The Gardiner Expressway in Toronto is almost empty in the as the sun rises on Sunday, April 19, 2020. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Frank GunnTORONTO -- An infectious disease doctor is warning that he wouldn't rule out another COVID-19 lockdown in Ontario in the next 12 months.

"You pair that with the possibility we may not completely clear this first wave before the flu season starts sometime in late fall … I am quite concerned there is a possibility we might not even see the end of the first wave, never mind a second wave of the pandemic come the winter."major step in the province's reopening plan.

Ontario reported its first case of COVID-19 on January 25, a man in his 50s who travelled to China. As the number of COVID-19 cases surged across the province, businesses were forced to quickly close in March. There were serious fears hospitals would quickly become unable to cope with the number of infected patients.

Earlier this month, Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam warned that Canada could see “explosive growth” in COVID-19 cases if it did not reopen with caution.

I agree. We shall know during the next two-three weeks of relaxing restrictions. People want to get back to normal desperately and may Forget the virus is still here.

thanks for letting us know there agenda, I didn't think they would let it end either.

Obviously, with it already surging around the world it’s only a matter of time before it’s back in full force here

The conditioning will continue until we accept it as a normal that government can tell you what to do when they want, without question.

Good luck with that ...
