COVID-19 updates from Canada and the world
- Today there is an increase in hospitalizations in Ontario and Quebec, but reduces the number of patients in intensive care units in both provinces with COVID-19. Ontario reported 16 deaths from the virus, while Quebec reported 27.
- Beijing prepares new facilities to deal with the possible jump in COVID-19 cases, although the number of new cases remains low. A hospital with 1,000 beds, built for SARS, is being renovated, and a quarantine facility with 10,000 beds is being set up.
- The World Trade Organization is one step closer to mediating the waiver of intellectual property rights for vaccines against COVID-19. IN USA, European Union, India and South Africa agreed to a proposed refusal after an 18-month standstill. If the proposal is accepted by the whole council, it could allow developing countries to produce vaccines against COVID-19 without paying licenses to pharmaceutical companies.
Recovery from a pandemic
- A sign that Canadians are returning to work? In Tim Hortons’ “suburban” restaurants across the country, which were hit hard when office towers switched to home-based models, sales were approaching pre-pandemic levels.
- One challenge that managers with employees back in the office face is to face burnout. A non-profit organization has developed mental health tools to help.
- East Coast Music Awards Week returns to Fredericton after two years of canceling COVID. “There is no substitute for collecting and bringing music back to where it belongs live on stage,” said Andy McLean, the event’s executive director.
- Airbnb forecasts revenue for the second quarter above market estimates, relying on accumulated travel demand. The rise in hybrid work has also encouraged people to book longer and more frequent stays in destinations away from cities, boosting rental providers.
