Quebec is reporting 32 more COVID-19 deaths today, bringing the provincial total to 360.
Premier Francois Legault says there are 13,557 confirmed cases of the virus in the province, an increase of 711 cases in one day.
There are 879 cases requiring hospitalization, of which 226 are in intensive care.
Legault says 40 privately owned long-term care homes were inspected across the province over the weekend after 31 deaths were reported at a Montreal-area private residence.
He says the situation is stable in the residences, and most are providing adequate care, but four or five are being monitored.
