Health officials in Ontario are reporting 1,315 new cases of COVID-19 over the last two days and 20 more deaths linked to the disease.
The seven-day average for the number of cases reported stands at 597, marking a significant drop from the 655 reported last week.
Ontario did not report COVID-19 case numbers on Thursday due to the federally-observed statutory holiday.
Of the 1,315 cases reported in the last 48 hours, 668 were logged today and 647 were logged on Thursday. Most of the cases reported over the last two days were found in individuals who are not fully vaccinated or have an unknown vaccination status, according to the Ministry of Health.
Right now, there are 278 people in hospital with COVID-19, including 250 patients who are either not fully vaccinated or have an unknown vaccination status.
