Dr. Deena Hinshaw provided details on the province's fifth, sixth and seventh cases of the novel coronavirus at a press conference in Edmonton. All seven Alberta cases have been confirmed, Hinshaw said. "We will continue taking steps to manage wait times," Alberta Health spokesperson Tom McMillan said in an email. All of the first four Alberta cases were travel-related, Hinshaw said Sunday. "The family was in contact with [Alberta Health Services] regarding someone they had been in contact with that had tested positive for the coronavirus," Monty said.
