Ontario is reporting just under 300 new COVID-19 cases today as the province’s active caseload dips below 3,000 for the first time since September.

Ontario to enter next step in its reopening plan on June 30, personal care services can reopen
Ontario will move to the next step in its reopening plan on June 30, allowing most personal care services to reopen while also permitting larger outdoor gatherings of up to 25 people and smaller indoor gatherings of up to five people.
The province wasn’t actually supposed to enter step 2 in its reopening plan until at least July 2 but in recent days Premier Doug Ford had hinted that his government would consider an earlier reopening based on rapidly improving public health indicators and steadily declining case counts.
Covid criminalized haircuts. What a world.
