While we're on subject of ICU reporting in Ontario
Contrast 9,096 COVID critical illness ICU (CRCI) admissions reported to Oct 31, 2021 in @COVIDSciOntario report to 5,993 CRCI admissions to Oct 31, 2021 reported publicly.
No reason to bring this discrepancy up again, right?

And here are estimates of provincial ICU under-reporting for fall 2020, at least those for which I could do estimates.
Remember this. Watch Quebec for numbers. They will be fast and complete. Assume what is happening in QC is happening where you live.

Also, for those who will respond that QC has an older pop with lots of people in LTC.
You know who doesn't end up in ICU? People 80+. They're not candidates because many can't survive ICU, even w/out COVID, and many have DNRs.
ICU COVID is primarily people in 40s to early 70s.

I've known about ON ICU reporting discrepancy since SciTable report came out. I pointed it out briefly. Then, hoping that it might light some fires somewhere I politely stopped commenting, to give decision makers time to correct w/out embarrassment.
Here's Jan 2/22 update: 6,436

For comment, it would be best to reach authors of SciTable report, who have access to cumulative numbers I and others can't access. I'm just someone who watches how Canada reports severe COVID-19 outcomes, using publicly available data.
