What In the World - Part Trois

Yesterday we saw that Ontario was under the Canadian Covid-19 average rate for November.

But let's drill in on it anyway.  Because;

  1. even though it is under the national average, there are some bad offenders there,
  2. it is the largest province in Canada, and
  3. it's the only province I have data for.
So......this chart drills down from the Canadian chart to individual regions in Ontario.  [As always, click on any graph to zoom in.]

Not surprisingly, the three largest areas (Toronto, Brampton and York region) are at - and have always been at - the top.

And at 240, that puts Brampton almost up there with Spain.  Spain!  But it's still not as bad as Manitoba.

And at 135, that puts Toronto.....just over the Canadian average for November.

What?!  How can that be?  Arnotti fact checkers are scratching their heads.

Well, that means that while everyone has been pointing, no wagging, fingers at Toronto, it is really lots of other places that have been driving Canada's rate (below) sky high.


Remember when we were freaking out back in April when we first went over 2,000 cases in one day?

Ah, good times. 

Well, maybe we just need to wait this out.  That's probably the wise choice.....
