Fifty-three people remain in hospital with COVID-19, six of those patients have been admitted to the ICU.

Dr. Hinshaw also wanted to reiterate that while Alberta’s case numbers are low, Albertan’s need to continue to practice social distancing. Several new cases that were reported in the Edmonton zone can be linked to two private family gatherings.

“Outbreaks such as this one linked to social gatherings are not completely unexpected now that our gathering restrictions have been relaxed, but I must stress that we have the ability to prevent such cases by continuing to follow public health measures while gathering. You must still keep two metres apart from anyone outside your household or cohort family.”

Dr. Hinshaw went on and applauded some of the family members involved who felt minor symptoms and got tested right away.

Over the last 24 hours the province processed 7,044 tests. No new deaths reported keeping the number of fatalities in Alberta at 143.
