1) As Most Quebecers prepare to return to work and school in 2 weeks' time, it’s worth revisiting the #COVID10 #pandemic in the province. In this thread, I will compare this point in time with the same periods in the last two years. Unfortunately, the comparison is not favorable.
2) This is not to suggest that Quebec will be crashing into an apocalyptic 8th wave this fall, but simply to underscore that the #pandemic is still with us, still churning out new virus variants, still hospitalizing people and still killing Quebecers amid stalled vaccination.
3) On Aug. 19, Quebec declared 999 new #COVID cases; a total of 1,997 hospitalizations (down by 14 from the day before); a dozen new fatalities, raising the death toll to 16,207. ICU stays were up by two, increasing the tally to 47. 
Die #Corona-Zahlen am Frauentag zeigen deutlich zunehmende Infektionen, eine sprunghaft angestiegene Totenzahl, leicht steigende #Hospitalisierungsrate und einen Rekord bei der Positivrate der PCR-Test. Details im folgenden Thread. (1/x)
Der Tageswert von 156.799 neu registrierten #Corona-Infektionen lässt den 7-Tage-Mittelwert um fast 5.000 auf 165.571 steigen. Das ist der höchste absolute Anstieg seit 4.2. (2/x)
Der reale Wert dder #Corona-Infektionen dürfte noch höher sein. Der Laborverband @ALMevTeam meldet heute eine Rekord-Positivrate von 51,6% bei den PCR-Tests der vergangenen Woche, trotz sinkender Testzahlen. Zusammen deutet das auf eine wachsende Dunkelziffer hin. (3/x)
Ce matin, je vous propose un #thread sur le rapport sur le poids du #covid19 dans activité hospitalière en 2020 publié par l'ATIH, fin octobre 2021. C'est très éclairant et instructif. Des faits et rien que des faits. ⤵️ 1/n
Tout d'abord, l'ATIH est l'agence technique de l'information sur les hospitalisations. Créée en 2000, c'est un EPA basé à Lyon sous l'égide du ministère de la Santé. Elle réalise des rapports sur l'#hôpital en France. C'est une source sérieuse et fiable. 2/n
Sur le site, vous pouvez accéder #ScanCovid qui est une visualisation des données hospitalières sur l'impact du #covid19. Ça vous changera des données de la DREES et de Guillaume Rozier et en plus, c'est complet. 3/n

Our new trend chart shows cumulative #COVID19 mortality rates for kids 0-17 years.
The sharp ⬆️ in August was driven by 30 non-white deaths
(vs. 10 white deaths).
Death rate 2.5x ⬆️ in non-whites.

Le seuil des 2000 patients hospitalisés en soins critiques est de nouveau dépassé, pour la première fois depuis le 14 juin. Cela reste trois fois moins que lors du précédent pic, fin avril. #Covid19

185 admissions en soins critiques sont recensées chaque jour (en moyenne glissante).
⚠️Il semble y avoir eu de gros rattrapages en Martinique, avec 73 admissions déclarées en 24h versus moins de 10 chacun des jours précédents. 🤷♂️

ℹ️D'ailleurs, cela se répercute aussi sur le nombre de patients hospitalisés à date en soins critiques en Martinique, passé de 57 à 122 en 24h. Rappelons que ces données en open data sont (malheureusement) par date de déclaration, et non par date de survenue.

