Pleased to meet with @cdube_sante, Quebec’s Minister of Health and Social Services, for the Ontario-Quebec Summit 2020. Together, we will promote health preparedness to keep the people of our two provinces healthy and safe. #ONQCSummit2020 With our provincial and territorial partners, Ontario continues to call on the federal government to increase the Canadian Health Transfer to ensure long-term, stable funding for the delivery of high-quality health care. #ONQCsummit2020

Ontario is reporting 76 cases of #COVID19. Due to an issue with iPHIS, updated numbers are not available from 11 PHUs. These 11 units reported a total of eight cases yesterday and while not a direct proxy for today it’s an indication of how many cases may be under-reported. This glitch is another reminder of why it’s so important that we replace the outdated iPHIS with our custom-built #COVID19 system. We’re making great progress: in fact, all 11 impacted units are transitioning to the new system today, at which point 31 of 34 PHUs will be using it.

After a full week of reporting fewer than 100 daily cases, today Ontario is reporting 115 cases of #COVID19. While a slight uptick and an end to our steak, we shouldn’t lose sight of the fact that thanks to your efforts the trend in the province remains downward. Indeed, locally 28 of Ontario’s 34 public health units are still reporting five or fewer cases, with 18 of them reporting no new cases. Yesterday, the province processed 22,275 #COVID19 tests as we continue to lead the country in daily testing.

Today, Ontario is reporting 116 cases of #COVID19, a 0.3% increase. Locally, 29 of the province’s 34 public health units are reporting five or fewer cases, with fully 21 of them reporting no new cases at all. The number of #COVID19 patients receiving care in hospital has dropped significantly from the highs of over 1,000 reported in May. ICU admissions and vented patients have also seen a persistent decline since the peak of this pandemic.

Today marks two years since our government was sworn in. It’s been an honour and a privilege to serve as Deputy Premier and Minister of Health as we've broken down long-standing silos to meaningfully improve the care you receive and help end hallway health care. As we’ve responded to #COVID19, our plan has proven to significantly enhance health system responsiveness and has helped to integrate the care you receive. Looking back to 2018, here's some what we’ve accomplished working alongside our frontline partners:

We’re providing $625,000 to the META:PHI program to directly support standardizing quality improvement initiatives in community-based opioid addictions treatment led by addiction specialists at @WCHospital. META:PHI has led the creation of a made-in-Ontario standardized treatment model for Rapid Access Addiction Medicine (RAAM) services that is actively used by approximately 50 RAAM clinics across the province.

Ontario is reporting 216 new cases of #COVID19 today, a 0.6% increase with 168 of them, or 78%, coming from Toronto, Peel, York and Windsor. Locally, 27 of Ontario’s 34 public health units are reporting five or fewer cases, with 17 of them reporting no new cases at all. While it’s too early to draw conclusions from a single day of data, we’re watching closely for shifts in #COVID19 trends as we gradually reopen the province’s economy and as local public health officials work quickly to contain any spread.

For the eight time in the past nine days, Ontario is reporting fewer than 200 cases, with 161 new cases of #COVID19 today, a 0.5% increase. With 214 more resolved, there are 53 fewer active cases in the province as the persistent decrease in active cases continues. Locally, 29 of Ontario’s 34 PHUs are reporting five or fewer cases, with 18 of them reporting no new cases at all. Over the past two days, we've identified 62 new cases in Windsor-Essex, the result of expanded testing as we enhance our offers to resolve workplace outbreaks.

Today, Ontario is reporting fewer than 200 cases again, with 175 new cases of #COVID19 or a 0.5% increase. With 251 resolved, we continue to see a persistent decline in active cases in Ontario, with 76 fewer today. Locally, 28 of Ontario’s 34 PHUs are reporting five or fewer cases, with 14 of them reporting no new cases at all. Well over a week after the first regions moved into Stage 2, we’d expect to start to see local spikes if reopening wasn’t done safely. Their absence is good news.

