Hey @sflecce, @Andrea_Khanjin, @C_Mulroney, @JillDunlop1 why are students in @SMDhealthunit not getting the same covid protections as students in @YorkRegionGovt, @TheWECHU, @NiagaraRegion or other "designated" areas? #onted

Cases in Simcoe schools are just as frequent.
The limits of cohorts to 15 students in secondary do seem to have an affect.

In @YorkRegionGovt (designated to have max cohorts of 15) only 11% of education outbreaks occur in a secondary school.

In @SMDhealthunit where secondary cohorts of 30, 32, 34,...exist it is 48%.
*full disclosure
The data listed on the Min of Ed website is limited and collated it is not straightforwad

So each day that a school is listed is 1 instance

Ex
A school that has 1 covid case listed for 8 days = 8 instances
A school that has 3 covid cases listed for 5 days = 5
