Tam is predicting the sky is falling again. She offers no logical explanation for it.
The conservatives and media are demanding an explanation. The real agenda is about to show its face.
"We live in an era of fear driven by government officials and politicians at all levels who continue to try to control the lives and businesses of the citizenry without justifying their actions. On Friday it was the federal government’s turn to try and use shock and awe on the public."
"Due to the appearance of new variants, unless we have new, harsher, stricter public health measures then we will have more than 20,000 cases a day of COVID-19 by early April Dr. Theresa Tam said. If current public health measures are lifted then we will have 20,000 cases per day by early March, just two weeks away."

"The graph left infectious diseases experts scratching their heads. “What are the underlying assumptions?” Dr. Martha Fulford, an assistant professor at McMaster University and infectious diseases physician at Hamilton Health Sciences, told the Sun."
“For me, a model is only as good as the data inputted and we need to know what the underlying assumptions and the data are. Why is their modelling so different from the modelling everywhere else?”
"The Center for Disease Control in the U.S., for example, forecasts a decrease in cases over the same timeline as Dr. Tam’s graph shows the rocket ship-like trajectory."
"Michelle Rempel, the Conservative shadow minister for health, asked Public Health Agency of Canada representatives to explain how they came to this forecasting, but they were unable to offer answers."

"The problem with making pandemic decisions based on fear is that fear is limitless and immeasurable. If Toronto stays locked down until March 9, as Tory and de Villa want, there will still be reasons to fear the virus variant on March 10."
"What will the next layers of the argument be? When spring comes, people will be tempted to get out and socialize more. Better lock down. When summer comes, not everyone will have been vaccinated. Better lock down, just in case. Maybe things could reopen in the fall if everyone is vaccinated, but even then, you know how the virus can flare up. Better lock down."
