As the number of COVID-19 cases in Saskatchewan decline, so will the number of COVID updates provided by the Ministry of Health.
In Thursday’s weekly epidemiological report, the provincial government revealed it was moving from weekly updates to monthly reports.
“In recent weeks, COVID-19 surveillance indicators suggest a decreasing trend in COVID-19 infections,” the ministry said in its report. “As we move into the summer months, the Ministry of Health will be transitioning to monthly COVID-19 situation reports.”
The province moved from daily reporting to weekly updates in early February.
The final weekly report will be issued June 30. It will be followed by a three-week report on July 21 and the first monthly report on Aug. 18.
“Saskatchewan residents should continue to do their own personal risk assessment over the summer ..,” chief medical health officer Dr. Saqib Shahab said in a statement.
“We will continue to ensure that people have access to information on a monthly basis, through detailed public health analysis, and more frequent reporting if concerning trends emerge.”
