RoW continue their upward trend, with no real sign that the trend will start to reverse.
Dr. Wang continues to blame the general population for our spike in cases. However, Professor Butt of the University of Waterloo has a good idea of what’s happen. He acknowledges that children are causing much of the spread, because they are less likely to be vaccinated (and quite often spreading to their household). Also, this is more common certain postal codes (N2C, for example) where there are higher population of low-income and immigrants. Many in this postal code have overcrowded homes, with many that struggle to understand public health directive (as outlined in The Record). Other high risk neighbourhoods include N2G and N2B.
In other news, which should be good: The region will have a new booking system launching on Monday. It would a good idea, if you haven’t heard back from the region regarding you vaccination, to rebook on Monday. Further to that, if you had your shot before May 30th, you can book your second shot this coming Wednesday. It’s also a good idea to spread the word to your friends and family, and perhaps post this information on the bulletin board at work, as it’s unlikely the region will inform its citizens of the changes.
