Because months of locking down entire economies, cloth masks that no one had faith in, stickers on the floor telling us what to do and standing several feet apart was so effective before:
A spokesperson for Premier Doug Ford did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but the government has said new measures would be announced Monday.
Meanwhile, the province reported 2,316 new cases of COVID-19 on Sunday and 25 deaths related to the novel coronavirus.
That marked the sixth consecutive day the province has registered more than 2,000 new infections.
Health Minister Christine Elliott said 486 of the daily cases are in Toronto, 468 in Peel Region, 326 in York Region, 151 in Windsor-Essex and 128 in Niagara.
All of those regions are currently under lockdown due to rising case counts, except for Niagara, which is moving to the red alert level of the province’s pandemic plan tomorrow.
Hamilton is also set to go into lockdown on Monday.
Provincial data also shows 875 people are currently in hospital as a result of COVID-19, with 261 in intensive care and 156 on ventilators. Elliott said more than 69,400 tests have been completed since the last daily report.
If Ford had the b@lls and was truly convinced that this virus was not only incredibly contagious but dangerous to all, not only those with pre-existing health conditions, he would shut down everything. Why would viruses care if one needed to buy milk or attend school?
Your move, Doug.
