Ford spoke hours after he warned that the ability to control the spread of Covid-19 in Top Ontario was still “very vague”.
Following Quebec’s lead: Ntantario followed neighbor Quebec, which reintroduced austerity measures at the start of the holiday season. Quebec, the country’s second most populous province, is hitting private gatherings for a large number of Quebecers between December 17 and January 10.
In the United States, Nantario and Quebec have more than 23 million people or more than 60 percent of Canada’s population.
NT Ontario Shutdown: New restrictions will be imposed for four weeks in the more densely populated south of the province, including cities such as Toronto and Tt Tova. In Ontario’s northern small towns and communities, the control measures will apply for two weeks.
The measures will take effect on December 26 at 12:01 p.m.
These include banning individual shopping at most retail stores, banning indoor and outdoor dining, banning ind access to shopping malls, and restricting gatherings for members of the same household.
Asked why Ontario did not take drastic action immediately, Ford said he wanted to give businesses a little breathing space. He added that he wanted to be fair to businesses with large inventories as well as businesses that would be forced to close for the first time since the epidemic began.
Take a look at Ntntario: The epidemic is putting significant pressure on Ntantario’s health care system. Ford said hospital admissions have increased by 70 percent and intensive care admissions by 80 percent in recent weeks.
After releasing updated models for the province, Co-Chairman of the Covid-19 Science Advisory Table in Nantario “Our ability to control the growth of the case is still unclear,” Edelstein Brown said at a news conference on Monday. “The continued low-level growth we’ve seen is only adding more and more pressure and increasingly undermining our ability to control epidemic growth.”
Brown, who is also dean of Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto, said the number of cases has risen by about one percent over the past two months, despite warnings from officials about the situation.
“In terms of the length of the l-k-down, … we don’t believe anything less than four weeks will be effective and the long term will be more effective – six weeks gives a significant additional reduction in the number of cases,” he said.
The Canadian capital city of Towa has been a bright spot in terms of controlling Covid. But Ford said that despite its resilience, there would also be a lock-down due to concerns about a possible influx of visitors to Quebec near Que Tova.
Canada’s Covid-19 status: According to data from the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center compiled by the National Bank of Canada, an average of 177.8 new covid cases are seen every day in the country during the last seven days.
In comparison, similar data figures show that the United States reported an average of 654.9 new cases each day last week.
The Canadian Public Health Agency said on Monday that 507,795 cases had been reported and 14,228 people had died since the outbreak began. Health authorities are also monitoring the genetic variant of the virus that causes Covid-19, which was identified in the United Kingdom.
Ford said it was also “very frightened” by reports of new strains of the virus being more contagious. He described it as an “extremely serious threat” that must be taken seriously.
He called on the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to crack down on Toronto’s Pearson Airport, where he says 63,000 foreigners arrive each week.
Ford said he was asking the Trudeau government “week after week” about getting tested at the airport.
“It’s beyond me why they’re ignoring this,” Ford said. Ford said not enough people coming into the country adhered to quarantine rules. “These people are roaming the streets and we let that happen.”
Economic Outcomes: Canada’s economy, like many around the world, has been hit by the coronavirus lockdown.
Small and medium-sized businesses are hard hit and the prospect of an additional week’s ban is eating away at fears of further economic losses.
“Regardless of whether you support or oppose additional l-downs in Ntntario, small business owners who lose everything they’ve done as a result of this decision will give up the idea,” said Dan Kelly. President and CEO. The Canadian Federation Independent of Independent Business wrote on Twitter on Monday. “Biz owners are hanging by a rope and the Nantario government is going to cut it.”
