    As of November 16, local time, medical institutions or public health officials in many provinces in Canada, including British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec, said that Canada is currently facing the threat of three respiratory infectious viruses, namely the new coronavirus, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza virus
    .
     
    According to the Canadian government, as of November 5, the national influenza virus positive detection rate in Canada reached 11.
    7%, far exceeding the 5% seasonal threshold, indicating that seasonal influenza has begun
    .
    During the same period, the positive detection rate of respiratory syncytial virus also reached 7.
    8%, higher than the annual expected value
    .
    At the same time, a large number of people are still infected with the new coronavirus
    .
     
    Because respiratory syncytial virus is easy to cause disease in children, there is currently a shortage of pediatric beds in hospitals across Canada, many school students are absent from school, and many pharmacies are also short of cold medicine and
    painkillers.
