Ontario reports 857 COVID-19 hospitalizations, no new deaths
Ontario health officials say there are currently 857 people in hospital with COVID-19, including 168 patients in intensive care.
Officials also reported no new more deaths due to COVID-19. Since the start of the pandemic, 12,470 have lost their lives due to the disease. The province reported 2,248 new cases of COVID-19 on Monday, but health officials have warned that number is an underestimate due to testing limitations and backlogs.
With 11,195 tests processed in the past 24 hours, the Ministry of Health says the province's positivity rate is about 19 per cent. Ontario’s positivity rate has not been this high since January.
