Regina may have turned a corner recently in its battle with COVID-19, but Saskatoon Mayor Charlie Clark says his city is on “red alert.”
Now, he’s calling on the provincial government to enact further measures to prevent hospitals and intensive care units from filling up, and to help prevent more people from dying or becoming seriously ill.
It’s the latest step the mayor has taken, after holding a news conference two weeks ago asking residents to “buckle down” to prevent the spread of COVID-19 variants, and condemning the recent “freedom rallies” at city parks.
SASKATOON Saskatoon Mayor Charlie Clark is urging the province to implement more restrictions, as COVID-19 cases rise and the city reports its first case of a new variant. The city is nearing 500 active cases and the highly contagious P1 variant, first found in Brazil, was detected in Saskatoon earlier this week. The province does not share how many active cases are linked to variant COVID-19 strains. “I think the writing is on the wall that we have a serious situation ahead of us,” Clark told CTV News. “I’d rather take steps now, have tighter restrictions in place to try and save as many lives as possible. Hopefully, by taking steps early, we can have a shorter lockdown and have less impact on the economy.”
