The crossing of the several-hundred caseload mark comes after the province reported 204 cases on Sunday and 232 cases Saturday, more than double the summer caseload which stayed below 100 cases for around two months.

But their jobs become more hard if people aren't doing their part to minimize their numbers of contacts and exposures should a case occur. He said that Ontario was only testing severely ill patients back in March but now, the testing is "a lot broader". "We need to continue to understand what is happening in different regions".
