After more than two years fighting COVID-19, some medical experts in Ontario say the province has entered a sixth wave.

"There are more cases now than there were a week ago and two weeks ago," infectious disease expert Dr. Isaac Bogoch said Tuesday.Bogoch said Ontario should "watch the hospitalizations closely" over the next few weeks.

With access to PCR testing limited, the exact number of Ontarians infected with COVID-19 remains elusive. Using viral signals in wastewater, the province’s science advisory puts the doubling rate at every 9.6 days.790 people in hospital with COVID-19 on Tuesday, including 165 patients in intensive care.

The rise in hospitalizations is worrying to the CEO of the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario. Meanwhile, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Health says the province has the tools to handle the impact of COVID-19.

90% have 2 doses 50% gave 3 doses = SO WHAT ?!! FAKE NEWS !!!! Fear mongering !! You SUCK !! Live your life !

did you hear that sheep? time for your 10th booster! and make sure you quadruple mask 😷 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Lol, Why is Trudeau shares going down in his pharmaceutical company that he has to make up new stories to poison the rest of the population with his crappy vaccine

Take extra precautions around the less vulnerable or seniors, younger children. And as it's always been, if you're sick, STAY THE HELL HOME UNTIL YOURE BETTER!!!

Gotta learn to live with it just like every other thing that has plagued this world. Ask any doctor, they will tell you that you quarantine the sick, not the healthy. For those who wish to still wear a mask then by all means. Don't punish the ones who choose not to.

Ok, so let's continue to deal and move on

6!!

Hahaha fake news

And Who cares? Like it's literally not a big deal. Just deal with it yall are snowflakes ❄️

Everyone wants to get back to normal. Everyone. But to do so the government has to invest in the right areas. In order to be “open” we need capacity. Capacity is limited due to nursing and HCW shortage. Until that is resolved public health measures need to be in place.

Oh thank God, we thought you would never start the fear panicking again!

DOUG FORD HIDING THE NUMBER OF INFECTED IN ONTARIO 😡😡🤡🤡

What is covid 19?

Previously i never heard of anyone in my life having covid. In the last week or so it seems like its all around me including my own home but we are all vaxxed so it wasnt bad. Only one of 3 of us got it

In the end, we are responsible for our own health.

I call bullshit SARS one and SARS two has never being proven isolated. Just like any other year will always have the flu live with what’s out there please.

6th wave? 🤔 I guess I'm basically sleeping through waves at this point... I somehow missed a wave... 🥴

Liars The 5th one never ended... we just cut testing months ago then kneecapped it's processing ability so it's never caught up lol

Live with a virus that is going to be here forever and keep mutating, like the flu. Live afraid or just live, the choice is yours.

Thank you doctors! Hang onto your relevance.

No matter what it's very prudent to wear mask in crowded indoors only, while avoiding tight closeness of less than 1 arm length (3') & constant hand hygiene these have been helping me avoid Covid for 2+ yrs + blocked Flu tens of years too.

I don’t believe it . It’s speculation. Covid infection figures is not gonna go higher again. We have reached head immunity.

Has anyone heard the rumor Trudeau committee in 2019 said they would shut down business with covid-19. You say what? No way. -Using overblown fear. False blame on covid. ONE PERCENT of victims died with most having pre-existing conditions Fake propaganda and forced regulation.

Oh comin enough of the lies and fear mongering covid is over so what you get a cold get a grip . This has gone on far to long and we the people need to shut these lies down .

I don't believe a word coming out of this government. COVID is a bunch of over hyped BS.

All lies and dung

The forever war is entering phase six. Big Brother will save us. Prepare for your two minutes of hate, and remember to report any of your family and neighbors that criticizes Big Brother.

Oh fuck . Right. Off. HEY ! Guess what ... and this is gubna sound crazy ..but every fall winter I predict there will be more waves ..... woooooooaaahhhhh DUDE

You can enter the 6th inch of my dick

I know of 14 people, including myself who’ve tested + in the last week. Most are already back to regular life. Honestly, I had a worse cold in December.

Yup, cold and flu stuff happens all the time, nothing new

Scary Tactics in full force! If you’re scared stay home let the rest of us live our life!!

So, when are you going to acknowledge seasonality. It's literally following normal respiratory virus infection curves. Delta was the only outlier.

If we hit 7, everyone gets a free Pizza Pizza slice

No 💩 Sherlock.

Stop it. I don’t care. Live with it. We are on the 200th wave of the flu and doing fine.

What is wrong with the Ontario Government. I am not a doctor or even a scientist and predicted letting go of the mask mandate was a terrible idea. Doing so right after spring break no less. Here we are wave 6. Ford do the right thing and advance the election date.

Has nobody else ever played whack a mole? Seriously this is never going to end and the article says the Dr stated NOT to shut everything down...of course there is a wave...more like a speed bump than a big breaker probably

There’s a new flu every year, you should start keeping the running tally on that too!

Meh, We're not afraid. :)

No shock there

GaryCarrHalton Maybe time to reevaluate that mask thing.

Of course they have! If imicron was able to run its course, there would not be anyone left without immunity for BA.2 to infect! ...like the 100 million people of Uganda and Kenya with less than 17% vaccination rates that NO LONGER HAVE COVID-19! Masks save virgins for BA.2

Which wave is the Dog wave? Still looking to Pack-a-Punch
