Public Health is now releasing more information about the COVID-19 pandemic in Niagara.

Instead of only releasing the number of confirmed and resolved cases in the Region, Public Health is now providing additional statistics on its website.

This includes the age demographic, the number of patients in long-term care and retirement homes and how local COVID-19 patients were exposed to the virus.

It’s also reporting the number of COVID-19 related deaths; we currently have 10.

You can find all that information online here.
