Seven people are in hospital, the highest number of patients at one time so far. Saskatchewan health officials have reported seven new cases of COVID-19, including one new case in the province's far north. The last time the province's health system had nearly as many COVID-19 patients in hospital simultaneously was on March 27 and March 28, when six people required care in hospital. The number of COVID-19 patients in hospital has fluctuated over the last three weeks but remained generally low. Health officials are also expected to provide further insight Wednesday into how the health system is planning for a potential surge of COVID-19 patients needing in-hospital care.
