Ontario is reporting 347 new COVID-19 cases today, and 45 more deaths.
That brings the province to a total of 15,728 cases — a 2.3 per cent increase over the previous day, which is the lowest growth rate in weeks.
More than 60 per cent of the total cases — 9,612 — are ones that have been resolved, and there have been a total of 996 deaths.
In long-term care, there was an increase of 70 deaths to 775, though the numbers come from a separate database from the provincial totals.
