[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 75196094, member: 123415"] A couple of different factors are at play... While I'd certainly agree that Canadians have a more embracing attitude to science in the interest of public well-being, as well as more of the social consciousness to "do the right thing" in many regards...and that certainly plays a part (and they should be commended for it) Population density can't be eliminated from the conversation either. IE: An NYC or LA County, following scientific guidelines to a T, is still likely to have more community spread and higher cases (per capita) than most of the rural areas of Canada where social distancing is the norm. Toronto has less than 3 million in a size of 243.3 mi² New York City has over 8 million in a size of 302.6 mi² Overall, we have over 8 times the population density of Canada. One could easily say that California and NY were following the science more strictly than West Virginia, yet their cases and deaths per 100k dwarf that of WV. [/QUOTE]
