Although this article designates low income seniors it is directed at all populations.
The main reason we say low income seniors is that they are more susceptible to catching
the COVID-19 virus and are at the greatest risk of death from the infection.
COVID-19 STATS for - JULY 2024
CANADA - 4,686,303 Total Cases, 52,790 Deaths, 3,954,939 Recovered USA - 111,820,082 Total Cases, 1,219,487 Deaths, 109,814,428 Recovered WORLD - 704,753,890 Total Cases, 7,010,681 Deaths, 675,619,811 Recovered
Public health officials said most of the deaths occurred in long-term care facilities.
Regardless of the death toll the cases of infection are now on the rise again.
Over 52,000
deaths are a lot, but compared to the USA with over 1,200,000 deaths it seems much smaller. Never the less even one death is too many.
THIS HAS BEEN OVER TWO YEARS AND THE CANADIAN DEATH TOLL HAS GONE FROM 9,000 TO OVER 52,000

In the meantime let us remind everyone to keep their distance of 6 feet and to wear a protective face covering.
LET US NOT FORGET TO GIVE THANKS TO ALL THE HEALTH CARE WORKERS and STAFF AT
ALL FACILITIES THAT STAY ON THE JOB TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE FOOD AND MEDICATIONS.
