Health officials say there have been 404 positive coronavirus cases in Hamilton in the last 10 days.
Last week, Hamilton’s medical officer of health, Dr. Elizabeth Richardson, told city councillors the city was doing “okay” averaging around 20 cases per day during late September and early October.
Under Ontario’s new COVID-19 response framework, the number put Hamilton in the yellow “protect” category of the protocol since the city’s weekly incidence rate was between 10 and 39.9 per 100,000 people.
On Monday, Richardson said cases over the last week are now averaging 43 cases per day and rising.
“Given the behaviours we’re seeing and the things that we hear about during the case management and contact tracing that we do, the numbers are going to continue to get higher and higher unless we change something,” Richardson said.
