For the third straight day, Saskatchewan is reporting less than 100 total new cases of COVID-19.
In its daily update Sunday afternoon, the province says there were 73 new cases. With 119 new recoveries, the active case count now sits at 1,196.
The new cases are located in the following zones: Far North East, 1; North West, 9; North Central, 8; Saskatoon, 26; Central West, 2; Central East, 6; Regina, 13; South Central, 7; and South East, 1.
After dipping below 100 people for the first time since November on Saturday, there are now 101 people currently in hospital being treated for the virus with 19 in intensive care. That figure includes two out-of-province transfers from Manitoba.
The seven-day daily average of new cases now stands at 103. That is the lowest figure we have seen since November 8 when there were 97.
As of Monday, the age eligibility for second shots is changing as it will be open to residents 60+ or anyone who received their first dose before March 29.
Over 13,600 vaccines were administered across Saskatchewan on Saturday pushing the total amount of those who have received one or both shots to over 800,000
