This is a different virus then the March and April one. It is much milder and does not require hospitalization for healthy people. Educate yourself instead of blindly believing the media.

The more that people get tested, the more reason for the gov to lock down the economy again. Good job sheeple!

They must have been driving down the 401 highway when they came up with that number

Come on Canada. We’re Counting on you to keep on setting the example.

Got a buzz cut; ready for the next shut down. Every month, walk in, get tested negative but nobody listens to the average. Perhaps the only real positive is many are more aware of the real ills of society, thus, a little more caring, a little more strict with harmful lifestyles

They've opened up 3 new testing Centers in Ottawa Alone and this is a ridiculous claim you've multiplied the amount of testing

when you hit 401, just increase your speed (sad joke, but true)

HOW IS THIS ACCEPTABLE? WTF? Border couples/families have sacrificed our lives for ALMOST A YEAR?! but NHL, Hollywood, strip clubs, bars are 'essential'? 12 Countries have made policies. TEST & QUARANTINE! FIX THIS NOW CANADA!! LoveIsNotTourism

this is not a second wave its the first wave continuing its spread ... we locked down hard in march no one was exposed, no immunity was acquired so what on earth would you expect to happen ... viruses spread its what they do

Increased testing can have that effect... What if the numbers were up all along but people just weren't being tested? If covid is far more widespread than anticipated? What if serological testing were done and it was discovered FAR more people have had it with little/no issues?

how many deaths are in the 401 cases? what's the average age of deaths? when did the ghost of Freelands granddad take over your company?

Canadian Patriot Isn't Very Smart

400 new cases of maybe a cough and the sniffles!!! The horror!!!

Stop getting tested!! If you don't feel well stay home just like any other virus you get