This is a plot of the daily reported #COVID19 (c)ases (light blue), (h)ospitalizations (light orange), and (f)atalities (light red) in #Switzerland. In addition, I plotted the cumulative numbers added up over 14 days for (c) and (f) and over 22 days for (h), corresp. dark colors.
What do we learn from the data? The second #COVID19 wave in #Switzerland has reached levels in all indicators (c,h,f) (somewhat) larger than the first wave. The peak daily reported (c)ases are a factor 8.5 times higher than in the first wave.
The peak reported (f)atalities and (h)ospitalizations per day are 1.5 and 1.25 times higher than in the first wave. Both likely have not reached their maximum yet. Also (h) data comes in with a delay of up to 7 days from the current date, while for (c) and (f) it is ~3 days.
Siguiendo ejemplo de @Sefini, en 🧵 señalo varias estrategias de comunicación científica y de salud que se deberían implementar en #PuertoRico en particular para promover la prevención y disminución de riesgo de contagio de #COVID19 #ComunicaCiencia cc @wandavazquezg @DeptSaludPR
1) 57% de los brotes registrados por @SMICRCPR provienen de reuniones familiares. Hay una necesidad imperativa de darle a nuestra gente alternativas de comportamiento para convivir con el virus.
La ampliación de canales (FM + apps + web + altavoces inteligentes) y fórmulas financiación (suscripción, aportación de emisoras, donaciones) han multiplicado audiencias ¡e ingresos! de #radio pública @NPR, admirable ejemplo de transformación #digital

The smoking gun of govt care home policy?
Govt advice from 2 April.
“Some of these patients may have #COVOD19. All can be cared for in care homes.”

What’s almost as shocking as this document is the fact that it’s been in the public domain for 6 weeks & no journalist has looked at it.
The same happened with PM’s #GreenwichSpeech from 2 Feb which I posted a month ago. assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/upl…

From the @ChiUrbanLeague report, Exposure Risk Factor #1: Employment and Occupational Conditions:
From the @ChiUrbanLeague report, Exposure Risk Factor #2: Housing:
Today we announced that @TheJusticeDept and @HHSGov partnered to distribute more than half a million medical supplies confiscated from price gougers to those on the frontline of the #COVID10 response in New York and New Jersey—including approximately 192,000 N95 respirator masks.
The @FBI discovered the supplies during an enforcement operation by DOJ's COVID-19 Hoarding and Price Gouging Task Force on March 30 and alerted HHS. We used our authority under Defense Production Act to order that the supplies be immediately furnished to the US.
In addition to the N95 respirator masks, the supplies found included 598,000 medical grade gloves and 130,000 surgical masks, procedure masks, N100 masks, surgical gowns, disinfectant towels, particulate filters, bottles of hand sanitizer, and bottles of spray disinfectant.
A few thoughts on things we don't know:
Federal modelling on how many Canadians could die due to COVID-19. Some provinces & other countries have released theirs (or press found out and published them). Not clear on why govt hasn't yet released this. #cdnpoli #coronavirus #COVID10

Thing #2 we don't know but may get a slightly better sense of later today: what kind of debt projection we will be seeing? The US one released is staggering. Many countries are in the same boat.
Today the PM said the wage subsidy is the biggest economic program in our history

Thing #3: is there & how big is the gap btw what front line responders need for PPE and what we have now and anticipate receiving soon? Govt says there is enough but frontline workers say PPE rationed. Why is there this dissonance? How much PPE do we have? How long will it last?
#COVID19 Hoy voy a hablar sobre la utilidad de las mascarillas y por qué pienso que TODOS deberíamos llevarlas en el caso de tener que salir de casa (siempre siguiendo las normas) a pesar de lo que se nos diga.
#COVID19 Digo TODOS porque sigue habiendo un número alto de contagios, por lo que tomar precauciones extra no hace daño. Lo que voy a describir en el hilo es aplicable a personas de la calle (el personal sanitario está expuesto a otro tipo de riesgos y debe adoptar otras medidas)
#COVID19 Como hay escasez extrema de mascarillas, también voy a hablar de soluciones al alcance de todos que FUNCIONAN (otra vez, a pesar de lo que nos digan).

#COVID10 QUESTION: How is public safety staffing and response times likely to be impacted due to exposures to #COVID19? We asked @fred_burton VP of Intelligence @Stratfor , who at one point was a volunteer member of the @BCCRS. Follow this thread for the answer.
ANSWER: "Fire departments have minimum staffing requirements for engine and ladder companies. As firefighters and paramedics go into lock down, there are only so many fixed assets that you have available.
In the D.C. area, there are robust mutual aid plans and federal firefighters, but that's somewhat unique as you look around the country. The nature of the work also demands close proximity to each other.
