The data for deaths, hospitalizations, cases, tells a story of a pandemic that affected different parts of the country differently
A look at the data across the country shows a pandemic that has affected different parts of the country differently.
This is orders of magnitude smaller than in Quebec or Ontario , Manitoba , Saskatchewan , Alberta and British Columbia .Article content Quebec’s death rate in the spring of 2020, when the pandemic first began, peaked at more than 14 deaths per 100,000. No other province has come close to that, except for Manitoba in the second wave, which saw deaths at roughly 13 per 100,000. At that time, Quebec’s death rate was less than 10 per 100,000, as was Alberta’s and Saskatchewan’s, whereas B.C. and Ontario hovered around five per 100,000.
After a lull in the summer of 2020, cases began to climb last fall, carrying through until Christmas. Another lull, after public-health restrictions had their effect, presaged a third wave in spring 2021. Many provinces saw peaks in their cases and deaths in waves two and three. And now, after a relatively calm summer, there’s a fourth wave hitting parts of the country.Article content