This #FathersDay, I’d like to highlight some of the amazing Ontario dads who are helping lead our fight against #COVID19. They make countless sacrifices for our safety and well-being and we owe them an incredible amount of gratitude. First, thank you to my friend Premier @fordnation. Since the very beginning of this pandemic, you’ve worked tirelessly every day to keep the people of Ontario healthy and safe.

Today, Ontario is reporting a slight uptick in our numbers, with 206 new cases of #COVID19 or a 0.6% increase. While this is the first time the province is reporting a daily new case count above 200 in six days, we shouldn’t draw too many conclusions from one day’s data. In fact, with 218 more resolved, we continue to see a persistent decline in active cases, with 12 fewer today and over 1,500 fewer active cases in the province as compared to early last week. Yesterday, Ontario processed a new record number of tests in a single day: 27,387.

The trend continues: for the sixth day in a row, Ontario is reporting fewer than 200 cases, with 178 new cases of #COVID19 or a 0.5% increase. With 246 resolved, we continue to see a persistent decline in active cases, with 68 fewer active cases today. Today, seven more regions move into Stage 2, each of which continue to see low numbers of new cases, indicating their continued readiness move forward. Hospitalizations across Ontario continue to decline, with 20 fewer #COVID19-confirmed cases in hospital.

For the fourth day in a row, Ontario is reporting fewer than 200 cases, with 190 new cases of #COVID19 or a 0.6% increase. While a slight uptick over yesterday, there’s still plenty of good news, including a considerable increase in resolved cases, with 353 more today. Today’s increase in resolved continues a more than week-long trend of daily decreases in the number of active cases, with 1,408 fewer active cases since last Tuesday. Hospitalizations, ICU admissions and vented patients also all continue to decline.

For the third day in a row, Ontario is reporting fewer than 200 cases, with 184 new cases of #COVID19 today or a 0.6% increase. With 218 more resolved, there are 34 fewer active cases in the province. Since Tuesday of last week, there are 1,245 fewer active cases. Having processed nearly 22,000 tests yesterday, Ontario remains the leader in daily #COVID19 testing in Canada and our positivity rate continues to be at all-time lows. Hospitalizations continue to fall with ICU admissions now below 100 for the first time since March 29.

For the second day in a row and the third time in the past four days, there are fewer than 200 new cases of #COVID19 in Ontario, with 181 new cases reported today or a 0.6% increase. This is the lowest day-over-day increase since late March. The downward trend in new cases is happening at a time when testing remains at historic levels, with Ontario having processed over 1M tests since the start of the outbreak. Yesterday, nearly 22,000 tests were processed with the positivity rate remaining at all-time lows.

Today, Ontario is adding 266 new cases of #COVID19, a 0.8% increase and an uptick over yesterday, but the 6th straight day of fewer than 300 new cases. With 351 more resolved, there are 85 fewer active cases, or 914 fewer active cases since Tuesday. Daily testing remains at all-time highs with over 27,000 tests processed yesterday. As we continue to test so expansively, there may be upticks in cases some days. What matters most are trends, which continue to show Ontario on a downward trajectory.

Today, Ontario is adding 203 new cases of #COVID19, only a 0.6% increase. With 505 resolved, there are now 302 fewer active cases. In fact, since Tuesday there are 709 fewer active cases of the virus in Ontario. The vast majority of new cases continue to come from the GTA. Thanks to the considerable efforts of local public health officials, the outbreak in Southwestern Ontario is increasingly under control with only 13 new cases in Windsor today—down from 53 yesterday. Regions proceeding to Stage 2 continue to see few if any new cases.

Overall, the number of new #COVID19 cases today remains relatively stable at 251, or a 0.8% increase. Of these, 59 are in Southwestern Ontario where public health officials are hard at work to contain an outbreak, with the vast majority of the remaining 192 coming from the GTA. Resolved cases continue to increase, with 551 Ontarians now having recovered from the virus today. With only 251 new cases today, that means there are 300 fewer active cases of #COVID19 today as compared to yesterday.
