Waterloo Region reported five new cases for today (3.2% of the active cases) -- with two more cases for yesterday (now 13 new cases, 8.0% of actives). 76 new cases for the week (-9), averaging 7.0% of active cases. 156 active cases (+13 in the last seven days).
For the time being at least, the region appears to be handling the second wave better than some other parts of Ontario. We'll have to wait and see whether Oktoberfest has an impact on that, though.
The region reported a total of 131,533 tests, up by 43,957 in the last four days. That surely cannot be correct so need to wait for either a correction or clarification.
Ontario reported 554 new cases today with a seven-day average of 476, still going up. 323 recoveries and four deaths translated to an increase of 227 active cases and a current total of 4,791. A weekly total change of +1,213 active cases. 38,375 tests for a 1.44% positivity rate. The positivity rate is averaging 1.22% for the past seven days.
The new cases are 11.6% of the number of active cases, averaging 11.4% over the past seven days.
ICU patient count is at 30 (+1). Total hospital population is up to 137.
