The COVID-19 pandemic

[ac3r]

The province is expecting 1000 cases per day throughout October. Data is also showing that most new cases are in people under 40 (which are now starting to spill out to other demographics) and Tor Star ran a story today that suggests one issue may be that the province/health officials are doing a poor job at informing younger demographics in the right way. The solution? TikTok. Okay, obviously it will take more than some 10 second TikTok video memes to drill this into the heads of youth, but it does illustrate a point: young people are not likely to be tuning into daily press briefings about this stuff and that there are other ways to reiterate health advice to everyone, which is absolutely a necessity since this isn't going anywhere for a few more months.
