COVID in Ottawa: hospitalizations drop slightly

The City of Ottawa is seeing a slight drop in the number of people hospitalized with active illness related to COVID-19, but other indicators show the virus is continuing to spread.

Ottawa Public Health reports 17 people hospitalized with an active COVID-19 infection on Monday, up from 19 on Friday. There is one person in intensive care with COVID-19, compared to zero.

However, the seven-day average of the city’s sewage virus signal hit another all-time high on Monday.

OPH hospitalization figures only represent Ottawa residents who are hospitalized with an active case of COVID-19. Local hospitals are reporting higher numbers, which include patients who were admitted for reasons other than COVID-19 but tested positive and patients who are not from Ottawa.

Here is an overview of the number of COVID-19 patients in each hospital:

  • The Ottawa Hospital: 47 patients
  • Queensway Carleton Hospital: 12 patients
  • Montfort Hospital: 14 patients
  • CHEO: Three patients

OPH reported 502 new lab-confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the city on Monday. The daily case count is an underrepresentation of the true level of COVID-19 in the community, as PCR testing in Ontario remains limited to certain high-risk populations.

No new COVID-19-related deaths were reported in the capital on Monday. To date, 765 Ottawa residents have died after contracting COVID-19.

Four new outbreaks have been reported in long-term care homes, retirement homes, hospitals and other facilities in Ottawa.

Across the province, authorities have reported 1,090 COVID-19 hospitalizations and three more deaths.
