🎉 🥳 We are gladly retiring our vaccine appointment finder tool today! Looking back, it still amazes me what volunteers are capable of. A few tidbits on our vaccine-ontario.ca system behind-the-scenes: @VaxHuntersCan @grassroots_team @VaxToronto @reportmytest

@SusanLeeLaw Hi, this rate includes non-Covid absences. Without pre-Covid data, we can't really make any deduction yet. Maybe post-Covid, we will get a sense.

Absence rate is staying low at 11.7% (as of Wed). Almost at the same level when the mask mandate was lifted. For school board/school breakdowns, see reportmytest.ca/absence.html #OntarioCovidDataTrends #onpoli

Good news... Absence rate is continuing to trend downwards from 13.1% to 11.4% (as of Tuesday). Almost at the same level when the mask mandate was lifted. For school board/school breakdowns, see reportmytest.ca/absence.html #OntarioCovidDataTrends #onpoli

@markegilmore It's tough. Waste water analysis is our best indicator now. We track Ontario school absence rate as a secondary measure. Hope this helps.

Absence rate is tracking downwards from 14.9% to 13.1% (as of Monday) For school board/school breakdowns, see reportmytest.ca/absence.html #OntarioCovidDataTrends #onpoli
