Covid-19 still presents a risk primarily to the elderly, not to children and hardly to working-age adults.
(n.b. Based on 2020 YTD data for Covid-19 - figures to be revised.)
The average age of a death by or with covid-19 is higher than life expectancy.
Deaths among those over 80 account for 69.5% of deaths by/with covid-19, but only 52.2% of all deaths (all causes) in 2018.
More deaths over 90 than under 80.
Ontario (population: 14,745,040):
Total deaths by/with covid-19: 3,737 (253 deaths per every million people in ON or 0.03%)
38.8% of Canadian population but 29.9% of Canada deaths by/with covid-19
Deaths in Ontario, 2016 - August 2020.
(n.b. Based on 2020 YTD data for Covid-19 - figures to be revised upward as needed.)
This is what 2020 might look like in Ontario month-to-month if: 1. All-cause deaths (excl. Covid-19) are in line with 2018-19 averages 2. All Covid-19 deaths are single-cause excess deaths
(n.b. Based on 2020 YTD data for Covid-19 - figures to be revised upward as needed.)
Ontario total deaths 2017-August 2020, including Covid-19. Recent 2020 data may be subject to revision.
Covid-19 has been a crisis in Ontario's long-term care (LTC) system vs. among the general public.
(n.b. Based on 2020 YTD data for Covid-19 - figures to be revised upward as needed.)

The two most important metrics to watch: deaths and ICU occupancy.
Ontario now reports:
- 207 in ICU (5.9% of max system capacity)
- 116 in ICU on a ventilator (4.1% of max system capacity)
Ontario now reports:
- 207 in ICU (5.9% of max system capacity)
- 116 in ICU on a ventilator (4.1% of max system capacity)
The number of hospitalizations linked to covid-19 in Ontario has generally not approached levels commonly observed for influenza and pneumonia, with even the April peak being comparable only to the summer lull.
Ontario now reports:
- 674 in hospital
- 207 in ICU
- 116 in ICU on a ventilator
As data on daily new hospitalizations is not publicly available, this is the average daily net change in hospitalizations (ICU and non-ICU).
A note on hospitalization data: This may include those who have had a positive test result after being hospitalized for a different reason.

Ontario Fall/Winter season: May be able to declare a peak when average week-over-week growth reaches zero.
