Ontario’s COVID-19 death toll hits 10K with 3 more virus-related deaths confirmed today
Ontario is reporting close to 700 new COVID-19 cases and three more virus-related deaths, pushing the province’s virus-related death toll to 10,000 today.
Provincial health officials logged 687 new infections on Tuesday, down from 788 on Monday but up from 613 one week ago.
Unvaccinated travellers over the age of 12 barred from planes and trains as of today
Unvaccinated travellers over the age of 12 won’t be able to board a plane or train in Canada beginning today, and a negative COVID-19 test will no longer serve as a substitute for most people.
The policy came into effect on Oct. 30, but the federal government allowed a short transition period for unvaccinated travellers who could board as long as they provided a negative molecular COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours before their trip.
