Hospitals and emergency departments (EDs) across the country play a critical role in the COVID-19 pandemic. The data collected for these areas can provide a better understanding of resource utilization and outcomes for COVID-19 patients.

From January 2020 to February 2021, there were more than 36,320 hospital stays in Canada (excluding Quebec) for patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19. During the same period, more than 143,810 ED visits for COVID-19 were reported by participating jurisdictions.

Use the data tables to explore the most recent information on hospitalizations and ED visits for patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19. We will continue to update this information as the pandemic unfolds.

Note: April 2020 to February 2021 data is provisional and should be interpreted with caution.
