Ontario is reporting another 70 deaths related to COVID-19 while the number of patients being treated with the disease in intensive care continues to drop.

On Thursday, health officials confirmed that at least 3,645 people with COVID-19 are in hospital, including 559 people in intensive care units .About 82 per cent of ICU patients were admitted for reasons related to the disease, while the rest tested positive after being admitted for other ailments.According to a Ministry of Health spokesperson, the 70 deaths reported Thursday occurred over the past 19 days.

With a little over 22,560 COVID-19 tests processed in the last 24 hours, the Ministry of Health says the province’s positivity rate is about 14. 1 per cent. There were also 5,852 cases confirmed on Thursday; although that number is an underestimation as the province remains under stringent testing guidelines.The numbers used in this story are found in the Ontario Ministry of Health's COVID-19 Daily Epidemiologic Summary. The number of cases for any city or region may differ slightly from what is reported by the province, because local units report figures at different times.
