**Data note from York Region Public Health: Hospitalization data indicates all COVID-19 positive individuals in York Region hospitals and is not limited to York Region residents. The data includes individuals hospitalized for COVID-19 symptoms and those who may be in hospital for another reason but tested positive for COVID-19. Data is pulled from the source hospitals use for public reporting, however numbers may differ based on the timing of data refreshes. 

With the rapid transmission of Omicron and provincial changes in testing eligibility and case management, case counts and outbreaks reported are an underestimate of the true number of individuals with COVID-19 and outbreaks in York Region and Ontario. Case counts and trends should be interpreted with caution.
