If #COVID19 is really subsiding in severity & prevalence like so many believe, then please explain the curves:
Cases in Canada appear to be on a disappearing course (Note the grey area is subject to adjustment as other cases are added and the last several months are incomplete)

However, looking at deaths it looks like the same ole pandemic (the far end of the curve is highly inaccurate and incomplete ie, deaths will climb as more data arrives):
This leaves me with 🤦🏼♂️ thoughts:
- We are capturing fewer & fewer cases, even high risk cases, as time goes on.
- We are ignoring the deaths of the vulnerable who we know are:
- The elderly, chronically ill, immunocompromised, racial minorities, the impoverished
Have we given up?

Perhaps @JustinTrudeau @jyduclos @CPHO_Canada could provide a presser on:
- the status of the COVID19 pandemic
- the risks to the vulnerable
- recommendations of NACI for future vaccination
- Results of surveillance on vaccine efficacy among the 50+ group especially.

Hospitalization rates demonstrate Canada is still in a crisis whether we call it a pandemic or endemic #COVID19.
Pls explain why we have abandoned tools we know reduce community transmission?
- Masking, encouraging vaccine uptake in children, improving ventilation & filtration

@cafreeland How does this represent fiscally responsible governance?
Healthcare budgets will eventually balloon unless the Federal government ensures community based strategies to mitigate #COVID19 transmission are in place.
We don't put bandaids on arterial spray in the ER.

Where's the graph for #LongCovid @GovCanHealth
@CPHO_Canada @cafreeland
Perhaps it's time we start measuring the burden of chronic symptoms, the impact on unemployment and the workforce participation rate?
Is unemployment falling/low or are we just short on workers?

Appropriate segue.

End of February 2023, in Ontario:
< 5% of children (4.8%) age <5 have had a primary series of COVID19 vaccination; 8.6% have had 1 dose;
< 40% of children age 5-11 have had a primary series, <51% have had one dose
Where's #NACI @GovCanHealth
How many infections are too many?

Recent results of the BioNTech-Pfizer vaccine Phase 2-3 clinical in children ages 6 months - 2 years.
Safe and efficacious v. Omicron.
Do you recall the extensive media reporting on these results? Me neither.
Discuss with your paediatrician.
