Ontario covid-19 cases, deaths, and testing.

#COVID19Ontario
Weekly all-cause deaths and deaths with/from Covid-19 in Ontario, including % of deaths attributed to Covid-19.
Note: Covid-19 is often not a wholly distinct and separate cause of death as there are other medical conditions involved in many cases.

There are also cases in which it is not even a cause of death, but the individual had tested positive sometime prior to their death.

It's ok to change your mind about lockdowns.

Countries like Japan show that it's possible to combat a virus without compromising civil rights.

"Japan attracted world notice for neither imposing a lockdown nor obsessively testing asymptomatic people."

japantimes.co.jp/opinion/2021/0…
"COVID-19 accounted for only 0.3% of all deaths. There were seven times as many suicides and 40 times as many flu and pneumonia deaths."
"Japanese shouldn’t take Western criticism too seriously. The mainstream media has been on a mission to cheerlead the lockdown narrative."

Here we have the total number of deaths in Canada over the past five years. The most recent 12 months of data do not suggest a spike in deaths out of line with historical trends.

Thread:
Zooming out nationally over the past decade, we see that it's perfectly natural for deaths in one year to exceed deaths in the previous year.

***This does not necessarily = excess deaths.***

Look how often the blue growth line is above 0%.
So deaths are rising.

Is that due to population growth?

Population aging?

It's a bit of both, but not covid.

What do peanuts have to do with lockdowns?

Unintended consequences.

A thread:
Peanut allergies were rare among American children up until the mid-1990s, when only four out of a thousand children under the age of eight had such an allergy. But by 2008, the rate had more than tripled, to fourteen out of a thousand.
No one knew why kids were becoming more allergic to peanuts. But the response was natural and seemingly rational: kids are vulnerable so keep them away from peanuts, peanut products, and anything that has been in contact with nuts of any kind.
