A new study suggests Canada has vastly underestimated how many people have died from COVID-19 and says the number could be two times higher than reported.
Tara Moriarty, working group lead for the study commissioned by the Royal Society of Canada, said in an interview while most accounts have put the majority of deaths in long-term care, the new data analysis suggests the toll of COVID-19 was also heavily felt outside the homes, in the community.

Only a moron would pitch that the number of Covid deaths in Ontario right now is "spiking". And only a moron considers every stage of layered restrictions a "lockdown". And now you claim I'm lying again. Par for the course you're a lunatic.
