- Positive tests, last 10 days: ON 2.6%, QC 18.7%
A huge, huge difference as discussed
- % of total cases recovered: ON 74%, QC 25%
How can this be? Is QC not tracking (or retesting) recovered patients?
- % of total cases deceased: ON 8.1%, QC 7.8%
This makes sense, both have suffered from LTC outbreaks
- % of hospitalized cases in ICU: ON 19%, QC 10%
Is QC ICU maxed out? Or why are there so many fewer ICU cases?
Quebec's ICU capacity was well below that of Ontario (pre-covid), iirc. I would have thought that their ICUs, especially on the Island, have been under considerable stress.
