(Update) 9:54 a. m. Toronto will soon open a center for others with COVID-19 who are isolated at home, a service that the federal government says is open to other cities in the country.
Health Minister Patty Hajdu said Friday that the federal government is offering $13. 9 to Toronto Public Health, enough to run the 140-room isolation center that will open this weekend for the next 12 months.

Dr. Eileen de Villa, Toronto’s medical health officer, said the isolation center “is an essential part” of the city’s plan to deal with the most likely resurgence of the new coronavirus.
“It all comes down to this: many other people living under one roof and an inadequate area increase the threat of COVID-19 spreading in this home, meaning it can also spread in the community,” Villa said.

A separate imperial school study of more than 150,000 people in England estimated the number R at 1. 7 and found that the virus now doubles every seven to eight days.

As we entered, initially with concern, in a new decade, there is no doubt that Toronto 2030 will want much more low-wage staff to help run our hospitals, nursing homes, cafes and grocery stores, but increasingly to live here.
The answers, apparent and feasible, are to increase their wages and housing costs.

Friday 5:25 a. m. Thousands of refugees and migrants spent a third night outdoors on the Greek island of Lesbos after two consecutive nights of fires in the notoriously overcrowded Moria camp, which left them homeless.

Elements.
The Greek government said tuesday and Wednesday night fires occurred intentionally through some of the camp citizens angry by isolation orders issued to prevent the spread of coronavirus after 35 citizens became infected.

Friday 4:35 am The Un independent expert on poverty warns that the worst effects of the coronavirus pandemic on poverty are yet to come and that the actions taken by governments on others so far have been insufficient.
“The social security nets put in are full of holes,” said Olivier De Schutter, a Belgian lawyer appointed by the UN Human Rights Council as special rapporteur on excessive poverty and human rights.
“These existing measures are short-term, investment is inadequate and many other people will inevitably fall through the cracks,” Schutter said.
His message was addressed to the assembly of world leaders this month for the United Nations General Assembly and asked them to take more decisive steps to eliminate poverty and reduce inequality, according to a UN published on Friday.
De Schutter said the economic slowdown in the pandemic has been unprecedented in peacetime since the Great Depression of the 1930s.
He warned that another 176 million people around the world could fall into poverty, with $3. 20 a day as a benchmark for poverty.
Even though governments have promised help to social systems, the world’s poorest other people are excluded because they have neither virtual wisdom nor Internet access,” he said.

Friday 4:00 a. m. A doctor who worked with some of Calgary’s most vulnerable citizens to the COVID-19 pandemic is involved in homeless shelters possibly not having enough area to protect everyone once the bloodless weather arrives.
“Currently, at least in Calgary, and I think this is reflected in other parts of the province, there is simply not enough area for others to be much more than, at the height of winter, a few inches from the others,” said Dr. Richard Musto, a retired public fitness officer who volunteered for the pandemic.
Beds, cots and carpets should be spaced two metres aside if there is enough space, in accordance with Alberta government shelter guidelines.
But when detecting space constraints, the document says it is appropriate for others to sleep within a metre of another from head to toe when there is no epidemic.
Musto said the regulations meant they might have to struggle to move other people if cases arise.
“It’s very, very complicated to do and it can’t happen instantly,” he said.
“It’s better to anticipate that there will be more epidemics and make us now have room for that. “
Eight cases of COVID-19 were diagnosed at the Calgary Drop-In Center, one of the homeless shelters in North America, Wednesday night. Three have recovered, Alberta Health said.
On Friday at four o’clock in the morning, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau agreed to hold a virtual assembly of ministers on federal transfers of physical care to the provinces and territories.
Their agreement on a convention with prime ministers on Thursday came a day after Francois Legault of Quebec and Doug Ford of Ontario jointly called for a significant increase in Ottawa’s investment in controlling emerging physical care prices.
The federal government has already committed $19 billion to the provinces to deal with the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, adding about $10 billion for health-related expenses.
But Legault and Ford say cash is a unique move and argued that what the provinces want is a sustainable long-term investment to control the exorbitant prices of new technologies, medicines and an ageing population, as well as the current pandemic.
They did not put a value tag on their application, but stated that a significant increase in the annual move was needed.
The federal government will move approximately $42 billion to the provinces and territories for health care in the existing fiscal year under an agreement that provides an increase of at least 3%. a hundred years.
On Friday at four o’clock in the morning, Mike Charlebois describes karaoke as a way of life, a form of expression and a little laughter to escape, which he says is more than ever as the world deals with a fitness crisis.
“Whether you’re talented or not, you have a microphone, you have a stage, you have lighting artifacts projected on you, you’re a star for a moment, no matter who you are,” said Charlebois, a professional artist, host and organizer of karaoke events in the Montreal area.
These fleeting moments of looming celebrities seem to be coming to an end. On Thursday, a provincial agreement of bar owners reported that the Quebec government was preparing to ban karaoke after an outbreak at a Quebec City bar related to dozens of cases.
While the government did verify the news Thursday night, the province’s most sensible doctor, Horacio Arruda, said that the mix of the song spewing droplets, shared microphones and alcohol consumption made karaoke the ideal environment to transmit COVID -19.
But singers and bar owners who are unwilling to hide their microphones say that the activity can be and that all karaoke lovers are punished for the acts of some irresponsible.
“Karaoke is not the challenge. The challenge is the control of bars that do not respect the rules,” said the well-known Quebec artist whose call level is Billy Karaoke.
Thursday 8:24 p. m. The B. C. The provincial fitness officer says he foresees a situation in which the entire public school formula will have to be closed due to COVID-19.
Dr. Bonnie Henry said at a briefing Thursday that local epidemics may force individual schools or learning teams to prevent categories and isolate themselves, but that a system-wide shutdown would only occur in serious circumstances.
“That would mean we were on a desperate stage in many other facets of our network and that’s what we’re looking to avoid,” Henry said.
Henry made the comments when British Columbia reached a record COVID-19 case the same day schools were oversteak across the province.
