OTTAWA -- Public Health Ontario is reporting 36 new cases of COVID-19 in Ottawa, on the second day in a row where more than 2,000 cases were reported provincewide.

On Tuesday, Health Minsiter Christine Elliott said part of the reason more than 2,200 new COVID-19 cases were reported was because the data was pulled slightly later than usual, leading to an overestimate.

The province has also surpassed 4,000 deaths since the start of the pandemic. The figures in Ottawa come after Public Health Ontario removed nine cases from its COVID-19 total for the region on Tuesday.

Ottawa Public Health reported 13 new cases on Tuesday. Ottawa Public Health will have the latest local figures at around 12:30 p.m. This is a breaking news story.
