OTTAWA, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- Canadians will decide whether there is a second wave of COVID-19 as the country is at a crossroads in its fight against the pandemic, according to the projections by the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) on Tuesday.

As the COVID-19 pandemic is accelerating in the country, the PHAC warned that if Canadians don't step up preventative measures, the coronavirus could spread out of control and trigger a wave of infections bigger than the first one.
