COVID-19 outbreaks in Saskatchewan | Globalnews.ca
Since the novel coronavirus pandemic began, the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) had been alerting the public about businesses that have likely been exposed to COVID-19 by an infectious person.
This is done when health officials are uncertain they have identified all close contacts.
The SHA said COVID-19 alerts will now only be issued when self-isolation is immediately required and PSAs for self-monitoring directives will be discontinued starting on Nov. 14, 2020.
“COVID-19 is everywhere in Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan’s medical health officers are asking all Saskatchewan residents to self-monitor for COVID symptoms, regardless of where you live in this province,” the SHA said on Nov. 13, 2020.
“COVID-19 PSA alerts … will only be issued at the direction of local medical health officers when they have determined a notification of the broader public is required to inform individuals who may have attended a location or business to immediately self-isolate and seek testing.”
According to SHA, these alerts will be issued based on the clinical discretion of the local medical health officer.
“(Alerts will be issued) when the following three key criteria are met: all contacts cannot be notified within 48 hours, there is a resulting increased risk to the public, and the direction is needed for public members in attendance to immediately self-isolate as a result of this increased risk,” read the statement.
Here is a list of all the active COVID-19 outbreaks in the province.
