It was the same for every province. The feds pushed down the testing and reporting criteria to be followed. This should really come as no surprise to anyone, except maybe those who have denied it. The rest of us have known since this started that the stats were overblown garbage. They were designed to instill fear and uncertainty while providing financial incentives to hospitals and the like to ensure their co-operation in keeping the counts high. Just my opinion.Oh.... so... no big deal?
FUREY: Ontario reveals deaths caused by COVID much lower than previously reported

Ontario death count includes people who didn't die of COVID-19, but exactly how many is unknown
The daily pandemic death counts in Ontario include people who have tested positive for COVID-19 but have not necessarily died from the virus.torontosun.com
This happened in many many countries. The fear porn was real. We'll see how it will be in the fall and if the war will be done by then so that everyone will be glued back to the tv screens and fear for their lives.It was the same for every province.

Joe Rogan says he tested positive for COVID-19, took unproven ivermectin
Public health agencies don't recommend the drug for treating COVID-19.www.cnet.com
A large study on the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin, which has gained popularity as an alternative therapy for Covid-19, found that the medicine didn’t help keep patients out of the hospital.
Scientists in Brazil who followed more than 1,300 patients assigned to take either the drug or a placebo for three days also found that ivermectin treatment didn’t help with a number of other health measures such as viral clearance after a week, speed of recovery or risk of death. The study results were published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The study, thanks to its breadth and detail, should help settle the debate on ivermectin’s role as a Covid treatment. The drug gained traction early in the pandemic, when doctors were looking to repurpose older medicines to help save patients. Smaller trials offered conflicting results. Even after the World Health Organization said last year there was only very low certainty evidence that ivermectin worked for Covid and advised against its use, some doctors continued prescribing the drug.
I do. This study uses mathematical models based off of outdated levels of expected vaccine effectiveness (ex. 80% effective against Delta infection), including hypothetical levels of protection against Omicron (the study is dated 14 Dec 2021). It even states that it does not account for real-world factors. It offers no real world evidence of its claims, despite there being enormous amounts of data collection across regions with varying levels of vaccination and differing public health restrictions from which we can compare.Do you have a legitimate critique of the study or are you just going to do snide sarcasm & ad hominem now?
workplace mandates,
Our whole family got it, starting by our middle child. Pretty severe fever (40+) for the middle and youngest child (that was worrisome). Almost nothing for the oldest but some lingering shortness of breath when playing sports that manifested after isolation was done. I had moderate flu symptoms and was out for two days. I am back to pre-COVID cardio workouts. My wife also had moderate flu symptoms but she has a lingering cough and some shortness of breath. It honestly wasn’t a fun three weeks.Tested positive twice yesterday... I am completely a-symptomatic ... Feel great... If this is sick, I will take it.
This is our families first exposure.

There was a BBC clip with that typical Brit smarmy reporter showing a gymnasium full of caskets and saying something to the effect that the coffins would be full by the end of the week.This happened in many many countries. The fear porn was real. We'll see how it will be in the fall and if the war will be done by then so that everyone will be glued back to the tv screens and fear for their lives.
The study did look at 40% and 60% vaccine effectiveness as well. It notes that identified trends still exists that unvaccinated increase the risk to vaccinated but that the degree is "attenuated as vaccines become less effective." As you lay out, people don't exist in a binary state of vaccinated or unvaccinated. It would be interesting to see another take on this model that mixed more than just two groups with differing levels of protection (representing unvaxed, fully vaxed, and fully vaxed with recent booster).This study uses mathematical models based off of outdated levels of expected vaccine effectiveness (ex. 80% effective against Delta infection), including hypothetical levels of protection against Omicron (the study is dated 14 Dec 2021).
