Is scientific and medical advice leading Ontario's COVID response?

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Guests: Kenyon Wallace and May Warren, Toronto Star reporters The Ontario Science Advisory Table has given scientific data, modelling projections and recommendations to the Ontario government since the beginning of the pandemic. But in the midst of a worsening third wave, there is concern the advice is not being taken by the provincial government who, in several instances, have instituted policy that is counter to what the science and data say. Pressure against the government grows as doctors and health experts are becoming more outspoken against the decisions being made in Ontario.
