Thousands of elective procedures have been delayed in Ontario, Canada, due to the coronavirus pandemic, and an estimated 35 people have died because cardiac surgeries were postponed.

Ontario Health Minister Christine Elliott announced on Tuesday that around 35 people have died thus far because their surgeries were delayed over coronavirus concerns, according to researchers associated with the United Health Network in Toronto.

Hospital beds in Ontario are relatively empty, a local watchdog group noted, with the Canadian province having delayed 52,700 surgeries since March 15 and postponing an additional 12,000 elective surgeries a week.

This has happened all over the world. I met a young man today at the vet whose grandmother died waiting for a pacemaker upgrade.

I wonder if Johns Hopkins will create a website to track the deaths from cancelled surgeries and cancer screenings. Just kidding.

The Constitution matters, at least it should.

Kev, I didn't have time to get to that video yet, but I noticed another comment about Canada: they said that when the chicoms say "jump," trudeau asks "how high?"
