Why isn’t the government following what Korea does? Is it that hard to ask from another country what they do to stop the escalation of infected people? The gov’t should use the health budget to proper use!

Wait until the kids partying in Florida come home!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CCampbellCTV It's a lot higher. They're not even testing front line workers.

How many can they test for one day.? Looks like only 1000/day.

There was no need to translate in English since he spoke out in English afterwards. What’s the point of having him speak French if you couldn’t hear him 🤷🏼‍♀️

50 more people caught a 'cold' yesterday in Ontario. Let's call it what it is instead of this panic inducing nonsense.

Here is a prevention mantra by ONE or a “BEST” (that means free one love an the one way) subliminal subconscient telepathic and verbal commandment that programs your subconscient to push away the corona virus ans infections naturally when not careful

JustinTrudeau epdevilla CPHO_Canada globalnews VERY concerning! WE NEED LOCKDOWN.Without it, those in control are putting our society,our people,businesses in DANGER. LOCK IT DOWN. Message should not be a recommendation it should be an ORDER for all of Canada to STAY HOME!

excuse me

My dad came into contact with someone who tested positive and couldn’t even reach the number of telehealth. He’s been self quarantining anyways. Probably has it but no testing for him. How many more people go through the same?

Thank you Mr. Prime Minister for not acting sooner to restrict travel.

Not enough testing. Delays of 5 days for results. Numbers are likely 10x higher if not more.

I’m betting real number of previous cases and current cases is in the tens of thousands at minimum.

Technical issue prevents Ontario residents from contacting Telehealth about COVID-19Ontario residents trying to contact Telehealth amid the COVID-19 pandemic were greeted with an automatic message Wednesday saying they were experiencing “telephone difficulties” and that people should try calling back later. Not only that, but despite the Min Of Health stating they are hiring up extra nurses for this..there is no info or link in on their website regarding these jobs. We have the same kind of issue in Quebec. It will take a little adjustment I guess... Why did I have to bring my 77 year old father to Service Ontario during this crisis to renew his health card? I called and they said he could not do it online and he had to come in. They need to change this! Why is the government not making contingencies to protect seniors

Second COVID-19-related death in Ontario believed to be linked to 'local transmission'Health officials believe the second COVID-19-related death in Ontario was linked to 'local transmission,' as the man in his 50s had no recent travel history outside of Canada and was not a close contact of any known cases of the virus. Close our borders and enforce people to stay in doors. Our medical system is already at it’s peek and we haven’t seen the worst of it yet.
