Ontario reported 2,453 new cases of COVID-19 and 16 more deaths on Saturday.

Saturday's total marks the third straight day that the daily case count has topped 2,000.

Ontario reported 2,380 cases on Thursday but said approximately 280 of those were due to a data catch-up error.

Still, this means 2,100 new cases were reported as of Thursday, which is significantly higher than the rolling average of 1,696 from the past six days.

The death toll is now at 7,292 after another 12 people died while the recovery rate is at 93 per cent.

Today's data is based on almost 60,100 completed tests.

There are 179 COVID-19 positive individuals who are being isolated.

Provincial officials say another 77,740 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine were administered on Friday, bringing the total number of doses up to 1,916,332.

This is breaking news story.

Hospitalizations climbed to 913, according to Ministry of Health data, with 359 people in intensive care and 215 breathing with the help of a ventilator. 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.
