1/6 #COVID19 key concerns in 🇨🇦: Today #GOC released modelling #s that attempt to show how the epidemic might unfold over the coming months, based on our knowledge of how the virus behaves & the potential impact of #publichealth measures.
2/6 Models are not crystal balls & we can’t predict the future with them, however, they do help us to plan and they tell us that our collective actions can have a direct and significant impact on the epidemic trajectory. #COVID19 #TogetherApart
3/6 While the numbers may seem stark, 🇨🇦’s modelling demonstrates that we still have an opportunity to control the epidemic & save lives. We cannot prevent every death, but we must prevent all the deaths we can. #COVID19 #TogetherApart bit.ly/2wpzsCu
4/6 Canadians play a role in what the future will hold for our #COVID19 trajectory. The action we take together now to stop the spread of COVID-19 will reduce the severe impacts & buy us time for research, #innovation & course optimisation.
