COVID-19 has changed. Should our outdoor behaviour shift too? On Wednesday, the SHA prepared a statement that said a medical health officer had declared an outbreak in relation to an outside event that took place in Saskatchewan’s southwest, and that at least 21 coronavirus cases that included variants of concern had been connected to it so far.The government’s outbreak website has been updated to include “a recreational party in the community” of Maple Creek.Saskatchewan’s health minister was pressed about the situation on Wednesday, and again on Thursday.
Paul Merriman expressed disappointment and added that he heard the gathering exceeded the 10 person cap explicit under existing public health orders.
