An infectious disease expert says "there's no doubt" that a sixth wave of COVID-19 sweeping across Ontario and it's being driven by the highly transmissible BA.2 subvariant at the same time restrictions have been lifted across the province.
"We've opened the doors to a new variant," Colin Furness, an expert in infectious disease epidemiology from the University of Toronto, told CTV National News. "Then eliminated all of our defenses."

If “experts” are always wrong, should they still be called “experts”?
My favourite “expert” is Dr. Fauci who told everyone not to wear a mask during a pandemic back in 2020 🤣
If you haven’t noticed “expert” is just a label.
You must be waiting for Dr. Kyrie Irving and Dr. Aaron Rodgers to finish their research.
@Derek Lobenbruck When new information is available, advice changes.
these “health officials” like being on camera too much
Maybe it is to educate those who don’t seem to get it.
@cindy b I understand fully, I’m just not a coward. You take what ppe measures you want just don’t dictate what others should do, pretty simple.
You must be waiting for Dr. Kyrie Irving and Dr. Aaron Rodgers to finish their research.
Please provide data and a link for “…at the same time be doing massive damage”. So many “conclusions” like this or the opposite end of the spectrum. What we need is the raw data that demonstrates your conclusion of “massive damage” for young and healthy individuals. No one I know has suffered this so-called damage FWIW.
Well, if YOU don’t know anyone that’s suffered internal damage, I guess the scientists can just be ignored, right? 🙄
Pure evil brainwashing to the innocents
You must be waiting for Dr. Kyrie Irving and Dr. Aaron Rodgers to finish their research.
Massive internal damage…. right…
When I saw that, I burst out laughing. hahah
This whole thing is comedy 😂
Congrats Ontario for reaching the 6th wave!
👏👏👏👏👏🤣😂
Wait… every time restrictions are life cases go up.
When Italy won the Euro cup zero cases reported.
Gaslighting
😠😠😠😠
10th wave and we get a highscore
6th? I thought we were on the 3rd still. Oh my these individuals are wayyyyyyy out there! Come on! We know we’ve bern lied to! It’s been proven! Stop with the nonsense already! Pfft.
@S4D D4WG 😄
yay for the common cold!
Screw the wave…. we’re done. Time to face it and build natural immunity so we can actually end this. If you’re overweight or vulnerable stay home and let’s direct support to you…. starting with a diet intervention and a gym membership.
Lol for sure weird how they shut down gyms.
Data. Also, let’s talk about superior natural immunity.
I guess “waste water surveillance” is easier to digest than calling them “poop-monitoring weirdos”.
Lmao this guy is scared of his own shadow
you dont have to be educated to see this come again,i knew this 6 mos ago
When you realize you’re at the wave pool 😂
They will never stop crying for money
I’m on the 10th wave already.
Don’t go outside. You might get hit by a car. Same logic
Why is this guy screaming the sky is falling now. Junior screwed this up 2+ years ago. Report that.
He doesn’t realize how he’s basically saying vaccines don’t work LOL
EVERYBODY BE VERY AFRAID… of our government!!! What a fn clown show
LOL…..well of course…but hey, how about the news on the princess cruise with 100% vaxed passengers that had an outbreak…or do things like that get hidden from the public?
What can I say I predicted this theirs gonna be another lockdown
