The province is still in good shape with only 257 total cases (including 5 recoveries) spanning a pretty large area but the thing to watch is if the new cases start to go exponential. ATM about 1/3 of the new cases are connected to travel or direct contact with a known case and the remaining 2/3 are under further investigation.

ATM about 1/3 of the new cases are connected to travel or direct contact with a known case and the remaining 2/3 are under further investigation. In yesterday's briefing, they clarified that in the 10:30 update, most of the cases would show pending, but by 5:30, it would be updated. The reality was, they are being entered into the system as the tests come back positive, before the local health system can look into them at all. True to form in the 5:30 update , yesterday's cases in Ontario were almost exclusively explained by travel and/or close contact with another known case. (As of yesterday, 92% of the total cases could be directly explained.) Link directly to the Ontario details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the reported cases come in before they've fully tracked down how the person got sick. It's encouraging that they can confirm 1/3 of them so quickly. I'm certain most will be pegged at travel or direct contact. If community spread is kept super low then then we could be in a good place 2-3 weeks out after the full repercussions of closing the border kicks in.

In order for community transmitted COVID-19 to stay low, we need returning travellers to take self-isolation seriously. There is some evidence, that this is not happening.

AbsolutSurgen Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share Posted March 19, 2020 Experimental drug holds promise for treating the coronavirus Quote There are early signs that an experimental treatment for people who become very sick from the coronavirus may start working within 24 hours of the first dose. The treatment, an antiviral therapy called remdesivir, is thought to work by blocking the virus from reproducing itself in the body. "It basically stops the production of the virus," Dr. Gregory Poland, an infectious diseases expert and director of the Mayo Clinic's Vaccine Research Group in Rochester, Minnesota, told NBC News. Preliminarily, it seems at least two hospitalized patients who got the drug started to feel better the next day. I am really hoping the clinical tests come out positive, and that governments will expeditated approval so we can shorten the crisis.

There is some evidence, that this is not happening. One must get from the airport to home to self isolate. The shit that worries me is on sunday I went to a local coffee shop to grab a cup to go and the place was full of people hanging out. -.- I've now switched to making pour over at home. 59 minutes ago, Firewithin said: Funny but also I hate this bullshit. A company does not need to monitor their employees. You set out an agreed amount of work to be done w/ KPI and providing it gets done then who the fuck cares. If the work is not complete then you hold the employee accountable for what they agreed to do. Tracking and monitoring software just ultimately makes things far worse. I worked for a small VR startup that tried to pull this shit. When they question me why I wasn't at my desk for a while I straight up told them their tracking software is slowing down my builds and I'm stuck waiting for them to complete (they played coy and then immediately removed the software from my computer).
