TORONTO — Ontario will provide an update on COVID-19 modelling projections today.
The province says Dr. Adalsteinn Brown, the co-chairman of Ontario’s COVID-19 Science Advisory Table, will present the update this afternoon.
The new data comes two weeks after the province invoked a stay-at-home order in a bid to halt surging case spread.
The province’s chief medical officer of health says a provincewide lockdown, which started in late December, has contributed to a reduction in daily cases.
