Chief public health officer Dr. Theresa Tam says the increase in COVID-19 cases in the past week is a cause for real concern.

Dr. Tam says there was an average of 1,123 new cases per day over the past week, up from 380 cases in mid-August.

She says the country is on track for what she calls a big resurgence in several provinces.

While most of the new cases are in young adults, Tam points out the impacts affect everyone.

Quebec reported 471 new cases today and Ontario 335.
