The Ministry of Health has counted 3,128 new cases on Tuesday for the 24-hour period ending at midnight. It’s a slight drop from the 3,270 cases confirmed the day before. This is the fourth time in the past six days that cases have topped 3,000 but the rise in cases may have paused. The Battle of January is in full tilt. Ontario conducted nearly 35,200 tests in the previous day, which is short of its goal of 50,000 tests per day. The testing backlog stands at 39,805.
Ontario is reporting 3,128 cases of #COVID19 and nearly 35,200 tests completed. Locally, there are 778 new cases in Toronto, 614 in Peel, 213 in York Region, 172 in Durham, 151 in Middlesex-London and 151 in Hamilton.
