Two new deaths from COVID-19 in Ottawa over New Year's holiday
CTV
Ottawa Public Health is reporting two new deaths from COVID-19 Sunday and one more ICU admission.
Sunday's update represents two days worth of data, as there was no local update on New Year's Day.
Two people between the ages of 70 and 89 died of COVID-19, bringing the local death toll to 623 residents since the pandemic began.
There is one additional person in the ICU with COVID-19 in Ottawa, but the total number of people in hospital held steady since Friday.
Ottawa Public Health reported 2,425 new cases in the last two days, though with testing availability limited by the province, these cases are likely an undercount. The number of known active cases is above 8,500.
