8231 new cases in Quebec
8,231 new cases of Covid turned up over the last 24 hours in Quebec, as Canada marked two million cases since the start of the pandemic. Emergency wards are still bracing for a rush as hospitalizations rose by 38% since official counts went silent for the Christmas break.
There’s also some gloomy déjà vu with the news of a CHSLD outbreak in St‑Hubert.
Update: Radio-Canada says Tuesday’s count will be 12,830.
Update again: there will be a presser at 1 pm Tuesday.

From what I’ve seen we are looking at 75-85 hospitalizations per day since last Friday, and about 240 admissions on Monday
So we are bang on to the curves predicted by health authorities in early December assuming nothing was done.
