OTTAWA Ottawa Public Health says 39 more people in Ottawa have tested positive for COVID-19, continuing a trend of relatively stable daily case counts. According to OPH s COVID-19 dashboard, there have been 9,353 total laboratory-confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the city since the pandemic began. The weekly average of cases per 100,000 population one of the metrics used to judge Ottawa s colour status under the province s framework fell slightly from 30.9 to 28.8.
(Note: A previous version of this article said the per capita rate held steady at 30.9, however that particular figure on Ottawa Public Health s COVID-19 dashboard had not updated at the time of writing, though others had.)
