Here’s an update on COVID-19 cases in Ontario as well as in the greater Kawarthas region.
Ontario reported 318 new cases on Sunday, with most of the cases in Waterloo (51), Peel (49), Toronto (45), Ottawa (26), and Hamilton (20). The seven-day average of daily cases has decreased by 31 to 359.
Hospitalizations have decreased by 70 to 266, although more than 10% of hospitals did not submit data for the daily bed census so the actual number of hospitalizations may be higher. Patients in ICUs have decreased by 2 to 333, and patients on ventilators have fallen by 13 to 208.
Ontario reported 12 new deaths on Sunday, including 1 death in a long-term care home.
More than 12.5 million vaccine doses have been administered, an increase of 184,251 since yesterday, with over 85% of Ontario’s total population now having received at least one dose. Almost 2.9 million people have been fully vaccinated, with 148,978 people receiving their second dose yesterday, representing over 19.5% of the total population.
