A seniors' home in Toronto says a total of 25 residents have died from COVID-19.

Eatonville Care Centre, in the city's west end, says the number has jumped due to new Toronto Public Health reporting guidelines.

Executive director Evelyn MacDonald says the deaths of nine residents due to unknown causes can now be attributed to COVID-19.

MacDonald says there are 49 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the home with six more test results are pending.
