Step One of Saskatchewan's Re-Opening Roadmap is Now Underway

Thanks to the rapid expansion and delivery of COVID-19 vaccine and the patient and cautious following of public health measures by the public, the province was able to move forward with Step One of Saskatchewan's Re-Opening Roadmap.听 Public health orders have been updated and details on the Re-Opening Roadmap can be viewed at听.

While the restrictions being lifted are no longer mandatory, many are still recommended.听 Only increase your contact with others as much as you feel comfortable.听 Older persons and those with increased risk factors may wish to wait until two weeks after receiving a second dose before attending gatherings.听 Transmission is generally less likely outdoors than indoors.

Step Two of Saskatchewan's Re-Opening Roadmap is tentatively scheduled to begin on June 20.听 If we continue to remain diligent and observe public health measures, we will reach our goal of re-opening our province in the coming weeks.
