Toronto, Peel, Windsor-Essex to stay in Stage 2 of Ontario's COVID-19 recovery plan

Twenty-four health units entered into Stage 3 last Friday.

Toronto, Peel and Windsor Essex account for 78 of the 135 new cases of COVID-19 reported by the Ministry of Health this morning. Another 20 were confirmed in Ottawa.

The new cases mark a 0.4 per cent increase in total infections of the novel coronavirus in Ontario, slightly above what has been typical in recent weeks. They come after two days with more than 160 new cases each over the weekend.

Ontario has now seen a total of 37,739 cases of COVID-19 since the outbreak began in late January. Of those, about 88.8 per cent are considered resolved. Another 106 were marked resolved today.

Twenty-eight of the province's 34 public health units reported five or fewer cases in the latest update, Health Minister Christine Elliott noted in a series of tweets.. Of those 28, 18 confirmed no additional cases at all.

There are now about 1,474 active cases of COVID-19 provincewide, according to the Ministry of Health's most recent figures.

Later today, Premier Doug Ford is expected to officially announce which further health units will be given a green light to proceed into the next phase of COVID-19 recovery. Twenty-four units have been in Stage 3 since last Friday.

Ford is scheduled to hold his daily COVID-19 briefing beginning at 1 p.m. ET from Queen's Park. Ford's office says he will be joined by Elliott and Rod Phillips, minister of finance. You can watch the briefing live in this story.
