Some Covid updates

There may have been no officially recorded Covid deaths Sunday, but a Ste‑Justine epidemiologist says that while a decline in deaths gives reason to hope, we need to take that figure with a grain of salt because weekend numbers are often held till later. Covid numbers are also surging globally as authorities let up on lockdowns.

One study has shown that acquired immunity doesn’t last long in asymptomatic carriers. This is not great news, as Quebecers are far readier to congregate in groups than other Canadians.
