Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada's chief public health officer, speaks during a news conference on Parliament Hill, in Ottawa, on May 6, 2020.Canada’s chief public health officer says a COVID-19 outbreak gripping Saskatchewan’s far north is an area of concern.Health officials in Saskatchewan say the novel coronavirus arrived in the Dene village of La Loche, 600 kilometres northwest of Saskatoon, last month via travel from an oil sands work camp in northern Alberta.
During her daily briefing in Ottawa, Tam said there’s a significant number of health workers going door-to-door in La Loche to search out infections. It says a staff member at the Meadow Lake Hospital has tested positive for COVID-19 and the case is believed to be connected to community transmission. Earlier, the health authority reported an infected patient from La Loche had stayed at the Victoria Hospital in Prince Albert.Perry Bellegarde, national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, has called the northern outbreak alarming.
Premier Scott Moe has said testing and contact tracing have been ramped up, so he expects the number of infections in the region to keep rising.
