While other countries are starting to open up we just had a record number of new cases and we also added 74 bodies to the ever-growing pile. Now, I might not be as smart as Tegnell and other experts but looking at our numbers and then those of other nations doesn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Yeah I would say things aren't going good as they should, we were suppose to hit herd-immunity in stockholm last month. And our death toll is a little to high. I don't know how many people they expecting to die here, but first thing our Prime minister said was that thousands of swedes will die, that sounds like 3-4k to me.

But it's to late to change anything now, we just haft to w8 intill early next year, were they hopefully will remove that 50 limit-people gathering and we just haft to see what happens.

It's not too late to change, tighten down restrictions in the hot spots and get the virus under control in a month. It's all those soft measures that only make things worse in the long run.

Here it seems phase 1 will continue as planned despite going back into growth again. At lease phase 2 is on hold and gatherings over 5 people are still banned. Maybe some time cases will actually start to come down in Ontario. We dropped just below 400 cases a day early May, and that's where we still are currently. Started re-opening too soon.

Of course regionally things are different, north of Toronto phase 2 could begin.

I live at the black dot. The big red zone to the South is Norfolk where the recent farm outbreak is. Toronto is that smaller red rectangle on the shore to the North East. The orange zone to the North of me is Region of Waterloo with troublesome long term care homes (including Forest Heights Revera in Kitchener I mentioned in my previous post)

A lot of people that live here work in the Region of Waterloo or Hamilton, Missisauga or even Toronto to the East. Restarting things too soon will mix it all around again. And without access to any anti body tests to found out whether my wife already had (and barely survived) covid-19, we'll have to stay as careful as possible. Her mom is so worried she won't let me do the groceries and she's bringing us supplies instead of letting me help them. That's the burden of being a mother, worrying about your kids for the rest of your life. My wife is the same with our kids. She would not have let them go back to school anyway if they had re-opened this month.
