Do tell Mr. Tam, why are the double vaxed and a booster being tested positive for covid 19 and are the ones in the hospital ?????
There are less than 12% of Canadians still unvaccinated and half of you are younger than 9 years old LOL
Always worst case scenario…. if it actually worked like that in the real world.
Just a reminder… the true racists in Canada wear blackface… or those that look at someone wearing blackface, see that someone else shares their values, and says ‘I need this person to represent me.’
Why the hell would you model Omicron to be the same hospitalization rate as Delta?
This is insanity.
Naturally the lines don’t prove anything. They just graph varying assumptions. These presentations raise concerns. For instance, the YouTube headline says “restrictions will help Canada reach Omicron peak sooner”. Of course that’s not proven by the graph, just an assumption of the person who drew it.
It’s also commonly understood across Europe. Cry more
Absolutely. Just a bunch of speculation and I dont care even if they are correct. Open up Canada!
When was ever the modeling ever right. They had same modeling in England and it was total wrong!
Means nothing,
Lol the modelling is the advertising program
You give er a go…see how easy it is
I noticed even with all the surgeries being cancelled Dr. Terry Tam was still able to have his prominent Adam’s apple removed !!
Anti-vax morons
When you have nothing to say……..
Translation: Restrictions will make cases go up faster
I think it means that the peak is lower, so it takes less time to get there.
Should, could, might. These ‘doctors’ are government talking heads. just my opinion
These models estimate the “true” number of cases….how can estimates of a possible future event be “true”.
I’m trying to keep my optimism in check, but I really think this wave is going to spell the end of the day-to-day impact of the pandemic. It also looks as if we are successfully flattening this wave, even if it’s been really annoying!
Are you optimistic enough to think the lock downs and mandates will end as well or are we still going to be restricted to move unless everyone complies?
If the weatherman always was wrong every single time about the weather and never even once got the forecast correct would you still follow his advice?

Finally! A face that can instill confidence!
The modeling is ridiculous, it has never ever been accredit.

Weather men are always wrong. I took intro atmospheric science and could predict it better. With no fancy super computer that they bragged about all course long being able to accurately predict weather up to a week in advance. More like 2 or 3 days. Scientists are clueless. Braindead society.
@Nicnicnicolas89 Bro you’re talkign to a bot
how have those restrictions helped? we’re worse off now than we ever were during the pandemic… and we had vaccines for the past 6 months. Tam and all Health officials for the provinces should resign
Things could have been worse, we’ll never know

Let’s reach the Omicron peak sooner in anticipation for the next variant . . . . . . yehey more restrictions to come
The Big O has peaked in the UK.
So far all of the modelling the government has given since the start of the pandemic has been wrong hahahahhaah
Modeling is just that…a forecast…. an estimate, what don’t you understand about that?
@Daniel House I understood that it has been wrong on almost every occasion u fool
