Coronavirus: Trudeau says 2nd wave of COVID-19 "already underway" in parts of Canada | FULL

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made an urgent address to Canadians on Wednesday night, telling them that Canada is “on the brink” of a coronavirus surge.

Trudeau urged Canadians to stick to their social bubbles, wear a mask, wash their hands frequently and keep their distance from other people as the country faces down a looming second wave of the virus that has already claimed 9,238 lives as of this writing.

In a speech to the nation on all major broadcasters Wednesday evening, Trudeau warned the daily case counts are already much higher than they were when the country first locked down in March.

In Canada’s four biggest provinces, the second wave isn’t just starting, it’s already underway.

“The numbers are clear — back on March 13th when we went into lockdown there were 47 new cases of COVID-19. Yesterday alone, we had well over 1,000,” Trudeau said.

“We’re on the brink of a fall that could be much worse than the spring.”
