The Middlesex-London Health Unit (MLHU) reported 10 COVID-19 cases on Wednesday.
The total number of cases now stands at 14,582, with 89 active cases (a decrease of two), 14,247 recoveries (an increase of 12) and 246 total deaths (unchanged).
The latest death, reported Nov. 2, involved a woman in her 70s not associated with a long-term care or retirement home. She was unvaccinated.
Of the 89 active cases, 28 involve kids aged 11 or under at a rate of 43.5 cases per 100,000 population. That cohort that is not yet eligible for vaccination.
The age group with the largest number of active cases is among the 40-64 age group with 32 active cases, though the rate of active cases per 100,000 population is less than half that of those under 12, at 20.0 per 100,000 population.
