At https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/coronavirustracker/ , look at its “ALL TIME” chart, and it makes sense.

Wow.

I don't look at positive tests. With the amount of testing now being done, that number doesn't mean as much as it used to. I look at hospitalizations. That number was up 21%, overall. That's pretty significant.

The question is why?

[George K]

Looking at the percentage of the population that's been vaccinated, it's probably easy to understand. I think the US is up to 25%.

Yes, but there are a lot of people (D2) who don't need hospitalization who are still sick as hell.

[Mik]

Yes, and they are simply listed as 'presumed recovered'. The long cases are not being tracked anywhere I have seen.

That happens, but it doesn't suck resources as much or overwhelm the medical system.

I was emailing with a friend in Ontario yesterday, and he was saying pretty much nobody was vaccinated where he was living (Peterborough)

Canadians have so much blood on their hands.
