Case origins timeline
Cases per capita timeline with Halifax emphasized
Comparison of Halifax outbreak wind-down to the worst outbreak in each health region in the country (scaled peak-to-peak)

Vaccine Roll-Out Metrics
1st graph shows how many days since each province had enough doses to cover their current usage.
2nd graph shows percent of eligible population that is newly vaccinated each day
3rd graph shows days ahead/behind versus national average
This animation shows each province's vaccination pace as a percent of the pace they need to each 80% first dose coverage by the end of June (based on how many they have already vaccinated and how much time is left).
Older data becomes less visible over time.
Here is the current percent of the eligible population of each province covered by at least one vaccine dose (Territories shown in the 2nd graph).
Graph shows actual first dose coverage (blue) compared to a charitable maximum (green) that accounts for previously given 2nd doses and gives a 5-day grace period on deliveries.
Provinces are sorted from smallest (good) to largest (bad) gap between actual/potential coverage.
Nightly quick look at how the rest of the country is doing.
That's it for tonight's update.
Take care of one another and have a great rest of the weekend.
