May 04, 2022
On Wednesday, Quebec reported 2,176 people in hospital (a decrease of 19 from the previous day), including 78 in intensive care (an increase of two from the previous day).
The province reported 1,630 new cases of COVID-19 and 30 deaths.
Since the start of the pandemic, there have been 1,047,462 confirmed cases, and 15,066 people have died.
The province also reported 7,586 health-care workers absent for COVID-related reasons.
91 per cent of the eligible population in the province (aged five and up) has received at least one dose of the vaccine; 54 per cent have received a third dose and 10 per cent have received a fourth dose.
*The new cases are those reported to the Quebec government only. They are believed to be an underrepresentation of the virus’s spread, given the limited availability of PCR tests and use of home testing kits.
