“We don’t know the seasonality of this virus, it has continued all summer, that’s for sure, but what if it shows some kind of acceleration under certain conditions?”
Canada is more prepared than when the pandemic first hit the country this spring, he said, but officials now predict the likelihood of simultaneous outbreaks of seasonal influenza, other respiratory diseases, and COVID-19 this fall and winter.
“We’re making plans beyond what we had for the last wave and I think it’s the wisest thing,” Tam said.

“The message is not that I do this, so that’s safe; the message is that everyone has to look at their unique scenario and make the decisions that are most productive are compatible with their scenario.
Here are some questions you can ask: Are your children at higher risk of getting a serious infection due to a fitness problem? Who are your young men going to get to? How does your school put the provincial plan into effect? »

11:23 A new survey indicates that the Canadian Atlantic is largely opposed to lifting restrictions on Canadians living outdoors in the region.
More than 3300 Atlantic Canadians participated in the online survey on narrative studies from August 5 to 9. The results, published Thursday, mean that more than three-quarters of respondents opposed eliminating the 14-day quarantine needs of the rest of Canada over the next month.

“It’s a moment of satisfaction,” Kozak said.
A survey of more than 1,400 employees conducted through the Workers’ Action Center in Toronto on their CERB reports provides a review of what this developing uncertainty looks like. For low-income people, the maximum non-unusual considerations are the inability to locate a task in the fall, IS eligibility, and the worry of surviving with IS, according to the survey.
“The incredible tension and concern of what was going to happen in her circle of family members because of the uncertainty is reflected in many comments,” said Mary Gellatly of Parkdale Community Legal Services, who helped analyze the survey responses.

5:51 a.m. The head of France’s national fitness service said Paris and Marseille have been declared spaces at coronavirus hazard while the government practices a strong buildup of infections.
Jéréme Salomon, speaking on France Inter radio, warned that “the stage is deteriorating from week to week” in the country. He says virus groups emerge every day as a result of a circle of family gatherings, big parties and other gatherings during the summer holidays.
A government decree issued friday by the government to impose stricter measures in the Regions of Paris and Marseille.
Solomon says there are “more and more people who have tested positive, more and more people arriving at hospitals. Array… we want to react before we count new deaths.”
The national fitness firm reported on Thursday 2669 new infections, bringing France’s infection rate to more than 30 others.
4:21 a.m. The number of coronavirus deaths in India has surpassed Britain’s fourth-highest record with some other record accumulated on a singles day on Friday.
According to the Ministry of Health, India has reported 1,007 deaths in the last 24 hours. Its total increased to 48,040 deaths, the United States, Brazil and Mexico.
Confirmed cases in India reached 2,461,190 with a one-day peak of 64,553 in the last 24 hours. More than 70% of inflamed in India have recovered.
The daily buildup of newly reported infections is around 15,000 in the first week of July, but increased to more than 50,000 in the first week of August. The ministry cited its testing efforts, with more than 800,000 tests in a non-married day, bringing the accumulated evidence to more than 26 million.
Health experts say it wants to be taller, given India’s population of 1.4 billion.
India’s two-month blockade imposed nationwide at the end of March kept infections low. But it has been smoothed and is now widely implemented in high-risk areas. The new cases increased after India reopened outlets and production and allowed thousands of migrant employees to return home from areas affected by coronavirus.
The subway and cinemas remain closed.
Thursday 10:15 p.m. Despite initial findings and statements to the contrary, it appears that young people are transmitting the coronavirus and playing a very important role in its spread, according to emerging studies and several experts who spoke with the Montreal Gazette this week, raising considerations on the possibility of opening schools. in three weeks.
But epidemiologists and pediatricians argue that the fitness hazards of keeping young people out of the classroom remain greater than the dangers associated with extraction, especially for young people themselves, who do not tend to have poor physical condition due to coronavirus. Experts admit, however, that it is imaginable that his return to school would possibly further fuel the expansion of the community.
While treating patients in the COVID-19 room of Ste-Justine Hospital, Dr. Fatima Kakkar, a clinical researcher on pediatric infectious diseases, discovered children’s ability to control infections.
“It is desirable for me to call a circle of relatives (to inform them of a positive COVID-19 test) and they are even surprised that the result has been positive, because the child already feels better,” he says. “But what is also appealing is that in this same circle of relatives, there can be a very ill-health father, who goes to the hospital, while the child is already healed.”
The virus affects young people differently, Kakkar said, which led to the considerations of young people who get COVID-19 at school and get seriously ill are greatly exaggerated.
COVID-19 so far has not killed any young people in Canada, he said; less than a hundred were hospitalized with the virus and fewer than 20 received intensive care. Compare that to last year’s flu season, he said, which recorded 15,000 cases among young people, two hundred of whom ended up in intensive care and seven died.
But while they don’t fall so much, the role young people play in spreading the virus raises new concerns. An article in the Medical Journal of Australia published online this week said that, contrary to the claims of some researchers, young people play a vital role in the spread of COVID-19.
“Research suggesting in a different way is hampered by a very extensive bias,” wrote the article’s author, Dr. Zo-Hyde. “In addition, giant groups have been reported in schools, with implications for controlling network transmission.”
Thursday 9:30 p.m. An outbreak of COVID-19 cases among Mennonite communities in southwest Ontario is causing public fitness teams in the region to combine paints to prevent the virus from spreading to the enclaves of farming families leading a faith-based way of life.
From Huron-Perth to Chatham-Kent and Windsor-Essex, public fitness officials have reported an increase in positive cases among Low German Mennonites communities in recent weeks.
Chatham-Kent’s most sensible public fitness physician said that “almost all of his cases” (84 are active on Friday) are members of the Mennonite community of lower Germany.
On Wednesday in Huron-Perth, 10 of the 74 cases in the region concerned Mennonites from Lower Germany, basically in the East Perth area, which includes Millbank and Milverton.
Thursday 8:30 p.m. Mexico has surpassed the share of the million that showed cases of coronavirus.
The Department of Health reported 7,371 new cases shown thursday, bringing the country’s pandemic total to 505,751. The branch reported 627 deaths through COVID-19, giving Mexico a total of 55,293.
Experts agree that due to Mexico’s incredibly low check rates, those numbers are underestimated and the actual numbers can be two to 3 times higher. With 1.15 million controls carried out to date in a country of approximately 130 million people, less than 1% of Mexicans have been controlled.
