9 deaths, 45 new COVID-19 hospitalizations in Manitoba on Thursday
Number of people with COVID-19 in Manitoba ICUs up 1 to 47
CBC News · Posted: Jan 13, 2022 12:29 PM CT | Last Updated: 1 hour ago
Another nine people have died due to COVID-19 in Manitoba, with an additional 45 cases in hospital Thursday, the provincial coronavirus data dashboard says.
There are now 499 people in Manitoba hospitals who have COVID-19.
One more patient was admitted to an intensive care unit, bringing the total number of COVID-19 patients in ICU to 47.
There are a total of 102 ICU patients in Manitoba on Thursday, including non-COVID patients, which is 30 more than the pre-pandemic baseline ICU capacity of 72.
Manitoba added 1,228 new cases to its total, and Manitoba's test positivity dropped to 44.9 per cent, from 47.2 per cent on Wednesday. However, health officials have said the province's daily case numbers significantly undercount the true number of cases, because many positive cases are not reported.
The province only counts positive PCR tests but has severely restricted access to them, with most symptomatic people only doing self-administered rapid antigen tests. The province does not track RAT results...

Manitoba COVID-19 hospitalizations reach 517, 45 in ICU

Updated January 14, 2022 1:31 pm
Hospitalizations of Manitobans who have contracted COVID-19 have surpassed 500 people.
An 18-person increase Friday brings the province to 517 COVID patients in hospital, and five more people have died.
Manitoba ICUs currently stand at 45 people with the virus, down two from Thursday, public health officials said.
The province also reported 1,215 new cases, however, that number is not accurate, due to changes in how the province is collecting COVID-19 case data. Most Manitobans who request a test will receive a rapid antigen test, and the results are not recorded.

20 deaths, 84 more COVID-19 hospitalizations in Manitoba over weekend
ICU patients reach 107, highest since third wave
CBC News · Posted: Jan 17, 2022 12:31 PM CT | Last Updated: 42 minutes ago
The number of COVID-19 patients in intensive care units increased by two to 47, the same as when the numbers were last updated on Friday. The total number of patients in ICUs reached 107, the highest since the third wave.
There are currently 601 COVID-19 patients in hospitals in Manitoba.
Manitoba's five-day test-positivity rate dropped to 34.5 per cent from 42.6 per cent on Friday.
Two of the latest deaths — a man in his 50s and a woman in her 40s from the Winnipeg Health region — were reported on Saturday.
Another 12 deaths were reported on Sunday. Three of those deaths — a man in his 100s, a man in his 90s and a man in his 70s — were in the Prairie Mountain Health region.
The rest of the deaths on Saturday were in the Winnipeg region, including a man in his 50s, a man and a woman in their 60s, a man in his 80s, four women and a man in their 90s.
Three of the women in their 90s were connected with outbreaks at facilities including at West Park Manor and Actionmarguerite St. Vital in Winnipeg, and Prairie View Lodge in Crystal City.
There were six deaths reported on Monday. Five of those were in Winnipeg, including a man and a woman in their 90s, a man in his 80s connected with an outbreak at the Actionmargeurite St. Coniface personal care home, a woman in her 70s connected with an outbreak at the Oakview Place care home, and a man in his 70s.
The other death reported Monday, a woman in her 60s, was in the Southern Health region.
This brings Manitoba's COVID-19 death toll to 1,463.
Another 717 new COVID-19 cases were confirmed by lab tests on Monday, although health officials have said the true number of infections in the province is likely much higher, because many cases go unreported due to limited testing capacity...

3 more deaths, 19 more COVID-19 hospitalizations in Manitoba Tuesday
CBC News · Posted: Jan 18, 2022 12:32 PM CT | Last Updated: 34 minutes ago
The number of people in Manitoba hospitals due to COVID-19 rose by 19, to a total of 620, and three more people have died from the illness, according to Tuesday's update on the province's online dashboard.
The number of patients in intensive care units with COVID-19 rose by one on Tuesday to 48.
The total number of all patients in ICUs — both those with COVID-19 and those being treated for non-COVID-related issues — dropped to 102, down by five from Monday's number.
Last week, Premier Heather Stefanson said the province's maximum ICU capacity was 116, while the pre-pandemic baseline capacity was 72.
Another 847 cases were confirmed by PCR tests on Tuesday, bringing the province's official total since the start of the pandemic to 111,432, with 40,805 active cases reported.
However, the numbers for new and active cases are considered significant undercounts, as most cases are currently going unreported because PCR testing is limited. Cases confirmed at home by rapid tests are not included in the province's official totals.
Manitoba's five-day test-positivity rate dipped slightly to 34.2 per cent, from 34.5 per cent on Monday...

23 COVID-19 deaths, 52 more hospitalizations in Manitoba over the weekend
3 pediatric COVID-19 patients in ICU, health officials say
CBC News · Posted: Jan 24, 2022 12:31 PM CT | Last Updated: 2 hours ago
Manitoba recorded another 23 COVID-19 deaths and hospitals admitted 52 more patients over the weekend.
The number of COVID patients in Manitoba hospitals resumed its record-breaking pace, which has been going for more than four weeks, with the exception of last Friday when it dropped by one.
On Monday, 716 COVID patients occupied hospital beds in Manitoba.
Despite the increase in hospitalizations, the load of COVID patients in intensive care units got slightly lighter, dropping by one to 49. According to provincial health officials, there are now three pediatric COVID-19 patients in ICU.
There are now 102 patients — both COVID- and non-COVID-related — in Manitoba ICUs. The critical care programs' pre-pandemic baseline capacity was 72.
The daily case count dropped to its lowest point in more than a month, with 536 new cases announced Monday. Over the last three days, the province added 2,112 new cases to its total.
Health officials have said the daily case counts significantly under-represent the true number of new infections because many either have no symptoms or are confirmed by rapid tests, which are not counted in the province's official tally.
Manitoba's five-day test-positivity rate increased to 33.3 per cent, from 32.4 per cent on Friday...
