In all, Quebec has recorded 5,029 deaths from COVID-19, along with 53,185 confirmed cases.
More than 80 per cent of the dead were residents of the province's long-term care facilities, known as CHSLDs, and people with more autonomy living in private seniors' residences, or RPAs.
The province's nursing homes, already short on staff and resources before the pandemic, struggled to contain the virus.
