Ontario is reporting 1,822 new cases of COVID-19 today, a slight decrease from yesterday's record high of 1,855.
The province also recorded 29 more deaths related to the virus since its last daily update.
Health Minister Christine Elliott says 566 of the new cases are in Toronto, and 516 are in Peel Region.
Both regions were placed in the grey or "lockdown" stage of the province's pandemic plan on Monday, but officials have said it could take at least two weeks to see any improvements related to the tougher restrictions.
Another 145 of the new infections are in York Region, with 105 and 102 in Waterloo and Hamilton, respectively.
Today's numbers show that 595 people are currently hospitalized with COVID-19 in the province, an increase of 54 since yesterday.
The province says 155 COVID-19 patients are in intensive care units at this time, and 99 are on ventilators.
It says nearly 55,100 tests were completed since the last report, and 1,510 more cases are considered resolved.
