Coronavirus: Little information on how people are becoming infected with COVID-19

The instruction has been repetitive during the COVID-19 pandemic: limit your contacts with people outside your own homes.

As cases continue to rise, public health data shows a majority of people don't know how they got the virus, creating issues in contact tracing.

Whether it's going to the gym or visiting a restaurant, as Abigail Bimman reports, experts say we may never know what activities are safe to participate in because Canadians are allowed more contacts than in the spring, creating more chances for exposure.

I swear to god, every time I click on a Coronavirus vid,
it's the same goddamn thing I heard six months ago

Most of the information is not reported, such as studies revealing next to zero asymptomatic transmission and extremely high false positive rate.

Ummm no Theresa, the cases are NOT at the same level as they were in the spring🤦‍♀️. Come on lady, you went to med school, surely you are smart enough to realize that we were only testing a fraction of actual cases in the spring. We were only testing those who had actual illness and had travelled. Now we are testing every Tom, Dick and Harry. Here’s a little tidbit. The false positive rate of the PCR is 0.8%. Now, that may seem small when you are only testing 6000 people in a day and the viral prevalence is much higher, like in April, but it is quite a significant number when it is the opposite, prevalence low and test numbers high. So, let’s do a little math. If we test 40, 000 people in a day, like we typically do in Ontario, and we get 550 positives, how many false positives does that equate to? It is 320! That’s right Dr. Tam. 320 people who have been told that they have Covid 19 when in fact they do not. Want to know why you are having a hard time figuring out where they caught it from? Because they don’t even have it in the first place🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️. The cases right now are NOWHERE NEAR what they were in the spring. We just did not have the tests back then to show it!!!

CASES RISE AS THE NEED for the propaganda increases. Mortality is dropping, recoveries are rising...so the SCAM needs more cases to continue.

What we did in June was good, what we're doing now is bad.

Even when the curve was flat for 3 months they didn't end restrictions or mask mandates. Hospitals aren't overwhelmed nobody is even dying of covid in Canada.

Maybe just maybe it was here before they thought it was, or the testing at first was inadequate leading to pockets of cases going unnoticed.

*SCHOOLS* Hundreds of Kids & Terms crammed into a building every day....then put on public transit to spread it around to the public. I got mine from my daughter who has an almost unnoticable cough. It was so mild. like severe pneumonia. You keep saying" social gatherings". There are NO GATHERINGS larger than *SCHOOLS* 😳🙄

Little information on how people are getting infected with fear, and discontent.

LITTLE INFO OR LITTLE RESEARCH. ARENT GONNA BE TOLD EVERYTHING.

[darnellh]

Just a guess but it may have something to do with having to be close to strangers

[boyscout]

Theresa did better in playing madame Gao in Iron Fist. Not so much playing medical experts.

[waynewazy]

oh wow!!! that's a lot of oh wait that's just cases? bahahahah. shut down the world. except Walmart and Costco of course.

[TheFerrariFFan]

hmmmm GAS STATIONS :) GROCERY STORES :) LOL Everyone Goes There :)

[clintg]

Masks work? I haven't seen anyone not wearing a

[spencerrobinson]

The vented mask you showed in your thumbnail does NOT protect against aerosol particles... might not be helping

[TAFARN]

Time to get off your butts and do a little old fashion investigative research. Stop with the cut and paste journalism.

[SundayzCrows]

Blah Blah Blah Blah did you say, I couldn’t hear you??? I was too busy enjoying myself and laughing with people who make sense.

[Murdgh]

What happened to putting fines on all these people who disobey the rules? If you are not going to enforce the rule then don’t make them! The majority of people wearing masks now are just the flimsy surgical type, those aren’t going to protect anyone. I hate having to wear a mask too but the one I have has 3 filters in it.
