Elliott says the new cases are largely the result of localized increases with 17 cases in Peel, 27 in Toronto and 28 in Windsor-Essex.
She adds 27 of 34 Public Health Units are still reporting five or fewer cases, with 16 of them reporting no new cases.
Ontario added four new COVID-19 related deaths, with the death toll now at 2,793.
There are now 40,870 confirmed cases, with 90.8 per cent considered resolved.
