Here is another example of why I struggle to trust the numbers coming from the US.
"Oops, we "forgot" to clear any of our active cases, which overstated them by 5600%" Active cases dropped over night from 4600 to 81 once an audit was done. How many other counties is this happening in?

Collin County had 215 new cases today and 96 new cases yesterday ... there's no way they have active cases around there.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

How is this possible when masks have been mandatory for a month? Why are cases increasing and not decreasing? Should we wear two masks instead of just one? Social distancing extended to 8 feet instead of 6? Only 2 people in elevators instead of 3? Thicker plexiglass at cash registers? Shower stations instead of hand sanitizer?
But seriously, what is the theory on daily cases being almost unchanged since August when everyone is being more careful?
I like neat cars.
Just wait till everyone is in doors, it’s really gonna explode. Find out soon enough

I have to agree, I think the numbers are staying the same or going up because people are just getting complacent and comfortable with Covid haha, judging from instagram stories alone life is normal from what I can see for a lot of people.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Because mask usage is not mandatory where spread is occurring the most. Private parties and restaurants were where cases were being linked back to, but you cant legislate mask use at someone's home and they're not going to close restaurants. Aside from the occasional employee, no large numbers were being traced back to grocery stores, but apparently they are risky places.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

That's Quebec applying auto recovery from reporting.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Was always active:
Now recovery is assumed after set days:Essentially, Quebec had been unique in not assuming people had recovered from COVID-19 if they weren't in hospital or deceased. Once people tested positive, if there was no further proof of their recovery, their case would still be listed as active.
For most people, once 14 days have passed since a positive test, they'll be considered recovered if not hospitalized or deceased. For people considered immunosuppressed, the algorithm will count them as recovered after 21 days. And for people over age 80 or living in long-term care homes, it's 28 days.

Gathering without proper precaution still happens and gladly that's what most of these outbreaks are. Not random condo hallways and such. So I think that's fine and expected as fatigue sets in. And I'm sure many are coming back from summer family vacation as well before school starts so I think it's inevitable.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
At peak, AB has 3000 active cases and we are teetering on around 1000 right now with everything opened. Although it is not a fair comparison (May vs Aug), but it does seems there is some impact.

A photo of an outdoor party Sunday night with the banner “You can’t eat ASS with a mask on” sparked much conversation on social media. Many said in replies to the original tweet that they were disappointed but not surprised.
Information graduate student Daniella Raz captured the viral photograph while she was walking home. She said she saw the party at about 9:30 p.m. Sunday night.
She said the banner proves some students don’t plan on following public health guidelines.

having the numbers creep up or down is fine. What we're worried about is evidence of exponential growth.
Take a look around and you'll see a huge number of people not following the rules. The most popular ways to wear a mask it seems are around the chin, below the nose, or dangling from one ear. Downtown there are more people not following them than following them from my observations. In my office there are zero people wearing masks or social distancing, meetings are carrying on as normal, people are visiting without a mask in other people's offices, etc. Our elevators do not have social distancing rules because it isn't even 6 feet wide and 4 people are allowed in. Building staff are not enforcing the rules. Gyms do not require masks, nor do schools / daycares with little kids and restaurants do not require them. On top of all this, the punishment is minimal and enforcement is nonexistent. The last flight I was on the guy beside me was not wearing a mask at all and the WestJet staff couldn't have cared less. There was another guy on the same flight wearing a wire-mesh hunting mask (looked like it was for bow hunting protection) with 1/4" gaps in the mesh covering his mouth lol. It's probably better than nothing, but nobody should be surprised we aren't doing as good of a job as we could be.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Doesn't CBE now require mask at desk now? If so, this is more of a problem for schools that doesn't mandate masks at desk.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
End of the day, a mandatory mask order from the province for school opening probably a more consistent message and saying social distancing isn't required in classrooms.
