The 213 new infections mark a slight increase from the 209 cases reported on Saturday and the 200 cases on Friday.

The seven-day rolling average of daily COVID-19 cases continues to drop and now stands at about 228, down significantly from 278 the previous week.

This is also the eighth day in which the daily case count has been below 300.

The province’s positivity rate has increased to about 1.3 per cent, according to the Ministry of Health. Just under 19,000 COVID-19 tests were processed in the last 24-hour period.

Ontario sees 170 new COVID-19 cases as second-dose vaccine appointments open to ages 12 to 17
Premier Doug Ford commits to maintain wage increase for personal support workers
CBC News · Posted: Jul 05, 2021 7:47 AM ET | Last Updated: 2 hours ago

Ontarians aged 12 to 17 became eligible to book an accelerated second dose of COVID-19 vaccine Monday, as Premier Doug Ford said he will maintain a wage increase for personal support workers introduced during the pandemic.

Speaking to reporters, Ford said it is a "guarantee" that his government will keep the temporary $3 per hour wage bump for the workers who staff long-term care homes and similar facilities. He made the comments during a funding announcement in North Bay, but offered no further details.

The wage increase, which was implemented in October, is currently set to expire on August 23. It affects about 158,000 workers in home care, long-term care, public hospitals and social services.

In response to follow up questions to Ford's office from CBC News, a spokesperson declined to say whether the pay increase would simply be extended further or made permanent.

The spokesperson said that while Ford has said he is committed to the wage increase, the government is "still trying to figure out how to make it happen" and that there is "a lot of work to do," adding that it is "easier said than done."

Meanwhile, Ontario logged its fewest number of new cases in nearly 10 months this morning.

Today's case count of 170 is the lowest since September 10. It is also down from last Monday, when Ontario saw 210 further infections.

The additional cases come as labs completed almost 13,000 tests and Public Health Ontario recorded a provincewide positivity rate of 1.3 per cent.

The seven-day average of daily cases fell to 210...
