1/ As @bruce_arthur reports MOHs were shown the original "framework" which had thresholds that would have made sense for mitigation and were FAR lower than what was ultimately passed. Some MOHs requested additional and logical restrictions be added in fact.
2/ BUT when the plan was finalized "the thresholds were much, much higher" "And "red had garishly high thresholds"
as reported. To put it bluntly the "new framework" is utterly useless and has changed the modeling from 1200 cases a day to a projected 6500 which would exceed

3/ the trajectory of European countries already in lockdown.
Williams, who Ford has repeatedly shown has the most influence and trust of the premier, has shown time and time again he does not comprehend the seriousness of what we face and does not have even a minimal

4/ grasp of modeling and what the numbers mean. He does not have the ability to react quickly to the
the terrifying path Ontario finds itself on, in fact, he doesn't even seem to vaguely understand it.

5/ Yesterday he babbled about possible mutations having made COVID less lethal: the simple answer to that is NO, it's medically irresponsible, and the fact our CMOH considers it a possibility is *horrific*
6. and further proof he is well over his head and completely incapable of doing his job.
Other gems of incoherency he spewed included that he was feeling good about the numbers in the summer, WE weren't, we were warning of exactly what was coming in October and November.

7/ Ford was told and Ford was aware, and any claim he finds these current numbers a "surprise" is a mistruth.
To repeat: During a pandemic, you can never rest on your laurels you must use them as motivation to redouble your efforts to keep a semblance of control over the enemy.

8/ We have been repeatedly lied to, the government is still defending a "mitigation" plan not even minimally effective and our CMOH has shown time and time again his incompetence is of a level inexplicable to medical professionals. He must immediately resign or be fired
9/ because the road to disaster we're on is going to take a detour through hell with him in charge.
Ford must start acting as a leader. Leaders have to make tough decisions in tough situations: it's not about being *liked* when you're premier Doug, it's about being respected.

10/ The first thing you can do to finally gain respectability is to fire Williams and hire a CMOH who will act quickly, understand the situation we're in, and start leading us out of this. The time to act was weeks ago
11/ Even with an immediate full lockdown we're going to see deaths and ICU admissions of an appalling and tragic level and this was *so* avoidable.
