Not So Fast


Although it looks like the number of Canada's new COVID-19 cases have dropped, it is only because yesterday's numbers were inflated by 800 Quebec "Probable" cases becoming 800 "Confirmed".

So if you ignore yesterday's number of ~1,400, still a large increase form the previous day.

[As always, click the graph to zoom in.]





Now I guess they are trying to sell newspapers or whatever, but interesting that the media always call it a spike in new cases, or a surge, or deaths have skyrocketed.

Always with the hyperbole.

I am outraged and incensed when they do this!!

Just give me the data and let me decide on which adjective to use.
