Global News in Canada shows that as Canada's COVID-19 cases start rising again, Health Canada approved Spikevax, Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine, to be used as a booster shot. Abigail Bimman reports on when Canadian children might finally get vaccinated, and on chief public health officer Dr. Theresa Tam's advice about keeping the virus out as more people gather indoors.
The deadline for a global climate accord has come and gone at the COP26 climate summit, and still, nearly 200 countries haven't made a deal. Crystal Goomansingh explains the sticking points.
As COVID-19 case rise, be careful in the pandemic this winter. Health Canada has approved Spikevax, Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine, to be used as a booster shot. Soon Canadian children might finally get vaccinated. Keep in mind the advice about keeping the virus out as more people head indoors.
There may be bumps in the virus trajectory on the graph over the coming weeks. Daily cases in Canada increased 11 per cent over the past week, and they will probably continue to rise.
The highly contagious so-called Delta virus variant continues to predominate. The risk of surges and disease activity is likely to increase with more time spent indoors. There is more risk with groups of more unvaccinated people.
On Nov. 10, 2020, 4,302 new cases of COVID-19 were reported across Canada, according to data from PHAC.
This year: 2021, on the same day, only 2,601 cases were reported, though they are trending upwards.
