1/11 Yesterday I presented an update on the progress that Canadians have made to #FlattenTheCurve of #COVID19. We also looked at some of the short-term predictions from our real-data forecasting models. canada.ca/content/dam/ph…
2/11 The #COVID19 forecast for 🇨🇦 is looking better, though we are not entirely out of the woods yet. We must remain mindful that our projections are only as reliable as our actions. #PlankTheCurve #PhysicalDistancing #WashYourHands
3/11 If we maintain measures that keep the #COVID19 growth rate down and prevent outbreaks and potential rebound of spread, we stand the best chance of remaining on this favourable trajectory. #KeepItUp #PlankTheCurve
4/11 With the current promising signs of #COVID19 slowed growth, we are increasingly hearing of reopening plans but this won’t happen at the same time or in the same way everywhere across the country.
5/11 The epidemiological picture of #COVID19 in 🇨🇦, w\ slowed growth & bending of the epidemic curve is actually a composite of very different regional outbreaks/drivers of spread, so it depends on where you are.
6/11 Some areas of 🇨🇦 are seeing few or no recent #COVID19 cases & have started gradual social & economic reopening plans, while maintaining key public health practices, like #PhysicalDistancing & limited social gathering.
7/11 All areas of 🇨🇦 know that prevention practices are a vital part of reopening plans for workplaces, schools & businesses, like keeping 2m ↔ #PhysicalDistancing, when out or in the workplace & #handwashing, always. #COVID19
8/11 As well, other critical #publichealth capacity must be in place & maintained across Canada in order to ensure adequate testing to detect alerts and respond quickly to any new #COVID19 disease activity. #TestandTrace
9/11 Local/Provincial & Territorial level reopening plans are key to managing this next phase of #COVID19. Based on public health criteria, effective #publichealth measures are being balanced against potential negative consequences.
10/11 Measures will need to remain flexible & adaptable to alerts and signals. Although we will be living with #COVID19 for the foreseeable future, #StrongerTogether we can keep this virus at bay by remaining vigilant.
11/11 Our collective efforts have already slowed the growth of #COVID19, bent the curve and enabled our health system to cope throughout. These are no small feats and they tell us #WeWillGetThroughThis #CavaBienAller! #KeepItUp #LâchePasLaPatate
