Data note from York Region Public Health: With the rapid transmission of omicron and recent provincial changes in testing eligibility and case management, case counts and outbreaks reported on the interactive dashboard are an underestimate of the true number of individuals with COVID-19 and outbreaks in York Region. Case counts and trends should be interpreted with caution. Public health units across Ontario are prioritizing case management of high-risk individuals and settings. Workplace outbreaks are no longer being reported.
