Region sees dramatic drop in new and active cases, one new death
The Middlesex-London Health Unit (MLHU) is reporting just 26 new cases of COVID-19 Monday, a tie for the second lowest daily report since March, but a glitch in the system may be the reason for the drop.
135,000 newly eligible 18+ adults in Middlesex-London, but only 24,000 shots available over next 4 weeks
A massive cohort of newly vaccine-eligible young adults will face long delays if the region’s health unit can’t secure over 100,000 additional doses.
