Last Friday Dec 17 for comparison:

#COVID19Ontario:
Daily new cases vs. test % positivity in #Ontario
Line = 7 day moving average. #COVIDー19 #onhealth

A closer look from June 1

#Covid19Ontario daily cases vs. total current hospitalizations

[To show the correlation+delay between cases & hospitalizations & hopefully see if there is a wider gap for this wave *if* Omicron is less severe]

Here it is without the 1:1 adjustment

#Covid19Ontario daily cases vs. total current hospitalizations

#Covid19Ontario daily new cases vs. deaths

Vaccinations remain very effective against severe illness (including hospitalization, ICU, & death)

(1st wave not shown as cases were significantly under-reported due to limited testing criteria)
