Canada is starting to get it under control, but it will spike from from all the March Break travelers returning home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. And testing varies a lot. If the US suddenly had a bunch of test kits available and we didn’t that makes the spike worse. but both will have spring break returns.

If we ignore it short term and 375,000 die prematurely in Canada the banks and insurance companies are in for some huge payouts. Assume 100,000 properties come on the market and some of the dead have stocks that get sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snopro31 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Canada will jump to around 2500 by monday if projections are right. BC and Ontario are going to double and deaths will triple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets hope it keeps up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 (edited) https://coronavirus.1point3acres.com/#stat It's a very well done site. Been using it for a couple days. They tend to cite sources for all their updates. You can find out a ton about how much testing is being done in your area, case rates, etc. Edited March 20, 2020 by Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
