- By Steph. G. Halston.
- (General Dispatch) – Virtual education in Canada will once again be the medium of learning, after schools were forced to close due to new variants of the Chinese coronavirus that reached Toronto.
- A third wave of infections due to covid-19 in its new variants has left students without access to the face-to-face classes they are used to.
- Toronto’s chief health officer called for severe restrictive measures in a statement to mitigate infections that are much more aggressive than in the past.
- Approximately 3000 infections per day are registered in the Canadian population, while the numbers in the intensive care area are really alarming.
- The decision was taken once the situation was evaluated, reaching the conclusion that the contact and closeness of the students represents a favorable scenario for contagion.
- Some neighboring cities made the decision to close their borders again as a security measure in the face of the unfortunate wave of contagions that the nation is once again facing.
- Although the distribution of vaccines against the coronavirus has reached a significant number of people in the population, it has not been enough.
- In summary, some citizen’s state that the government did not take the necessary measures before the outbreak, and these are the consequences, once again the citizens are subjected to a state of confinement.
