COVID-19 in Ottawa: Child under 10 hospitalized - CTV Edmonton

OTTAWA -- A child under 10 has been hospitalized with COVID-19 in Ottawa as active cases of the virus continue to increase.

The child is one of 11 people in hospital with the virus in Ottawa hospitals. One person in their 80s is in the ICU.

Ottawa Public Health reported 26 new COVID-19 cases on Monday, a day after officials confirmed the Omicron variant arrived in the capital.

The 26 cases are a decrease from the 61 on Sunday and 45 on Saturday reported by Ottawa Public Health. Sunday's case count was the city's highest since May.

The child in hospital is the 11th person under 10 years old to be hospitalized with COVID-19 in Ottawa during the pandemic.

Ottawa Public Health also provided the latest vaccine numbers for children between the ages of five and 11, who started receiving their shots last week. The health unit says nearly 8,500 children received their first doses from Friday to Sunday.

Active cases of COVID-19 in Ottawa sit at 347, two more than on Sunday.

Provincewide, Ontario health officials reported 788 new cases and three new deaths from the virus on Monday.
