Ontario COVID cases, deaths, vaccinations, recoveries, testing
Meanwhile, Ontario also reported 468 new lab-confirmed COVID-19 cases on Monday, though that is an underestimate of the true widespread transmission of the virus due to PCR testing eligibility. The provincial case total now stands at 1,308,068.
The death toll in the province has risen to 13,289 from the previous day as one new virus-related death was added from over a month ago after data cleanup.
There are a total of 1,285,895 recoveries, which is around 98 per cent of known cases. Resolved cases increased by 669 from the previous day.
For vaccinations, of the aged 12 and older population, 91.4 per cent are fully vaccinated. First dose coverage stands at 93.2 per cent. Third dose immunization is at 57.1 per cent — more than 7.3 million Ontarians have received a booster shot.
For young children aged five to 11, first dose coverage stands at 56.7 per cent with 36.5 per cent who are fully vaccinated.
The province administered 3,411 doses in the last day.
