Njoo advised everyone, especially young adults, to find "creative ways" to be social amid the pandemic — and he warned those planning to patron indoor bars to be aware of the risks.
"This coincides with increasing reports of individuals contracting COVID-19 at parties, nightclubs and bars, as well as increasing rates of transmission among young Canadians in some jurisdictions across the country," Njoo said.There have been multiple COVID-19 cases tied to Montreal bars in recent days. On July 13, Montreal public health authorities confirmed thattested positive for the virus after visiting bars on the island. Those individuals had visited at least nine bars.
Njoo cautioned Canadians to consider their responsibility to protect not only their own health, but the health of others as they move forward with these looser physical distancing rules. He added that it's "concerning" that a greater proportion of COVID-19 cases are now among young adults under the age of 40. Njoo said that when he was young, he felt he was "invincible" — but that isn't necessarily the case when it comes to COVID-19 cases occurring among young people.
"If they take all the right precautions, wear a face mask, hand sanitizer, etc, they may feel comfortable going into a bar. That's their choice, and they need to understand what the risks might be as we give them the scientific evidence about ventilation," he said. While Njoo said he would have a "higher comfort level" with an outdoor patio compared to an indoor bar, provided all proper health precautions are followed, he plans to stick to watching NHL games from the comfort of his own home for the foreseeable future.
And how many died or on ventilation or admitted to hospital.

Shocker
These fools need to shut up
On a small walk of Vancouver today, I saw California, Texas, Oregon & Washinton licence plates on Robson, Seymour, West Georgia, Burrard, Jervis & in Coal Harbour, I saw Florida. The Americans are here to infect the $hit out of us. What happened to the border being closed?
Take heed people.....proceed with caution......we want the curve to stay flat ......not spoke....we have come along way Ontario let’s not set us back ......stay safe....stay smart❤️🇨🇦
Except they're all fudging the numbers. They're putting every death as the virus plus misreporting the data. Multiple labs have been fraudulently increasing their numbers 10 times higher. Why? A FL man in his 20's death was ruled Covid but he died in a motorcycle accident.
CPHO_Canada VeraEtches how long before we take precautions
Correlation does not equal causation. A doctor should know this.
Shutdown the bars and beaches now
Fakenews will never blame BLM for the increase.
Protests are still good though ? Asking for a friend.
If you are going to go to a bar, make sure you have your protest sign with you. Liberal media has proven that they protect are more effective than masks.
Why are theses doctors all Oriental?
Please....ask him if he would visit a bar regardless of a pandemic .... stupid questions from moronic reporters boycottctvnews fakenews
So more cases? Are they hospitalized, has anyone died, do they have comorbidities? Would be nice to have actual data instead of fear porn and FakeNewsMedia
yeah and it's definitely not cause young people are working in the service industry either, definitely not
Younger people are less likely to have serious health consequences from getting Coronavirus - so, it may actually be a step forward to gaining herd immunity.
Fake News
And what is the rate of death among young people catching this virus Your fearporn is getting weaker and weaker
