We are definitely looking better than we were a few weeks ago though, but still not to the level we saw in the summer.
The provincial backlog for processing the tests is about 1.25 days -- is Waterloo Region worse than that? I thought our tests were being processed in te GTA.
The median delay from infection to symptoms is about five days. A small percentage are much longer than that, but then there are others that are much quicker. If there were a spike from Oktoberfest, we should have seen at least half of that by now.
