Encouraging signs about the COVID-19 pandemic continue in Quebec.
According to data released on Monday by the Ministry of Health, the number of patients in hospitals due to the coronavirus has risen from 1,367 to 1,347. There were 56 people in intensive care, three more than the day before.
No new deaths were reported. There have been a total of 15,354 deaths associated with COVID-19 since it appeared in Quebec.
The Ministry of Health is also reporting 199 new cases since the previous report. Authorities have identified more than 1.06 million cases of infection since the pandemic began. However, the number of cases listed does not represent the situation because access to screening centers is limited to client priorities.
According to the VaccinTrackerQC site, 3,266 doses of the vaccine have been given in the past 24 hours, mostly secondary booster doses.
The percentage of people aged 5 and over who received the first dose was 91.47%. It was also reported that 87.77% of Quebecers received a second dose and 59.47% received a booster dose.
