There were another two COVID-19 related deaths in Lanark, Leeds, and Grenville this week.
New numbers from the health unit show the tally since the beginning of the pandemic has hit 139 in our region.
There is some positive news in the report though as the number of new high risk cases continues to decline, if not stay flat. There were 62 this past week, down by two.
Hospitalizations are up to 12, an increase of three week-to-week, but there are no patients in the ICU or on ventilators.
Outbreaks are down by a couple and now sit at four. All are in congregate care settings and account for 34 cases.
