Ontario reported a slight increase in the number of people hospitalized due to COVID-19 since one week ago, but other indicators, including the number of cases and the positivity rate in PCR tests, continue to decline.
The Ontario Science Advisory Table previously estimated that community virus transmission likely peaked earlier this month at around 100,000 new cases per day, however, hospitalizations are considered a lagging indicator and may continue to rise until May.

According to the latest data released by the Ministry of Health on Monday, there are now 1,455 people hospitalized with COVID-19, an increase of about 12 percent from this time last week (1,301).
