Hi All,
Trust you are all doing well.
Here is a table I compiled from the current figures I can find for Canada (this is a moving target and provinces have different reporting processes).

As you can see:
· BC is doing fairly well in testing volumes (although a little behind Alberta and far behind countries like Iceland who are doing five times more with serious contact tracing, broad testing in institutions and random population sampling).
· Quebec and Newfoundland remain the hotspots for cases.
· It looks like BC is taking a different approach in reporting recoveries as I am sure we are not that superhuman.
· Unfortunately, largely due to the Lynn Valley Care Centre outbreak, we have lost more folk per capita than elsewhere in Canada.
I also added figures from our friends south of the border, dang!
Cheers
Cliff
