In addition to our nightly #COVID19 #Canada #OpenData, I wanted to highlight the incredible individual-level data released by @TOPublicHealth today.

Check out this thread by @EdTubb for some preliminary insights.

The first case in #Nunavut has come back negative after being tested at an accredited lab in Ontario. However, the case will remain a presumptive positive and thus remain in our dataset.

"We may never know for sure whether the individual had a barely detectable case of COVID-19," said Dr. Michael Patterson, Nunavut’s Chief Public Health Officer.
