So here's why I'm concerned. We are seeing VOCs absolutely explode in ON, and at the same time the test positivity is going back up, so the cases are probably outpacing our testing strategies. 
So much of what was said in the ON press conference earlier this week made it clear the focus is on vaccines. That's awesome, I am very pro-vaccine. But here we are on Friday and folks in hot spots still don't know how or *if* they can get a vaccine. toronto.citynews.ca/2021/04/08/ont…
So this means that we can't be relying 100% on vaccines right now to solve this exploding VOC problem. To me this means:
-We need to seriously consider closing schools throughout ON
-We need to make it VERY EASY for folks to not come to work sick (#paidsickleave)
-We need to seriously consider closing schools throughout ON
-We need to make it VERY EASY for folks to not come to work sick (#paidsickleave)
I don't like this idea that 3rd or 4th waves are inevitable, because *we* are in the driver's seat. Supportive policies that can fill this vaccination gap are desperately needed.
