Book excerpt: Provincial and territorial government officials currently use ICU capacity and hospital utilization numbers as the benchmark to establishing or re-introducing vaccine certifications and/or restrictions. These two categories are lagging indicators. As a result, the healthcare system is impacted and stressed prior to government intervention. To avert increases in the number of Covid-19 ICU cases and hospital utilization (burdening the healthcare system), provincial and territorial governments require leading indicators of future Covid-19 case growth. Government may then choose to apply appropriate restrictions earlier, therefore allowing for improved Covid-19 case containment. The charts provided within this document, provide three to four week lead time over conventional epidemiology modeling. Indicators such as MACD, RSI, Channel Identification, and Head and Shoulder pattern recognition are leading indicators of future changes in case counts. 9,12, and 50 day exponential moving averages are utilized compared against a seven day simple rolling moving average. Addressing the results these indicators provide BEFORE Covid-19 case counts begin to impact ICU capacity and hospital utilization circumvents future healthcare capacity problems and thwarting application of further/re-introduced harmful restrictions.
