Honestly I'm quite surprised how well Canada (especially Ontario) is doing comparatively speaking. We've been open economically with some indoor restrictions since the summer (# of people, masking, etc.), and also with kids going back to school in Sept, I thought the cases will have a hug spike again by now, but it had a small hump early fall and has been slowly decreasing even though restrictions have loosened over that period. I guess having 85% of eligible population (age 12+) being fully vaccinated + masks really helps.
I was just about to post something on this matter as there was some questions by some people as to how well the vaccines can prevent infection.
So far in Ontario we have seen about 300-500 new cases a day for the past month, out of these cases 1/3 of them are fully vaccinated.
So we can see that infection is still going to happen.
Looking at Hospitalizations we are seeing since we hit 70%+ (Sometime in late summer) they have gone down from a peak of 2000 (early summer) to ~150 and have been holding steady since.
Deaths have been ~10 or under for the same period
The population of the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) is roughly the same as Singapore, but only ~10% of the population density. The vaccination levels are also roughly the same.
Right now Singapore is averaging roughly 3000 new cases per day and ~1000 Hospitalized, so there is a rough correlation there.
Looking at deaths, Singapore is only slightly higher at this same rough timeframe.
