It explains a lot of Ford's decision making if this is what the Chief MOH believed (or didn't) and what he was passing along to the government for advice. #onpoli Dr. Williams testified that it wasn't until "later in the summer" that he accepted that there was asymptomatic spread of #COVID19 (Here's transcript of Q&A with LTC Commission co-lead counsel John Callaghan.) #COVID19Ontario @ItsSamG Sometimes hearing an emotional song or seeing an emotional scene on TV gets me teary..
