Here’s an update on COVID-19 cases in Ontario as well as in the greater Kawarthas region.

Over the past two days, Ontario is reporting 483 cases — 284 yesterday and 200 today, for an average of 242 per day.

Hospitalizations have decreased by 72 since June 30 to 179, but more than 10% of hospitals did not submit data for the daily bed census on Canada Day so the actual number of hospitalizations may be higher. Since June 30, ICU patients have decreased by 19 to 252 and patients on ventilators have decreased by 21 to 160.

Ontario is reporting 28 new deaths over the past two days (19 yesterday and 9 today), including 10 in long-term care homes.

Over 15.1 million vaccine doses have been administered, an increase of 413,361 over the past two days, with over 85% of Ontario’s total population now having received at least one dose. Almost 5.2 million people have been fully vaccinated, an increase of 377,769 over the past two days, representing over 35% of the total population.
