As the COVID-19 pandemic spreads, researchers and health professionals have noted large differences in the impact that the infection has on individuals. Whereas some remain asymptomatic and unaware of their infection or experience only mild symptoms, others require hospitalization, ventilation, and may even die. As research evidence accumulates, both nationally and internationally, it appears that certain health characteristics, such as obesity or the presence of chronic conditions, increase the risk of severe outcomes among those who are infected with the novel coronavirus.To better understand which segments of the Canadian population may be vulnerable to severe health outcomes related to COVID-19, Statistics Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada have worked collaboratively to build an index of underlying health conditions in the adult household population. Using information from the 2017/2018 Canadian Community Health Survey, new data tables released today estimate the proportion of the adult household population who may be at greater risk of severe health outcomes related to COVID-19 due to the presence of underlying health conditions.

The data contained in the dashboard describes the COVID-19 cases and deaths by province and health regions. The dashboard is developed by the Public Health Infobase in collaboration with the Health Portfolio Operation Center and the Public Health Geomatics Unit of the Public Health Agency of Canada. The data is provided by the COVID-19 Canada COVID Open Data Working Group (CCODWG) and by the Provinces and Territories through the Public Health Agency of Canada. This health region data is verified by the Public Health Agency of Canada in collaboration with Natural Resources Canada.The population data is provided by Statistics Canada.The chart on the cases and deaths are done the confirmed cases of COVID-19.

Feature point layer showing COVID-19 rapid antigen test kit distribution sites in Manitoba.Feature point layer showing locations of distribution sites that currently have COVID-19 rapid antigen test kits available in Manitoba. The main purpose of this data is to provide the public with the hours of operation for these sites. Distributors include pharmacies, retail stores, and community libraries. This data is populated by Manitoba Shared Health and is updated as needed. This feature layer is used in the Manitoba COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test Kit Availability Map and Manitoba COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test Kit Availability application. For more information on Manitoba’s response to COVID-19, please visit the following site: https://www.gov.mb.ca/covid19/index.html Fields included [Alias (Field Name): Field description] Site Category (Site_Category): Indicates whether the site is a retail business, pharmacy, or community library Site Name (Site_Name): Official business name of the site  Address (Address): Street address of the site  City or Town (City_or_Town): City or town in which the site is located Postal Code (Postal_Code): Postal code that corresponds with the street address of the site  Phone (Phone): Telephone number for the site French Service (French_Service): Indicates whether a site self-identified as having services available in French; if unknown, value is null   Health Authority (Health_Authority): Name of the regional health authority where the site is located Hours of Operation (Hours_of_Operation): Listing of days and times that the site is open to the public Alt Hours Start (Alt_Hours_Start): Start date of when alternate hours are in effect Alt Hours End (Alt_Hours_End): End date of when alternate hours are in effect Alternate Hours of Operation (Alternate_Hours_of_Operation): Listing of alternate days and times that the site is open to the public Latitude (Latitude): Latitudinal coordinate of the site Longitude (Longitude): Longitudinal coordinate of the site

Boundaries developed for use when aggregating cases and reporting during the COVID-19 pandemic in Saskatchewan.The province of Saskatchewan has been divided into six distinct areas for use in reporting the infection rates of COVID-19 during the 2020 outbreak of the virus.

Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) and Quagga Mussel (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis) have a long history of invasion in European and North American freshwater ecosystems, with significant ecological and economic impacts. An ecological risk assessment for these two invasive species for freshwater ecosystems in Canada was completed in April 2022 with the aim to provide science-based guidance to inform management decisions and actions. These include early detection, response planning, and/or regulatory and policy measures aimed at mitigating the potential spread and risk posed by Zebra and Quagga Mussels to Canadian freshwater ecosystems (DFO 2023). The Potential for Introduction (propagule pressure and connectivity), the Potential for Establishment (habitat suitability, including a Calcium-based and Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt)-based model), the Potential for Invasion, and the Ecological Impacts were used to derive Ecological Risk for Zebra and Quagga Mussels in Canada. This assessment did not evaluate the risk to individual waterbodies but rather was conducted at a 9,260 m x 9,260 m grid cell resolution. These high resolution maps are provided here. Maps of Ecological Risk at the sub-drainage level are also provided.

Statistics Canada, in collaboration with the Public Health Agency of Canada and Natural Resources Canada, is presenting selected Census data to help inform Canadians on the public health risk of the COVID-19 pandemic and to be used for modelling analysis. The data provided here show the counts of the population in nursing homes and/or residences for senior citizens by broad age groups (0 to 79 years and 80 years and over) and sex, from the 2016 Census.Nursing homes and/or residences for senior citizens are facilities for elderly residents that provide accommodations with health care services or personal support or assisted living care.Health care services include professional health monitoring and skilled nursing care and supervision 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for people who are not independent in most activities of daily living.Support or assisted living care services include meals, housekeeping, laundry, medication supervision, assistance in bathing or dressing, etc., for people who are independent in most activities of daily living.Included are nursing homes, residences for senior citizens, and facilities that are a mix of both a nursing home and a residence for senior citizens.Excluded are facilities licensed as hospitals, and facilities that do not provide any services (which are considered private dwellings).

Data show where pathogens - fungal, bacillial or viral - have caused damage by reducing growth rates, tree vigor or have killed trees. Examples of forest diseases include White Pine Blister Rust, Armillaria Root Rot etc. The Government of Ontario tracks forest damage events to help proactively manage the detrimental effects to our forests. We monitor the threat and spread of invasive forest pest insect species in Ontario. The data is also important to the Forest Management Planning process in calculating timber volume loss within affected areas. This product requires the use of geographic information system (GIS) software.
