Latest update from @OC_Transpo just before afternoon rush hour: 10 trains instead of 13 that are required to run the system. This morning 11 trains ran instead of 13 #OttawaLRT
@OC_Transpo 2. This means longer wait times (every 5 minutes instead of every 4 minutes) and more crowds on platforms and on trains.
@OC_Transpo City says they have demanded the consortium fix this problem and make the system more reliable #OttawaLRT

So if I understand this correctly...here's what I should do NOW as a parent: If my child has a headache or a runny nose...don't run and get a #COVID19 test like we were supposed to a few weeks ago...call the doctor.
Also...new today...my child clears these symptoms after 24 hours...they can return to school WITHOUT a negative #COVID19 test
Also...as my child clears the headache...or runny nose...the family now DOES NOT need to isolate as well?? Despite what we have been told for weeks...do I have this right? I have no idea who to ask...or how to confirm this for the @ctvottawa audience...
Breaking: tragedy growing in Almonte.
CTV Ottawa confirms there are now 10 residents dead at Almonte Country Haven that has seen an outbreak of #COVIDー19 more here ottawa.ctvnews.ca/10-covid-19-de…
This home has 82 residents. 20 confirmed positive for Covid with 6 swabs still waiting. 10 are now dead. It has spread in a devastating way. Unthinkable for families. These people are our most vulnerable citizens.
Families say employees are doing their best. The home is old. 4 residents to a room separated by curtains. And it is full. Isolating residents with #COVIDー19 is very challenging.
I believe Ottawa’s Medical Officer of Health @VeraEtches This is not hysteria. She’s trying to save the lives of vulnerable people. Do what she says. Nothing else matters now.
Italy, Spain and France all have universal health care. Thousands are dying. This is not the time to hide from numbers. It is coming.
This is not the flu. My parents. Your parents. And thousands of our fellow citizens need us to change our behaviour NOW.
