“This is the first pediatric death reported in Ottawa in which COVID-19 was identified as the underlying or contributing cause of death. We cannot disclose more about the individual or the circumstances,” Ottawa Public Health said in an emailed response to inquiries from this newspaper.Only five of Ottawa’s COVID-19 deaths have involved people under age 39, OPH reports say. Two were ages 20-29 and two were 30-39. There have been no deaths of people ages 10-19.
Young people, however, make up most COVID-19 infections, with the 20-29 age group accounting for more than 17,000 of nearly 88,000 cases recorded by OPH. Nearly 15,000 cases have been confirmed in children youth ages 0-19.
