Short-term modelling projections based on current case numbers indicate that by Aug. 23, the number of cases could be as high as 127,740, up from the current total of 121,650

Dr. Tam said that as restrictions are lifted, she expects a resurgence in cases until treatments or vaccines become available, but that the goal will be to keep rates low and manageable.

Dr. Tam also said the fall flu season is expected to occur along with the pandemic, and health officials plan to manage a potential “convergence” of viral activity. However, the federal data also showed that the highest number of outbreaks continues to be linked to long-term care homes and seniors’ residences, followed by restaurants, bars and retail establishments.

“If there’s an unacceptable number of new cases, the public health units could certainly clamp back down,” he said.

Why do we have to listen to this petson? Who has not helped with 1 useful piece of information, and also was quick to call out President Trump for being racist when closer the borders? She is awful, and Canadians... your tax dollars pay her million dollar salary...think

How the hell is this person still employed ?

Fuck that critter. Canadians are done with this bullshit. Only fearful little liberals are taking any of it seriously, and thankfully there's getting to be fewer and fewer of them everyday.

She is personally responsible for the spread of the coronavirus and the deaths of so many in Canada. Stop blaming individuals who had their reservations about masks. It was her. She made the calls.

Crooked

How is she still around?

The only people who have died from this mild flu have been people over 70 who were already at death's door. Almost no children or young people have died. This is an insane power play built on nothing more than media hysteria.

Some doctor. Herd immunity is where it's at. Restrictions only benefit the Liberal minority government by limiting the effectiveness of the opposition.

Sorry Dr.Tam.....Bill Gates already beat you to the news...weeks ago!! How did he know?😏😏😏😏😏

Dr.Tom can go fly a kite!

Wow... show some RESPECT for OUR 🇨🇦 top Public Health DOCTOR! She’s just the messenger. She may determine if YOU get Covid19 or not!!

You go monkey lady. Everything you have ever said has been wrong so far.

Sick of her nonsense

Don't like this lady at all, keeps scaring the public not helping us along the way.

Like how they leave out the current death number

Ah yes, the always moving goalposts. Don't worry, in another couple months she'll probably be saying something completely different. 🙄🤔

Don't listen to this Dr.Knownothing,listen to Dr.Yan,worlds top virologist in Coronavirus, core member in HongKong University WHO reference Lab.

Lies and more lies... wake up people

I’m doing my part wearing a mask. So simple

She was the one who said not to ban travel and not to wear a mask. She is the 1 expert we have. But here we have fake news G&M still shoveling us her crap.

Why do we all accept this such as sheeples?

Negative. Is she a prophet? So far incompetency. 🇨🇦🙏

She appears strangely gleeful when reporting bad news, sort of like 'the angel of death.'

🙄 panic porn

Lies.

Yeah right, is she also waiting for the tooth fairy?

Not wearing no damn mask for another 2 years...thanks China

Tam’s a useful idiot 🤔

Oh shut up already! What do you know? Yes it's true, we have the Flu virus every year and it's been mutating each year. So leave us alone!

🤦‍♀️🙄🤦‍♀️🙄🤦‍♀️🙄🤦‍♀️

Who is doing modeling?

Just go away we already know this and you’re a political mouthpiece for a virtue signalling Trudeau regime...

Associate Chief Medical Officer of Health for Ontario Canada admits COVID-19 tests give false positives... in other words, they're wrong... half of the time. But these are the tests which governments are basing all of their policies on and which the media is reporting as 'cases'.

Covid will continue. The end. Now, get on with life and add another covid virus to the list of covid viruses in circulation.

Get ready, will be going into a full lock down. Stage 69.

SEND COUSIN IT HOME

So it’s going to be another influenza, there will be deaths like the flu, but you can’t keep shutting down the economy, eventually that will be worse than any bug

She makes my skin crawl.

Imagine if you led the engineering team for a major car manufacturer and your advice was so bad it set the company back by having to retool. Then for a further demonstration of your leadership you announced the set back may well continue into the next two years. Yeah. cdnpoli

We heard that already.

So nothing has changed?

This dude really has to go. It hasn’t been right all along.

Why should we listen to this highly incompetent political hack? “Masks don’t work” Incompetence

RESIGN!!!!

SARS cov 2 (covid-19) is 76% identical to SARS cov 1. HCQ is EXTREMELY effective for SC1 said FAUCI in 2005. Thousands upon thousands of front line doctors have saved thousands of lives using HCQ. BUT banned from use now, all the big pharma won’t get a BIG PAY DAY if they do.

No one is waiting that long. No one cares.

yeah they will drag this hoax on as long as people keep being dumb enough to believe it

We already have too many presents that did not come to fruition from this doctor/politician

So we all have to live with heightened stress for two years 😣

Hey Canada is this the best you got?

Oh, please, or should we all cut our throats now?
