The Final Word

I think the entire world is realizing this now, thanks to Covid

My, aren't we becoming 'TRENDY'. Trending down that is. Number of new cases in Ontario today: 2349 down by 313... The 7 day rolling average: Jan. 10 3945 Jan. 11 3555 Jan. 12 3523 Jan. 13 3480 Jan. 14 3452 Jan. 15 3273. Jan. 18 3035 Jan. 22 2703 And...today 2359 How to calculate the 7 day rolling average: Add up all the new cases from the last 7 days and divide by seven. It provides you with an average number of cases over time, and it knocks out the big peaks and valleys in the day to day readings. Take home message, over the last 7 days, the number of new cases continues to decline at a fairly good rate. IF we keep this up, we will be at less than 1,000 new cases a day by next weekend. Pretty dramatic and positive effect of our efforts!!! https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data#case_numbers_and_spread COIVD 19 Patients in Hospital: 1521 down by 21 Number of cases in ICU: 383 down by 5 Number of cases on a ventilator: 291 down by 2 87 deaths yesterday and 52 today. We are saving lives folks. Get outside if you can today or put your eyeballs near a window. Take in the sun. It reduces the hormones that cause depression and, it just brings hope! Thirty minutes of walking fights depression and hopelessness too. Take a three layered mask with you and put it on if people are close by. I wear mine dangling from one ear and slip the other loop on when I am approaching other people. It's easier than keeping the mask in my pocket, pulling out and putting it back in all the time.
