Province one per cent away from Step Three threshold

Jun 14, 2021 | 2:15 PM

The Government of Saskatchewan is urging residents to get vaccinated, especially with the province so close to beginning Step Three of the the Re-Opening Roadmap. If just one per cent of Saskatchewan adults get their first COVID-19 vaccine shot in the next six days, the province will begin Step Three.

Currently, 69 per cent of those 18 and older have now received their first dose.

Another three per cent of first dose vaccinations of eligible Saskatchewan residents will mean a lifting all remaining public health restrictions on July 11.

The province does now have over 900,000 vaccines administered in the province with an additional 9,928 reported doses bringing the total number of vaccines administered in the province to 903,442.

The 9,928 doses of COVID-19 vaccine reported today were administered to residents living in the following zones: Far North West, 21; Far North Central, 10; Far North East, 25; North West, 1,026; North Central, 690; North East, 136; Saskatoon, 3,737; Central West, 93; Central East, 664; Regina, 2,546; South West, 59; South Central, 182; and South East, 456. There were 283 doses administered with zone of residence pending.
