If you combine the presumptive positive cases with the confirmed cases, Saskatchewan now has 16 cases of COVID 19.

Fifteen of the sixteen cases are well enough to self-isolate at home with one case in hospital for medical reasons not related to COVID-19.

Dr. Saqib Shahab, the province’s Chief Medical Health Officer, says one case they’ve investigated has not yet demonstrated a link to travel which could mean local or community transmission.

All persons returning from international destinations including the U.S., are required to self-isolate for 14 days upon returning to Canada.

As well, Public Health officials are asking anyone on two specific Sunwing flights to self isolate and actively monitor for symptoms.

Flights affected:

Sunwing WG540 Cancun to Regina
