Waterloo Region reported fifteen new cases for today (10.6% of the active cases) -- plus fifteen more for yesterday, bringing yesterday's total to 22. 101 new cases for the week (+21), averaging 12.9% of active cases. 142 active cases (+70 in the last seven days).
Do you have any idea why Waterloo region is consistently missreporting numbers? I mean, the numbers today will almost certainly be updated tomorrow...
This makes no sense though, unless they are literally incapable of performing addition and they are adding it up wrong every day, the numbers that come today should be counted for today, not yesterday.
Apparently their daily report is based on data from 5:30 PM the previous day, but recently they have often been getting additional cases reported later than that. I assume some human is collating the numbers at 5:30 PM, before going home, otherwise it should be easy to use the numbers as of midnight.
