Another 32 new virus-related deaths were added to the province’s COVID-19 death toll today as ICU admissions saw a slight drop over the past 24 hours.
Provincial health officials say there are now 1,074 COVID-19 patients receiving treatment in Ontario hospitals, down from 1,091 on Tuesday but up significantly from 778 one week ago.
Another 32 virus-related deaths were added to the province’s overall total, including 22 that occurred more than a month ago and 10 that occurred within the past 30 days. This brings the province death toll to 12, 511. Many experts have cautioned that the rise in community transmission marks the beginning of a new wave of the pandemic.
“There is no real data other than wastewater that is clearly going up but nothing is being done. There is really no incremental public health measures that can be considered reasonable. Testing is hard to find and early therapeutics are also difficult to find.”
