Ontario testing rates are flat – the increase in cases is because
there are more cases, not more tests being done

A 6 week stay-at-home order with a vaccination rate of at
least 100K doses per day is the only way to flatten the curve.
Figure summarizes
predictions across 4
models with many
scenarios.
Stay-at-home order
assumptions:
• 4 or 6 weeks starting Apr 8
• Weak to strong effect on
transmission
Vaccine assumptions:
• 60% effective in preventing
infection
• 100,000 doses/day
• Administered at random
Predictions informed by modeling from COVID-19 ModCollab, Fields Institute, McMasterU, PHO, YorkU 8
Data (Observed Cases): covid-19.ontario.ca
Under every scenario, more vaccines mean a faster resolution
in the long-run

As predicted, ICU occupancy is rising dramatically. System-level
public health measures will help blunt some of the impact.
