Though the Province remains in lockdown, the numbers of COVID-19 cases continue to rise.
Ontario reported 3,128 new cases on January 5, with 2,015 resolved and 52 resulting in death. The province has a new total of 197,360 cases with 166,790 resolved and 4,730 deaths.
As the holiday break comes to an end, the numbers refuse to slowdown, especially in the hot spot areas.
Peel Region is showing 614 new cases, along with 778 new cases in Toronto and 213 in York Region.
The province-wide lockdown, which began on December 26, remains in effect for 27 public health unit regions in Southern Ontario until January 23, which, of course, includes Peel Region.
