TORONTO — Ontario’s science advisory table is set to release new COVID-19 projections today.

The new modelling is set to be posted online at 2 p.m., but the weekly briefing from Ontario’s chief medical officer of health that normally occurs Tuesdays at 3 p.m. has been rescheduled to Wednesday.

The latest health and medical news emailed to you every Sunday.

Ontario’s daily case counts have so far remained under 1,000 during the fourth wave, and the graph of Ontario’s seven-day average roughly shows a plateau since the beginning of September.

That’s well under the worst-case scenario in Ontario’s previous modelling, which showed about 4,000 daily cases by now.

Reality is more in line with the best-case scenario, in which cases would have steadily fallen since Sept. 1.
