I think there are way more people affected but we only focus on the people that have significant symptoms and/or are highly vulnerable.

I understand why but that will not stop the spread if asymptomatic people don't get tested and spread it further.

Verdun Hospital was hit with 35 cases including 5 doctors

As expected, huge spike today

 

[Milhouse40]

907 new cases today.....its jot going well
It's going to be long

 

[CrAzYNiNe]

Another big jump. The number of under investigation is steadily declining.

 

[llamateizer]

As expected, huge spike today

20% raise. so it's not that bad.

 

[Luigi Habs]

I don't know what to think of this.

On one hand, the number of cases is taking the Italy/Spain/NY route, but the number of people being hospitalized and the number of deaths is much less.

 

[HockeyAddict]

Happy to hear that they will be fining people who don't respect the gov't directives of no gathering w/t multiple people up to $6,000...

Maybe because the positive cases are mild or only 'suspected' because related to others that are confirmed positive? Maybe that's why.

much worse than yesterday

 

[MXD]

The 10.79% figure of yesterday wasn't sustainable, but.... 19.67% of new cases is not soooooo bad in the circumstances.
Lets just hope it doesn't go any higher than that from now on.
(And what's the sudden jump in recovered cases?)

what jurisdiction is that?

Well, we're having this kind of increase for the next 10 days.
Expect 20 k cases on April 12th. After that date, we need to stabilize the numbers after that.

Yup, that's exactly my prediction too. 20k cases on that exact date with 1,5k hospitalized.

 

[scrubadam]

Yesterday was an anomoly because of low tests results. We should of been more like 800 yesterday not 400.

% is still going down slightly. Its going to be a long 2 weeks but we need to keep the trend going down. Montreal we need to get our acts together here.

 

[HockeyAddict]

what jurisdiction is that?

Quebec

 

[llamateizer]

much worse than yesterday

Not really.

Yesterday we had 2153 cases (positive + negative)
last 8 days (between 5800 and 7800 cases/day)


and yesterday was one of the worst days since 26% of all cases for the day were tested positive.

Today 18%
last week 5-10%

 

[Karma Police]

You guys are reading wayyyy too much in the day to day numbers.

It takes at least a week maybe more to get the results from the test. So all the numbers coming in are from at least last week exposure. That means that every day we are in something bigger than what the number says

It also means that it takes time to see the decline that's happening with social distancing.

 

[llamateizer]

If we increase 15% of ICU cases daily, we're going to be full on april 14th.

 

[Phil Parent]

Remember, in Quebec, close contacts of known positive cases are assumed positive, hence the large numbers.

Also, something that comes to mind, knowing there's a delay between testing and results, maybe some of this large number comes from the Tosh community.

 

[Crusher117]

look at the positive guys. hospitalizations are still low. Second, the under investigation section keeps dropping and then we see tweets like this.



It shows that social distancing is working. And with 7000 calls to the police yesterday snitching on people. We are heading in the right direction.
