Saskatchewan Health reported today 42 new cases of COVID-19.  31 of the new cases are in the South, six are in the Central Region, four are in the Saskatoon region and one is in the North.  That brings the provincial total to 923, 114 cases are considered active, 794 people have recovered and 11 people are in hospital.

They warn there are a growing number of COVID-19 positive cases and rising levels of transmission within communities and communal living venues in southwest and west central Saskatchewan.  While some cases have links to communal settings it is crucial to note that there are also several other unrelated cases in this geographical area.  This overall increased level of COVID-19 activity means there is an increased risk of transmission to the public.
