OK never mind, I found the numbers for Toronto myself here:
https://www.toronto.ca/home/covid-19/covid-19-latest-city-of-toronto-news/covid-19-status-of-cases-in-toronto/
Of the 35,665 cumulative cases in Toronto as of yesterday, hereโs how the Toronto numbers shake outโฆ
Under 40:
16,334 cases = 45.8% of cases
3 deaths = 0.02% death rate [ON rate = 0.02%]
Under 50:
21,256 cases = 59.6% of cases
12 deaths = 0.05% death rate [ON rate = 0.05%]
Under 60:
26,499 cases = 74.3% of cases
54 deaths = 0.2% death rate [ON rate = 0.2%]
Under 70:
29,852 cases = 83.7% of cases
185 deaths = 0.6% death rate [ON rate = 0.5%]
Under 80:
31,742 cases = 89.0% of cases
447 deaths = 1.4% death rate [ON rate = 1.2%]
Over 80:
3888 cases = 10.9% of cases
985 deaths = 25.3% death rate [ON rate = 26.5%]
What does that mean? If youโre under 40 in Toronto, 4% overstates the reality for your age group by a factor of 200 times! And thatโs just using the numbers based on the official case count, not the much higher number of infections actually out there, meaning the real number is even lower.
It means approximately 60% of all officially confirmed cases in Toronto are people under the age of 50, and yet only 12 out of those 21,256 people under 50 died, and who knows what other co-morbidities those 12 also had?
If youโre under 60 in Toronto, the death rate now is 0.2%, aka 20 times less than 4%, and thatโs not even factoring in your health or the fact that the actual undiagnosed infection count is much higher than the official count used for these calculations.
It means if youโre under 70 and in good health in Toronto, the death rate is significantly less than 1%.
If you compare the mortality percentages to the Ontario numbers they are not โmuch worseโ, they are clearly virtually identical, as you would expect them to be since it's the very same virus whether you're in the city and in the country.
Still a risk, needless to say, but not nearly the risk many people want us to believeโฆ
