Just get the vaccine then everything will go back to normal just like before COVID.

Except we'll have vaccine passports.

Now that everything is slowly going back to "normal", we don't hear as much about those passports.

So on the 31st, if things trend as they are, most parts of Quebec that are in the red zone will be at worst in orange zone.

As planned. hopefully we'll have a beautiful weekend so that the terrasses get to be used before re-opening restaurants on Monday

there shouldn't be any surprises in this conference

- 346 new cases in Quebec.

- 6 deaths

- 9 less hospitalizations (415 total)

- 1 less in ICU (101 total)

Looking ahead... I'm wondering how we'll react to the next mini-spike in September/October. "Mini", because a vaccinated population won't see the same outbreaks as before; however, we'll always have flus – Covid and others – infecting non-vaccinated and a small % of vaccinated. Which Covid measures will become standard responses, which will fade away as numbers (hopefully) recede back to pre-Covid? Will we reach the point when our response to flu season is personal, rather than mandated?

I don't think we see full-scale lockdowns again anytime soon. I also expect a mini-wave of around 700-800 cases per day in autumn, but with next to no hospitalisations to show for it.

With the increase of supply of vaccine, they were able to jab 1M in 7 days in Ontario.

What we DO know that explains the similitude:

1. The virus is seasonal to a certain extent

What we DO know that should make the situation worse than it is now this year:
1. The transmission was almost exclusively in long-term care centers back in 2020.
2. There are variants making the whole thing more transmissible right now.

That speaks highly on the vaccines' efficiency that despite higher levels of transmission in the active population, and despite the variants out there, the R(t) is even lower than is was last year.

South shore Orange on the 31st. Montreal and Laval on the 7th.

What’s the difference between red and orange right now??? What will and won’t be open in Montreal. I legit can’t keep up.

The big change are gyms opening up and restaurant allowed to have client indoor.

 

[MJG]

Thanks!! I’ll take some time away from work later to try to figure it all out.

Oh hell naw...

If I had to get this new vaccine so do you...

 

[ECWHSWI]

well, what did you think ? for the passport to work it has to be discussed internationally, among world leaders so it works well, they have to come to a common solution, a common way of doing it. after COVID, each country will be so busy with their own shit they wont take time for this.

308 New cases
399 Hospitalization (-16)
101 ICU (NC)
58,764 Vaccines

New cases have been dropping quite drastically in the last few days/week... pretty exciting to think some level of normalcy is just around the corner.

The activity in this thread takes it cue from the daily totals

Posted it in the covid forum. It is really not surprising given how the Sputnik twitter account operate.

It's a travesty that MTL And Laval remains in red for longer.
All I can say is don't abuse.

Last weekend, I went to see my family outside gathering.
Parks were packed everywhere. It was safer to see them at private backyard
