Also, Ontario seems to be trending up now, any sense on how that curve looks yet?
The Ontario numbers are a bit misleading, I think, because essentially each day they show nor the number of new cases but the change in the total number of cases. So any adjustments to prior data are shown for the current day. So, I prefer to use the regional data that actually shows the number of reported cases for each day. (Occasionally I need to go back and adjust my historical data when they make corrections.)
In this morning's regional update the last new cases were on Friday, none reported on Saturday or Sunday.
Ontario active cases have been trending up for a while now (see below). It's not a spike (yet?), but it's definitely the wrong direction. Peel and Ottawa are the biggest factors here.
