re doing it at 8:00pm…A Big Thank You To all the first responders healthcare workers volunteers …Can’t even imagine what you are going through ‼️ Bless You ALL 💜🙏🏽💜🙏🏽💜🙏🏽

20. Me and my town clapped at seven

    CANADA♥️♥️♥️

22. I think they’re calling for help

23. Anyone know the infection numbers in Vancouver?

24. Every evening at 7 PM everyone starts to applaud for health care workers. It's a nightly thing. Very cool and important because they understand just what health care workers are putting their safety on the line for. It's a very touching thing while keeping personal distance. We all should be doing what Vancouver BC is doing. Hats off to them. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

25. In turkey we clap and cheer loudly
